Help with wheels - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Hello,

I am from Europe, so buying wheels here from US or Japan is very expensive. (250$(6UL/RPF1 17x9)+transport )+24%Taxes. About 330usd(260GBP)+transport. 19%VAT and 5%PostTax also applies to transport.

I am looking for some wheels made in Europe so that I can get a better price.

I would like 17x9/17x8.5 preferably under 18lbs/8.5kgs which would fit brembo&sachs performance package.

Thank you guys in advance!,
Andrei

OZ and Sparco are Italian, right? They make some wheels that would fit what you are looking for.

There's also Japan. There must be shops selling wheels made closer to home.

Check out protrack wheels. Used in motorsport, available in EU and comes with TÜV if you're after that
