Actually no, I like the FR-S name, more than the Toyota 86, since to me a veteran AE86 builder/driver, 86 only means one car, the AE86 Corolla Levin /Sprinter Trueno, and USA Corolla GTS of 1984-1987.

Love the set up. I want to ask you if there is any rubbing issues and what type of disk did you order for these wheels? I see that 18x8 and 18x9 with +37 offset is offered with disk of SL (Super Low) or NR (Normal).
Also - where did you purchase these wheels from.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

No rubbing issues, though as always, that depends on tire choice, set ride height, and choice of offsets.
Normal Disk.
Bought directly from SSR USA, the same firm in the USA as Tanabe USA, Torrance CA.

Thanks.. I want to copy your set up.. I was thinking of using my old Volk te37, but your ssr's are so nice, I may have to get a set of those or their other wheels. My Celica has 18 x 7.5 +30 all around. Running 225/40 18s
