Guess this really depends on your objective. What are you trying to do? What are your goals? Performance, Stance, economy, AutoX, HDPE, just looks....

Wheels and tires setup for 1000$

I want wheel like OEM, i mean solid like OEM but with a better look... For sure I don't want Volk, unfortunately, I love it, but they are out of my budget.

It's a daly drive then nothing special...only some track days during summer.

Maybe I need the best bang for the buck.

Sorry, but OEM quality wheels and tires for under a grand probably isn't happening. Even the knockoff sets go for around $7-800 new, and the type of tires you could buy with the leftover money would either be heavily used or dangerously cheap. I would just take your time and either buy individually, or save up if you have a particular fitment you have in mind and do it right all at once.

Buy a set of Rotas and then go and get some cheap tires. I would say bump your budget up a bit and you can definitely get some really good tires!

Yes I can put more on the tires as well.

But I don't think rota will be solid like OEM.

This TRD dealer has the TRD wheels for the FR-S listed at $225 a piece. You'd be getting OEM quality for about a grand but it doesn't include tires. Maybe buy wheels now and save up for tires?

Disclaimer-I am not affiliated with this dealer, just saw someone else post a link to them on another thread. I also put it in the budget wheels thread.

I will need to look if they are available in Québec, Canada.

OEM. Good tires will cost over half that budget.
