720Form GTF2 18x9 +35
Well after a few days of rain I finally installed my new wheels! I am happy to say 720form is a Canadian brand - quebec actually which is almost canada
Anyway, I sold my old Miro 111's because I didn't like the look on my car and was looking for something lighter in weight, so RPF1 was the sure choice right? Wrong, I stumbled across a thread on this forum introducing these, saw the weight and my mind was made up! Currently these wheels are hard to find for you guys south of the border, but I can tell you that the MSRP on these is about the same as RPF1's on sale or in a group buy so you do save a few dollars by going with these! http://www.720form.com SPECS/FEATURES: First of all these wheels are 18x9 with +35 offset, imo this is the perfect fitment for the BRZ with a little poke on the front and pretty much flush rear fitment. The weight for this wheel/size is 18.5 lbs which puts it pretty much on par with the 18x9.5 RPF1's in weight. Another aspect that caught my eye was the textured feeling inside the lip of the rim, it seems to be textured to increase friction coif with the bead of the tire, preventing the tire from slipping on the wheel under heavy torque load - i doubt this is a problem on the brz platform but its still a thoughtful feature that I've only seen in my friend's advan wheels. The GTF2 series wheels, and in fact all 720form wheels are made through flow form which makes them light and strong, perfect for the track! Anyway, pictures is what you all came for so here you go [IMG][/IMG] Also I should note that my car is on stock suspension at the moment and the tires are Bridgestone RE760 245/40/R18 |

Considering on replacing my XXR 527's with these. I like them, a lot. Planning to paint the white trim once I pull the trigger.

There is an entire thread on these wheels, but since this one in particular is the breakout from the whole wheel line to focus on a specific model and size I will post some pics here. Suppose it'll be easier for if/when Darren gets it added.
18x9 +35 GTF-2 wheels. 255/35-18 Nitto 555 tires.
