Both cars are lowered. The blue one is on coil overs, the white one might only be springs, but there are few threads around with 18s on the car, there is still a decent amount of gap in the well.

Am I the only one here that wants to run 18x9.5 with 255/35's non-staggered? They will totally fit and look great, not to mention provide a stupid amount of grip of you go with a Neova, RS-3 or Star-Spec.

a 255 ultra high performance tire on the rear of a car with around 150 ft/lb of torque? eh...

jedichimp · 06-19-2012, 08:47 PM

Uh...you mean Toyota?

S2000 guys do it all the time.

civicdrivr · 06-20-2012, 03:28 PM

255 may be overkill. Im running 225/40-18 Star Specs and the grip is fantastic and its plenty of fun in the corners. Once we start building high powered cars, Ill revisit the tire width, though.

Jdogg180 · 06-20-2012, 06:38 PM

I'm just saying. The S2000 chassis is very similar in weight and power. A bunch more top end but less torque and almost everyone who tracks and is competetive with them is running 255's. Don't see why the FRS/BRZ would be any different.

Got any pictures of the Matte Black on White? I'm really digging these wheels.

Those rears look sik! I'd rather a square 9.5" setup. On an FR-S of course...

I want to know if these are even track worthy, or purely aesthetic.
