Not certain what your statement means??

If you mean, the Subaru BRZ's are 5x100 then yes. I suppose that pretty much confirms that the FT is going to have the same bolt pattern.

If you mean, Subaru only makes cars with 5x100 pattern then you would be wrong.

Im talking about purchasing wheels used. Skip the wait time and you save a good bit of $$ for other stuff.

As I said earlier this wont bother me as my CE28s are both 5x100 and 5x114 but when I do decide to change my wheels up I kno its a gonna be a pain in the ass to shop for wheels.
Not to be rude or anything, but CE28N don't come in duel bolt patterns. Your set is either replicas or they are only 5x114.3. Real CE28N looks like it has two sets of holes, but the other holes are not used to mount on cars. They are there to make the wheels bolt on spacer friendly.


Anyways, it's going to suck if it's 5x100, like a lot of other people have said before, the good fitment wheel choices are limited. 5x100 wheels RARELY come in concave faces. Although i have seen some 17x9 +35 5x100 RPF1 on some Tc in forums, don't know if they are special group buy orders or they have that size available to purchase now. Nothing about that size on their website.

Agreed...though they made this thing with aftermarket in mind, Japanese companies are notorious for trying to control what you buy and may go with 5x100 to achieve just that. Then there's the majority of Subaru's with high offset setups with 5x100, the Celica also with 5x100, and the current Scions with 5x100 It's not looking good for 5x114.3

There are hub conversion spacers out there, to convert to 5x114.3 but it's usually only 20mm and up...which starts pushing the wheels to extreme offsets..
