I have no idea why that is stamped on the wheel, as they are actually 5x100. But boy, was I pissed when I saw that and thought Tire Rack sent me the wrong wheels. Ended up test fitting one and its fine. I'm at least glad I figured out that are in fact correct before giving an earful to some poor CS Rep at tire rack.

You own an FRS right?

Are they a single bolt pattern, or the type that has 2 or 3 different bolt patterns on them

3 different bolt patterns? How do they do that?

You might want to mention that to TireRack so they can figure that out. It's definitely a wrong stamping.

Alternating holes.

I prefer my wheels with bad translation:

Well I know that is how they do 2 different ones, but is 3 even possible?

Yeah, getting ready for the Auto-x season to start.

What size did you end up going with? Sadly, my wheels won't be ready until 2 months into autocross season. So I will be in STX with stock wheels and tires lolololololol

There is a second set of holes, but they don't look large enough to get studs through.

17x7 with 225 bfg rivals. I have a few things left to get installed, and then I should be fully C Street prepped minus a drop in filter.

Stock wheels meh, but stock tires will kinda suck. Ran stock tires all last year so it'll be interesting to see the difference.

It is not fun. . . well it is fun coming across the line sideways, but it was slow.

I am getting Rota Titans in 17x9 with MPSS for tires(hopefully). Should be great on the road and track! Are you doing any camber adjustment?

No, I guess that was the other part I don't have, the crash bolts. I'm thinking of moving into STX in a couple of years. One of the major things stopping me is this is the only car I have space for and if I lose any ride I'm not making it out of the parking lot of my apartment building, nor into the one at work =/

Plus I'd get crushed in STX as we have some very good drivers in it. Will be interested to see who shows up in C Street this year. End of the month can't come soon enough.

I am not really looking to be competitive just looking for some fun driving! It will mostly be me and my friend versing each other, we both are going to have STX prepped FRSs!

Nice! One of my friends is going to have a similarly preped BRZ and I expect a few other over the course of the season.

Expect some competition. In chicago there were tons of FRSs and BRZs, not so much in Indy. One of them had slicks on stock wheels and was running times close to the 53 second, with a Porsche 911 GT3 doing 51s, and the BRZ was all stock!!

Hmm, that's awful weird, but if they fit what you need them for, that's all that matters I guess!
