Ack, those are both RCE Yellows actually so you might want to edit the post. We did a name change. The Blacks will be an extremely mild drop and we have not begun R&D on them.

These wheels are awesome!! I'd like to see, how it fits the gt if they are black coloured because i ordered the car in dark grey and here in Europe, we have only a few pictures with this colour

I knew the BRZ would look fantastic once the stilts were kicked out and nice wheels were properly fitted.

Perfect size I'd say. I like the wheels too, reminds me of a Porsche.

Did you weigh the difference in wheel+tire combo or just the wheels?

They look fantastic! Will definitely be the wheel of choice for me. Now if only BBS would release their forged WashiBeam wheels in this design for this car. Ok, those are ridiculously expensive but, the looks plus weight savings. i can dream.
