Well they do weigh a lot - around 23lbs or so each. So they actually somewhat decrease performance (of course, depending on tire seleced) compared to the OEM setup.

So far so good. The quality seems first rate.

They aren't forged, however. The JDM spec TRD wheel (latest version) is, but it's 3.5 x the price.

I can confirm that I tried the same setup with both 18x7.5 and 18x7, fronts do not clear with these wheels. I have a 2014 FR-S and used the brembos from the 2019 TRD edition 86.
