I honestly think its completely random. My FRS has the Turanza's and 2 of my other friends FRS's have the Primacys

Does anyone else find it ridiculous that you literally cannot find what the stock wheels the FRS/BRZ comes with on Google. It's actually driving me kind if insane that this information is not out there.

I'm starting to think the Scion's got the bridgestone tires and Subaru's got the Michelin's.

Nope, Michelins on the Canadian cars both FRS and BRZ. Maybe his was just a dealer thing?

What? I don't need no wheels. I was just musing about the fact you literally cannot find out what kind of wheels the FRS/BRZ comes with stock.

Cheapest ugliest thing you can find and won't break but grab a microfibre towel and wrap/ tape it around the brush. Done.
Total cost? 1$ micofibre + 0$ found in trash brush or from neibour.

I was searching what kind of wheels the stock FRS/BRZ came with. No avail so far. So far me and another user say we got our cars with Bridgestone while everyone else says Michelin. I don't understand how this information is not out there.

Oh you mean tires not wheels! It sort of appears random with the vast majority getting the Michelins. The official tire (as per Scoobs list) is the Michelin. This info is all over the place on the internet. Not too sure why some have the Bridgestones though.

Edit: OOOPs to late.

lupindub · 09-03-2015, 03:49 PM

Yes I meant Tires. doh.

Yeah, I'm in Chicago, and bought my car here, and it came with the Primacy summer tires.
