STI BRZ Springs
I know these are pricey. Seems around the $599 mark for a set of four. I have done some reading on lowering. I was not planning on doing this, as a full 1" drop might be too low for the roads around me. But a 15mm drop, that still has similar stock ride qualities would be great! I will be running a set of 18 X 8 35mm offset wheel's with 235/40 R18 tires. Will these still fit with a 15mm drop? And where can I purchase these STI springs from? Anywhere in Canada? Thanks.

There are other springs that are just as good for less money. STi charges more for the name. Look into Swift and RaceComp Engineering springs in the suspension section.
For the wheels, check the stickies in the wheel section for a fitment guide. I'm pretty sure yours will still fit with a very minor drop, but I'm not the expert. |

I did the RCE yellows on my car because they work well with stock suspension and are very close to the drop with STI pinks. I'm super happy with it so far!

Thanks for the info guys. I emailed the supplier in BC. around 4:00. Waiting for a response. If anyone can confirm the RCE yellow springs will work with my above mentioned tire/wheel combo as well a 2015 BRZ, I will order a set. Haven't been able to confirm they fit a 2015. I assume they would. 20mm drop will remove the wheel gap nicely.

Springs are unchanged for 2015, so RCE yellows (or any other aftermarket) will fit perfectly.

Any other Canadian suppliers of RCE BRZ 20mm drop yellow springs? Been searching for a while with no luck.

They're the only ones I found back when I was looking. I ended up going with Swift springs because I could get them locally and save on shipping costs.
