Euro 86 models fitted with FT-86 MKII rims!?

Im sure this has been mentioned though im surprised i would have missed it and if so i will be quick to delete thread but WTF is going on with the Euro edition 86 having these killer rims that were fitted to the MKII!!!???

We have been shafted HARD on this one........

I was flicking through Wheels magazine Australia and seen this.... At the bottom it said overseas model shown.... Also i thought Euro model got BRZ wing?


MKII

I wonder if the Japanese market have these as an opition.... I cant believe they didnt just put these on the FRS, Aus GTS86 or even the BRZ....

I would have happily paid more to upgrade to these and fitted some spacers... Whats the bet the 2014-15 model is fitted with these....

Those are some sick wheels. I would have considered those. A bit darker or gunmetal like the TSW Nurb bronze on whiteout would be sick.

The more i search the more it seems this is just a one off... I cant find in any other colour....

Still, these could have atleast been an option!!!!!......

You don't know the meaning of "shafted hard" on this car. Seriously, check the thread in my sig. North America got shafted hard with the Scion version. Consider yourself lucky, being from Australia.
