February 8 at 1:20pm · Edited ·
17" flowformed 6UL going into production late March. Should have wheels here mid May. Offsets will be published when we begin accepting pre-paid orders in March. 17x9 will be about 16.9 lbs, 17x10 about 17.8 lbs. Our dealers will have these too of course. "CAD rendering" means it is a computer generated image from the design and engineering software, not a photograph of a wheel. We will post pics of the samples when we have them in about 4 weeks. More widths and bolt patterns coming later in 2015. First production run:
17x9 5x114.3
17x9 5x100
17x10 5x100
17x10 5x114.3
S2000, FRS, BRZ, STi, NC, FD, RX8, WRX, Legacy, TSX, RSX and more"

Any plans for 17x8 with a 37ish offset?

I'm guessing they want one wheel for both FRS and GD wrx guys. You need an offset of like +40 or higher to easily fit that

About time. I've had a set on the MX5 for years and one is a bit curbed. Only took them 4 years to do another production run

Im pretty sure if you call them they will sell you single replacements....they are just saving whatever stock they have for that exact purpose.


Might want to tell them its broke and unuseable though

They have been out of the 17x9 for a very long time.

These might put me back in the market for a 17x9 if the offset is right.
