The tire shop said they were one of the easiest wheels to balance - not sure what that means.

It means they aren't crap quality, gravity cast knock off wheels.

Fortune Auto 500's. Mostly stock alignment with some added front camber (-1.7ish).

6 clicks from full soft it rides marginally stiffer than stock and a bit crashier, but 10x improved precision in handling. The car feels like a scalpel now instead of (relatively) feeling loose like stock did.

I encourage everyone to add some camber to the front, even on stock suspension, it improves the turn in A LOT.

Note to self: RPF1's on a red '22 BRZ looks sick.

Congrats! The dark colors look great with those wheels. How does it look at night?

^^Not sure about night yet, but really pleased with the look of the 17” base wheels.
Just enough shine to brighten things up a bit.

Yep! I'm on 18x8 +35 with 225/40 rubber. Planning on coilovers in the spring. Your car looks great on them!

Woot! It’s a great size wheel for the car - good taste I’ll check the thread to see if you’ve posted already (otherwise, yo I want to see that pic if your car is a different color).

How low are you going to drop with the coils?

I have a few photos floating around, here. I really need to grab some better photos that aren't in my driveway or garage. Thinking a modest drop - an inch max - just to eat up the gap.

I'm hoping RCE comes out with springs similar to the yellows on the 1st gen.
