Well when I bought the wheels from Aspec it said they fit the frs and brz. I have been basing my fitment from this guys build. So I know the wheels will fit just fine with 1 inch drop.

The same guy has another thread here.

http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14232

I'm just hoping everything clears with the stock suspension left alone as I don't want to worry about suspension for another couple months as funds are always a little tight around the holidays. I will either do eibach pro springs in the next couple months or wait a little longer and get some decent coil overs. Not sure which one though as I can't lower more than an inch here in California without scraping all over the place. It damn sure looks good though.

Do you know what offset the wheels are on the blue brz? Are those volks?

I got the same exact wheels as nofear99. +45 offset. He runs 235/35/18 but those are a really difficult size to find and I'm not buying pirellis. Worst tires that anyone in the family has ever owned.

My question is whether the 245/35/18 would fit. It can't be too much more than 1/8th added to either side of the tire. Can't seeing that being too big of a problem. But then again. I won't be lowering for a couple months. If I need to get springs right away I will. I can't afford coils right away though. And buying springs will just prolong me getting coils, if I even decide to go that route.

The Bronze ones are Rota Grids.

Do you know what offset?

I threw on a wheel and everything checks out. Ordered some tires from Americas tire. They said if it's the wrong size I can exchange no problem. So I went with bridgestone re760 245/35/18 and now we wait. They should be ready to put on, Tuesday. I'll check fitment and go from there.

Any update on this? Did it fit? No rubbing issues?
