I had my winter rims and new tires for my 2005 STi mounted today, and thought I'd see what they look like on the BRZ. What do you think? Tires are 225/45/17 and are fully studded.

They are 17/8 +48 and will clear 99% of the big brake kits out there! Thinking in advance. And thanks!

Can you confirm if they fit stock tires? Also, what colours are available?

Thanks a lot!

They will fit stock 215 tires perfectly and I have matte black, chrome black and gold. The the additional 1" width on these wheels over stock will allow you to run a wider 225 and likely 235 even down the road when your stock tires are worn.

Parry Sound district and lots of northern Ontario is legal. The BRZ is parked for the winter and those wheels and studded tires are on my STi for the winter. I just wanted to put them on the BRZ for some picturs for you guys.
