Dime-a-dozen wheel photo! - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

225/40-18 Goodyear Eagle Exhilarates and 18x8 +45 Black Enkei Raijins. Took me over 6 years to buy new wheels(Not due to finances, just not able to justify it to myself). Lets see how long it takes for me to break down and buy coilovers to fill that unsightly gap.

Looks good! I have those same tires (in 17"), and adore them.

Looks awesome, I love the Raijins! Probably my favorite Enkei wheel ( I'm not an RPF1 guy). Don't feel like you HAVE to buy coilovers. That extra adjustability does have plenty of cons to come with it. You can lower it an inch, increase the sidewall height of the tire a little bit, and it'll look amazing.

Also, shout-out to the best color.

I think taking time on mods is more rewarding over all since you get to soak in every new modification and see/feel how it changes your ride. Tons of guys throw everything at the car at once, Turbo/SC/outrageous body kits... and these guys are the first to get bored and move onto something else.

Rushing with the mods can definitely do that to you. Better to just take it in one at a time, in order to appreciate the mods part by part.

I don't hate the gap - and I'm one of those weirdos that likes the tires fully inside the wheel wells so when you go through a little mud, it doesn't get slung everywhere.
