Coupes and performance platforms are where rotational mass shows up fastest — in acceleration, in braking, and in how quickly the chassis changes direction. Forging lets us build to the same strength spec as the factory wheel at a meaningfully lower rotational weight, which is where the performance gain actually comes from, not just the visual one.
The BRZ tS runs a 5x100 bolt pattern, 56.1mm center bore, and a 18x7.5J at ET48, front and rear, wheel from the factory. Our Flush Fitment reference is 18x8.5J at ET35, which tucks the tire under the fender lip on a stock-height BRZ tS. Our Maximum Aggressive reference is 18x9.0J at ET30 — beyond that offset, expect rubbing against the inner fender liner under compression without further trimming.
