F40 / Lotus Esprit OZ type wheels ?
Hey guys what's up.
Looking for wheels for the BRZ and I am in love with the five star style of the F40, the Lotus Esprit or even the Regamasters Evo look. Unfortunately, these wheels are either all extremely rare, no where near affordable or in Euro specs. After doing some research, I've found a couple manufacturers that makes similar style (3sdm, Fifteen52 to name a few) but wondering if you have any other ideas. Mainly looking for 3pc. Pic for attention ![]() Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You're right, should have specified. I have a budget of around 2500 and understand that 3pc will not be accessible new, but I need brand to look forward to in the used market. Regarding size, 17 preferred or 18, in the 8.5-9.5 ! Thanks man Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It is going to be hard to find in 5x100 in larger widths/sizes than 8inch.
More likely than not you would have to- -redrill -re-lip/rebuild/re-barrel -adapters The f40 style is more euro style so check out VW forums, I forget which car uses 5x100. Ssr Koenig is a pretty beastly wheel if you can find them. |

Golf MK IV and earlier and Polo as well as older generation Audis used 5x100 but widths are going to be relatively narrow. I have Desmond Regamasters on my car as my daily wheels in 17x8 +35 which is the biggest 17" 5x100 fitment from Desmond (and of course they are getting harder to find as they are long out of production).

There is a nice set of 5x100 Futura wheels in Edmonton for sale. I like to look of the Futura...personally more of a fan of the Oz wheels that came of the Esprit Final Edition.

oz futuras in 5x100 seem to be best fitting for your wants with all the boxes checked.
if i were you and i was working with a 2500 budget, i'd buy the set in the link above for $1500 and then just use the money leftover to get the wheels re-barreled.

So no one suggested wheels by Fifteen52?
![]() everything they offer can be bought in custom sizes. The wheel is even called the F40
