The real thing (coughSSRTypeFcough) comes in 17s, but sadly not in any aggressive specs.

LOL. Glad the wheel patrol is alive and well in this forum. Its always easier to generalize or reference similar designs.. However, the reality is that the market place today has products that looks so close to each other. Take the professor and the meister... similarly close yet different through the details. And really that is how wheel design has developed today, slight variances that would make people easy to generalize... SSR professors(coughworkmeister3pccough?)

Very special thank you to everyone who have expressed the interest to participate. We have gotten questions on why 16 owners only and if what we offer was the best we could do. To answer some questions, here is the break down. The bronze champions are limited edition, meaning that these are not yet offered through any sales outlets. This special edition is to highlight Dai's transition to 86 platform and available only for nissan s chassis and 86 platforms only... The d-12c 18x9 is a special spec edition intended for 86 owners... Therefore we are limiting to 16 owners total to participate in partial sponsorship program. The number of participants will be similar to the top 16 drift competition in Formula D. These 16 participants are our ambassadors of the brand, what we are, which is a brand created to be stylish, purposeful, and yet attainable by the regular individual who simply loves the connection with their car.

18x8 +30 and 18x9 +35 is a good fit or you can run 9's all around, the chrome lips look great with the chrome Toyota emblems too. I can't wait to see the Bronze on a Raven or WRB.

Will there be any way of getting the bronze champions other than through sponsorship? My car is stock so I don't see me getting chosen for this. Lol
