Not when you buy from us

That's crazy money for tires though, shipping is also not cheap to get those wheels to Hawaii too. Car looks GREAT though, if we had this car these are definitely the rims that would be on it.

Looks nice!

How do you find the T1Rs? Are they noisy?

Do you wish you had gone lower offset in the front?

The rears look about right,


can you post some pics of the front vs the fender and the rear vs the fender now that its lowered a little bit.

it depends on the roads I notice when driving on concrete they are noticably louder than stock but on a nicely paved asphalt road they are very quite

I guess it depends on the look you are going for. I actually like the rims sitting flush with no poke so I think the fronts are perfect.

I'll try to post a few more pics when I have a chance

Can you post some pics of how much the back tire is still poking out with the drop? I'm still trying to figure out the rim width I want to get since I may be ordering some custom rims haha.

Looking very nice!!!!

We noticed that the FR-S has a very roomy wheel well.
Should be able to go with a more aggressive setup with ease.
However black + bronze = classic setup!


CR-Kiwami (ultimates) aren't the lightest of wheels, but they look great!
Here is an example of the 18x10.5's...

Thanks for the heads up I know there were cheaper options but I really like the Toyo's I've had them on my IS350 and they road very well.
