GR86 GR86 - What wheels and tyres are you thinking about?

[ninjin]

Hi
Who did you order from ?

Thanks Chris

I got my friend in Tokyo to sort it out.

BBS RS803 are finally on.

Pretty much at my comfortable limit for flush fitment at 18x8 ET33 with an unmodified suspension and camber setup.

I will be looking at getting Tein High Tech lowering springs, and front camber bolts to achieve a more aesthetically pleasing look.

Worth noting that the wheels require ball/radius style nuts, and I finally found one manufacturer that does them in the correct M12x1.25 sizing, as it's an unusual fitment. Bimmec D31R.

Stock size TE37 in bronze would be my ideal choice... they are monstrously expensive though.

stock wheels in Audi Bronze. Shows how different they can look in a workshop vs on the car

They actually look good in black - a few on here have had them done. Hidden behind the silver-chrome wheels, mine are a nice shade of matching light blue.

I wanted to do my rears in black but ran out of comfortable weather

I job for spring time.

Still enjoying my BBS RS803 wheels, although soon they will be paired with a set of Tein S-Tech lowering springs and front camber bolts.

Seriously thinking about it also. Couldn’t see pricing anywhere so I’ve sent an enquiry to nearest OZ stockist.

EDIT 18/01/24 :

Oz have no date and price on that wheel yet

An Update.

“Moring Alistair,
I have had a reply from OZ, unfortunately these wheels cannot be supplied to UK dealers so unfortunately if it is this specific wheel you are wanting you may have to buy from Europe. So sorry I couldn’t help”

That's really odd, why wouldn't they sell it in the UK? Aside the GR86, the GR Yaris has sold more in the UK than anywhere else in Europe.

 

[Sonic]

Can anybody give me an idea of what these wheels are, or point me towards something similar available (to the UK) for the GR86 please?

I thought they might have been BC forged wheels from the centre cap but I recognise the car. They are Japan Racing JR39.
