Subaru Crosstrek rims on an 86?
So I've exhausted reasonable means to find rims for my 86 for the winter without breaking the bank. I bought stock size snow tires two seasons ago and ran them on my stock rims.
I cannot for the life of me, find a reasonably priced stock BRZ/86 wheels anywhere near me. New steel wheels are $110/wheel, and those are the cheapest I can find, with no sensors. I found by happenstance that 2013-2016 Subaru Crosstreks have the same stock wheel size. I can find oodles of these for a decent price, and they have tpms already in them, which I assume is the same sensor the the BRZ/86 because they share so much in common. My question is this: what is this 2.2 and 2.4 number value (underneath everything else) and what does it mean if I put it on the 86? They will look weird for sure, but I'm going for function first. Thoughts? |

The 2.2 and 2.4 values refer to the recommended cold tire pressure measured in bar, so nothing that would stop you from being able to put the Crosstrek wheels on the 86.
2.2 bar is 32 psi. 2.4 bar is 35 psi. |
