Finally not stock :) - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Finally put my suspension, wheels, and tires on over the weekend! What a difference!

First installed are the Stoptech slotted rotors and pads with SS lines; topped off with ATE 706202 Original TYP 200 DOT 4 Brake Fluid. Absolutely love how they feel now, with the Radium Engineering MC brace

Then I added the SCALE Suspension, I was a bit weary at first as they're fairly uncommon, but the quality is outstanding, installation was cake.

For wheels, I went with WedsSports SA-72R 18x9.5 +45 wrapped in Toyo Proxes R888 255/35/18

Installed all together, I think it looks pretty great!

Great looking wheels and great choice in tires. The car must feel like it is glued to the road.

Pete156 · 04-04-2016, 10:31 PM

Very nice indeed, as I expected! Coming to the meet Sunday so I can check it out in person?

Looks sharp

It's phenomenal, although the tires sound a bit airplane-ish on the highway

The 86 Sessions one? Possibly! I need to check my schedule, I haven't been to one since last summer

Lookin fly! Nice wheels and awesome tire choice. You'll get used to the tire noise, I actually really like the sound on mine

MisterSheep · 04-05-2016, 02:01 PM

LOOKING GOOD!

The R888 won't last very long 20k miles maybe, but they are very sticky and a great race compound street tire. I prefer RE-11A for the street as they are super sticky as well but not a race compound. Congrats on the mods.
