This car looks fantastic! One of the cleaner FR-S out there. Good effort.

I got the 18x9.5 +38 Enkei wheels in gold. They fit great on the back with 255/35 tires. The front wheels though stick outside the wheel well about 1 inch. The car is not lowered, but I'm putting on Eibach Sportline springs today. I have 245/35 tires on the front.

I hope the wheels will tuck in with the car lowered. I will post pics when I get the car back. If they don't, I won't keep the 9.5s on the front. I will have to go with the 18x8 +45.

I got this wheel fitment based on this thread, and I'm hoping for the best with the new springs...

IF you have -2.5ish front camber those wheels will tuck nicely. Same for he rear. Notice the orange car has decent rear negative AND good front negative camber. Almost mandatory for a 9.5 in the front. Order some WL camber bushings NOW so when you install those springs you can get them to align it. This should ensure that your wheel project gives you minimal drama.

Next you will need some better dampers and more spring rate.

9.5 is a LOT of grip !
