Yes, but when you buy the rear swaybar, the front comes with it. You can only buy them as a set. If you have a strano, then you can play around as you'll have 4 stock bars and the strano, _any_ combination of those will work on the car as you can change 1 end from stock.

Yeah like I said don't quote me on my speculation...

But if you're just looking to experiment isn't there a rear WRX bar or something that's fits the twins? If you could find something like that cheap enough it might be worth it just to see what more rear bar does for you. It wouldn't be "legal" but eh...you're just experimenting right?

Alternatively if you put up a WTB maybe you can find one end of the TRD set used and fill in the other end with an adjustable aftermarket bar so you end up with increased roll stiffness overall and the ability to tune rotational characteristics.

What about the wheels? C Street legal?

Probably needs a clarification from the SEB. Write a letter

My letter#17201

If you were ordering a 2016 FRS and wanted to be competitive,
what TRD options would you or can you get and be legal?

TRD Lowering Spring
TRD Sway Bar Kit (and you can still replace one of those with an aftermarket sway bar)
TRD Exhaust

I'm pretty sure that's it, but someone correct me if I missed something. I'm not entirely aware of all the TRD options available, but those are the ones that will have an impact on performance and still be legal for CS.

Oh, I know there are better options. I have a Berk single exit, 22.5lb drop . I was answering his question with ALL the legal TRD options.

The SEB can't clarify legality if you don't provide that evidence.

Until evidence of that is found, the TRD wheels are technically illegal, even if you could get away with it at a local event.

I would think that the Toyota website saying that it is a port installed price means it is port installed...

just messing around.. but if the trd wheels are 18x7 +35 front and 18X7.5 +35 rear


how would this play into street's +/1 diameter and +/- 1/4 offset allowance.

does this mean one could go to a 17x7.5 +29 all around?

[SVLTE]

Offset allowance is +/- 7mm as of this year

[Euphues]

I would love clarrification on this wheel issue. I love the way they look and want to order them but I need to stay in CS until I'm ready to move up.

No. Your fronts would be restricted to 7" width and your rears would be 7.5".

the RE71r comes in a 225/35/19 size.. I wonder how those would feel on a 19x7 rim

And you would also have offset that could go as wide as 28mm (or you can use the 42mm RPF1s on the front and the 7.5in wide 17s on the back (or i guess you could run the 18x7.5s on back). Would be LOTS of combo choices...
