Just want you to be happy with your car and not go through the pains and $ these guys already have. The 19" wheels look nice in person but weigh so much it's not worth it. Plus the ride isn't very good since the tires are so thin. Come to some local events and ask and the guys will tell you what's been good and what to avoid as there are lots of options for our cars even after a year.

As for springs, RCE Yellows offer the best function > form and Eibach sportlines and H&R super sport offer the best looks. Eibach Pro-Kit and H&R sport are in the middle. Just depends on if you'll be doing any type of racing or only daily driving/going for looks. Always get an alignment afterwards whenever you change springs.

Thanks for the feedback, Very helpful!!

After extensive research and many calls I decided to go with the 5 Axes kit after all, I do understand all the issues that people have had all over the country with the kit, However it appears they have fixed most if not all the issues associated with the kit at this point. In fact you can now purchase a reinstall kit for it in the event it was installed incorrectly, from my understanding many of the dealers that installed the kit did not install it correctly. I have talked with the folks at 5 axes and my dealer extensively. So if mine falls off then indeed the kit is crap!

Being installed now, pics soon……..I am having it color matched silver ignition as well as all of the black covers in the back of the car and the fog light bezels will be color matched to the car, I am going with 18s have yet to decide on wheels for this car, I am thinking the wheels should have some blue in them….Opinions?

Thanks again for all the feed back.

Mike

Smile New Owner

Hey guys, I'm Ron and I'm a new owner of a Dark Grey 13 BRZ Limited 6MT purchased on 8/13. I currently live in Edmonds but I work in Everett.

Loving the car! I won't forget the the first time I took it on the highway on the day I bought it. Some guy in the carpool lane started honking at me and I tried to ignore it at first but he kept honking. When I turned to looked, it turns out to be a guy in a Subaru Outback who was giving me a thumbs up with a huge grin on his face! . Right then I knew I made the right purchase!

New in April

We bought a 2013 BRZ Limited on April 8th and it arrived in Spokane on April 10th and we picked it up on April 11th. It's in the wife's name so that's Theresa Albertson. It's in a garage on the North side. We bought the WR Pearl Blue with the 6/Auto. We love this car. Rick
