GTR R32 Wheels on the ZN6

Has anyone stuck some R32 (16x8 +30) wheels on the FRS/BRZ?

I've got a set on my old FC that I've been contemplating using. I realize that I'd have to use a conversion spacer (probably Project Kics 10mm), but I think it has the potential to look really good...

Thoughts?

Drifter, those are GT-S wheels. The GT-R wheels are 16x8.

Not such a good pic, but pulled this from online.

not worth using the gain of rotating mass using 5x114.3 to 5x100 adapters imho

They are great wheels. I looked for a couple years for a nice clean set for my S13 but everything I found was either too beat up or way too expensive. I went with some WedsSport TC005s instead.

I want to say, 'go for it' but I don't like the fact that you have to use spacer adapters to fit them.
