Good colour that, I’ve been 50/50 with the Grey and White Pearl. Went white in the end but still love the Grey
This looks epic with the silver alloys

I think System still have a few sets TE37SL in stock now but it won’t be cheapI may be wrong but I think SLs have been discontinued and replaced with Sagas - same mold but with engraved logos I’m fairly sure. If we get enough buyers we can get a container over!
I like the TC105X design but feel like GR86 offsets don't allow for enough concavity. VIP Motorsports in the UK can supply Enkei NT03s quickly and at a good price which is another option - last time I checked they were around £1500 which is a fantastic price for a good quality wheel, and they give a similarly raw motorsport look to the TC105X.I think System still have a few sets TE37SL in stock now but it won’t be cheap
I personally don’t like TE37 Saga or Saga SL which they don’t have “deep lip “ and looks really like those rep now.
TC105X is another option for me which is as light and the style really suit the new GR.

I also have a good contact for BC coilovers who can supply below list. Again if anyone else is interested I am happy to organise a group buy. They will come with adjustable front top mounts so you will be able to set negative camber up front - rears will ofc need adjustable RUCA.
On another note, with regards to residuals - a good case study is the S14 and S15 Nissan Silvias. The S14 was widely available and a decent car with a few flaws. The S15 was a comprehensive update - exact same chassis / floorpan, some additional bracing, some more power out of the same engine, and lots of tweaks that mimicked what the aftermarket offered for the S14. Beyond that, the S15 was deemed far more desirable in terms of aesthetics. They are fundamentally the same car but the S15 was an improved version of the S14 in every way, much like the GR86 is of the GT86, with all mechanical & chassis parts being interchangeable.
Globally, including in the UK and in Japan, S15 values have consistently been double that of the S14. Whether or not this applies to the GR86 - I have no idea. My crystal ball is as good as anyone elses - but I'm not sure that the GR86 being an update over a clean slate will go against it in terms of residuals.
Regardless, nobody in this thread has mentioned buying the GR86 as an investment. I'm selling an appreciating 'modern classic' to make space for it because I want to do more trackdays - I'm not expecting to make money on it personally, nor do I have any intention of ever selling unless a cheap V8 Vantage pops up in the right spec.
I'll be looking for a spare set to put track rubber on. Thinking 17s for reduced weight / cheaper tyres but if I decide to get a BBK down the line is that something I need to consider up front in terms of fitment?
Playing with colours in GT7 I think dark bronze rims will look great with Bright Blue
That is awesome!
This is a good site to play around on
Not 100% sure what the centerbore is on the GR86 wheels yet , I’ve not seen a number quoted anywhereAssuming old impreza wheels are a straight fit i’ll be searching for some 17” gold multispokes

As long as there’s no brake clearance issues, may even look into 16s for track and / or winter wheelsAnyone thinking of going to 17inch wheels if the ride on 18s feels stiff? Will wait to see how the GR86 rides but this may be an option for me
I think 16s will clear std brakesAs long as there’s no brake clearance issues, may even look into 16s for track and / or winter wheels
