Glad to see you popped up over here.

As others have said over on ft86club - get regular lug nuts on those wheels. Tuner lugs are not meant to seat in factory wheels.



As far as tires go, I assume they are the stock FRS tires, so 215/45R-17 Michelin Primacy HP 87W. They clock in at about 19lbs each. Tire Rack seems to be down at the moment, so I am going off weight specs from somewhere else online.

I wounder how they would look all one color.. Maybe in the future if you get bored.. =D




I thought about getting a set cheap and turning them silver... I hate the two-tone design but the wheels themselves aren't terrible.

I think the FRS Wheels looks phenomenal when painted gunmetal. I don't like the look of them when matte though, be it black or any other color. Also Im fairly sure getting your hands on toyota center caps instead of the scion logo should not be difficult at all. Maybe $30-$60 for a gt86 set. Otherwise you could just buy a different center cap with the TRD logo etc.

Thank you for the reply I'm actually tossing around gold or bronze not sure right now they are just plastidipped.... As fr as the caps yes I plan on getting the Toyota ones butt there's problem the offset on the FRS wheels is so high my half shaft pokes through just enough for them to not fit I don't really want to run spacer but its either that or shave the half saft down about 2 to 3 mm which should allow enough room

You would really benefit in the looks department by putting a spacer on them.

17x7 +48... and I know the Celica can slip a 17x8 +35 in the front, which means you should have room for a 20mm spacer all around. A 15mm bolt on at the very least.. bring it out to +33.
