Opinions please. Own a Firestorm FRS. Like these Enkei Performance Lusso in
18s. This red RX is a good reference pic.

Thanks.

After researching for about a month, for rims, for a car I have yet to purchase, or even seen in real life. It's hard to find a set of rims that DON'T look bad on a FRS/BRZ, unless you're actually trying.

Wait... do you mean that most all wheels look good on the twins, or that most all wheels look bad on them? Because the way you phrased that, it sounds like you think all aftermarket wheels look bad on this car.

SO, I've ordered a set of red Gorilla anodized aluminum lug nuts. If that doesn't work, it's an easy fix!

Great wheels, also known as Atech Finalspeeds in Japan. I had some on a Turbo Starlet.

They look real nice.

Man, I looked at so many wheels online and did so much "Photo-Shopping" I was getting double vision!

I was very close to choosing a different wheel but ran across these just before I pulled the trigger. It was tough since I had only seen pictures online so I was a little nervous. BUT, I got lucky and they turned out to look nice on the car. The only issue I have is that I put all new sensors in the wheels so the light has come on a couple of times. It didn't do it the first few days. Kinda weird. No one has the software yet for this car so I'm going to have to deal with it for a while!

Great choice though. These wheels are popular in Japan, all you need is those JDM center caps and your set:

Does anyone know how much the factory wheels weigh? They seem fairly light. I just want to know how much weight I've gained or lost!

Ugh this looks so good I'm rethinking my choice of sticking with 17s. How much did the new wheel/tire combo weight?

I want the Avant Garde F110 Series one of the vendors posted in the forums
