Does anyone else think Enkei makes the 2017 OEM Rims?
I know Enkei makes the STI rims. I think the new 2017 OEM rims might be a slight variation on the new Enkei ONX rims. It almost looks like they just added a bit of silver to the inner black spokes on the outside tips.

It wouldn't be much of a surprise if they did. Enkei makes a good portion of the wheels for performance Subarus, including the base model Toyota 86 16-inchers, Saab 9-2X wheels, and a lot of the WRX STI wheels.

Good on them for expanding their business like that. Plus, I've always had a soft spot in my heart for Enkei. They were the very first set of rims I've ever purchased way back for my 1992 Mitsubishi Eclipse 2.0 DOHC. They were a set of 16" 5 spokes that had the factory tires placed on them. The car was black and even had OEM vinyl graphics above the factory ground effects which came painted silver from the factory. Wow, the good old days. I have such fond memories of that car with such stiff suspension because the springs were cut on the factory struts and shocks to lower it and my no name eBay muffler that had to be welded on; grapefruit shooter that flared out at a tasteful angle, lol. I was so broke. But, I was able to put the biggest K&N filter on it that I've ever seen in my whole life. I even had a silver vinyl sticker outline of the diamond star emblem, another fantastic eBay find, that took up almost the entire back window. Man, I wish I had pictures of that car. I kept it so pristine and clean. It had the 4G63 engine which had a higher compression ratio since it was the naturally aspirated version of the turbo engine. I do miss my liftbacks.

I remember hearing that Enkei even made the 2013-2016 rims for the 86/BRZ
