Hmmm I didn't think of that. I haven't seen what the 16in wheels look like for the GT model though.
I count 10 spokes on the car on the front, so I assume it had the 10 spoke TRD TF6 cast wheel on it.

The pattern of the spokes joining the outer rims looks much the same:

Hahaha!! imho these look BETTER than the stock 17inch bob-jane-t-mart-look-a-like-stockies on the GTS/BRZ

I wonder what tyres they will put on them since they are 16's and not the 17's(Primacy HP 215/45/17's)

my friend at the port just texted me a pic.

it's a white 86 high spec with suede seats, frameless mirror and no rear spoiler.

i was asked not to post the pic as he doesn't want to get into trouble. it doesn't show anything significant we don't already know.

1 think i notice is there seem to be a front number plate holder, so those who was hoping for a clean look can

You can remove the holder, don't worry.
I cut up the one on the 8 so my front licence plate "floats" in front of the car

it seems to be a big piece that cover the coloured bumper and a bit of the front grill. it was a side pic so i can't see how it looks head on.

my friend said the car drives awesome. slick gear shift and nice sound. very jelly!!
