BRZ Blue.Series STI Wheels

I just saw these became available in the US on the new BRZ blue.series.

Is it possible to order just the wheels from a US dealer?

I searched and couldn't find anything.

Yes, you can order a set from any Subaru dealers if I'm not mistaken.

I believe you can only buy them in 17x7.5 spec and they are made by Enkei as a cast wheels.

Before they were available from Subaru dealers, japanparts.com has been selling 17x7.5 and 18x7.5 wheels but they come with hefty tax+shipping cost to your door.

For the price (17" set goes for $1500+ last time I checked), I would not recommend it as its width is too narrow for my taste and doesn't do that much of a good job filling in the gap in the wheel well.

But anyways, that's my preference and you might want the wheels.

Check your local Subaru dealer, they should have a set.

Thanks for the info.

The size is perfect for what I am looking for. I'll have to give them a call and see what they want. I might end up buying a set from someone on here if they are $1500 + tax at the dealer.

Look around. Thats a hefty price for these wheels unless you are looking for "must have OEM Wheels"

I was looking for the style specifically. Only other ones I found like these are the ASGA Spirit Wheels which are $990. I feel like these wheels would be better for another 200 or so more.

I've been going through a similar dilemma. I don't think the ASGA wheels are being produced right now even though they are on the site. They only had a set of gold and gun metal left a few months ago they were trying to get rid of. Also, there was a group buy on this forum that was trying to get 10 people together, and they would produce 10 more in black in that case, but that seems to have lost traction.

The ASGA Spirits are 18x8 +40
The USDM series blue wheels are 17x7
The Sti wheels from overseas come in 17x7.5 and 18x7.5

I've been thinking about getting the 720 form GTF3's as they are 18x8 +42 or 17x7.5 +42 and very similar in style. It also appears they will be lighter and stronger for less money than any of the alternatives. The only reason I haven't pulled the trigger is i can't find any pics of these actually on a car. I may have to be the first.
