Vivid racing blew me off, and i need some rims with a deep lip

I was looking at SSR professors. all black with gunmetal, or titan gray spokes to match my DGM BRZ. any idea when i can get some rims with a good size lip and in the stye i am looking for?

disclaimer: i asked vivid for a quote over a month ago and every 3 days i get a close ticket warning. I am just looking for some "stance" 3 piece rims....

I've been thinking of doing a set of Rota D, 18x8.5 +44 front, 18x9.5 +40 rear. The rear would have a 2.75" lip.

This is a car with the 18x8.5 all around...



This is the 9.5":

Who did you PM at VividRacing? Your best bet would be to call them if you are serious about getting a quote and actually speak with someone in the shop. It sucks that you were overlooked but to say you were blown off because you waited a month for a response from a shop and you didnt think to call the shop and talk to a salesperson (Josh and Sean have been incredibly patient with me) is a little harsh.

Vivid is a business that caters to more than just FR-S/BRZ owners and I am sure that they have a ton of forums that they need to monitor and sometimes things slip.

Vivid Racing's phone number is 1-866-448-4843, I'd say ask for Josh or Sean as I dont know if Mike is back.

I'm sorry if I sound like a VR cheerleader but those guys have bent over backwards to help me (of course I can actually just show up to their shop) so i am a little partial towards them.

What about Work Meister S1R?

Have you tried RavSpec? They seem to have decent feedback on ebay.

Calling them definitely seems like the best way to go. I've dealt with John @ Vivid and he's been extremely responsive.

Hey guys, this is John, I am the FT86 rep here at Vivid. I know we had some juggling during Mike's departure, so I apologize PROFUSELY if anyone got overlooked. I would be more than happy to help ANY of you in any way I can. Our prices are always competitive, and we always price match where we can as well. I will PM the op as well, but wanted to let everyone else to know I am always here to help!

It looks like there is a ticket in the system one of our reps was dealing with that our rep was not getting responses to for extended periods. It seems it may have been a SPAM or technical issue, but in any case we are always here for our customers. Either way we will get this taken care of for everyone.

Thanks guys, Contact info is in my Signature as well.
