Here’s What Fits Your FRS / GR86 / BRZ || Fit Check

If you or someone you know has a Scion FRS, Toyota 86/GR86, or Subaru BRZ make sure they watch this video of Fit Check where we cover all fitment options for those vehicles.

In our Fit Check series we cover a range of fitment options in three categories, “No Hassle”, “Slight Flex”, and “All The Wheel”. We break it down in these categories so it is easy to identify what kind of functionally suits your needs. If you are just looking to use your car for casual street use and commuting, the No Hassle fitment may be something you are looking for. If you are looking to do some light mods but still only use your car for strictly street use but like to look more aggressive, Slight Flex might be a good fit. If you are a person who brings your car to the track or car shows, All The Wheel would be a great way to show off a bit while still being completely proper and functional for the car.

The FRS/GR86/BRZ platforms have a lot of different options that can work. The number one thing you should consider when fitting your car is whether or not you are looking to run a square or staggered set up. If you are unsure what that means check out our video breaking down squared vs. staggered set ups.

Yes there will be people who run wheel and tire specs that we don’t specify in this video but may need some sort of body modification to avoid rubbing or inbound clearance issues, but this video is to talk about the fitment options with no body or suspension modifications.

All of these cars come with a 5×100 bolt pattern and a hub size of 56.1mm. If you have a model that is equipped with the performance package or you have a BRZ ts, make sure you take proper brake clearance into consideration when shopping for wheels. Diameter range for these cars will be 16″-19″. Make sure you maintain your factory overall rolling diameter.

No Hassle Fitment

If you want to keep your OE tire size, We recommend wheels that fall within widths ranging from 7 inches to 8 inches with an offset of 40 to 45. This sweet spot allows for a clean, flush look without rubbing or modifications. Remember, a lower offset pushes the wheel further out, creating a more aggressive stance.

If you are looking to use your factory tires you are going to be looking at a 17-18″ wheel depending what model and trim you have. An 8″ wide wheel at a 40 offset squared would be our choice for no hassle fitment. This will fill out the wheel wells just a bit more and get rid of the sunken in OE look.

Suggested Fitment: 17″-18″x 8″ ET40 square (17×8 et40 shown Hypergram)

Slight Flex Fitment

Ready to push the boundaries and truly personalize your FRS/GR86/BRZ? Our “Slight Flex” category caters to enthusiasts who want that aggressive sweet spot. This is for people who are looking to change both their wheels and their tires.

There are two ways to achieve this slight flex fitment, you can go with a squared or staggered fitment. If you are looking to go with a square fitment we would recommend an 8.5″ wide wheel at an ET40 offset OR if you are looking to run a staggered setup you can run the same size in the front of the car but go a bit wider for the rear at a 9″ wide wheel at an ET40 offset as well.

Suggested Fitment:

Front: 17-19″x8.5 ET40

Rear: 17-19″x8.5 ET40 / 17-19″x9 ET40

ALL THE WHEEL Fitment

For the true stance enthusiast, we offer the “ALL THE WHEEL” fitment for the FRS/GR86/BRZ. This category is the most aggressive wheel you can fit on these cars without having to do some sort of suspension or body modifications.

We recommend a front sizing of a 8.5″-9″ wheel at an ET35-ET40 and not a range but two different options for rear wheel sizes of a 9.5″ at ET35 or a 10″ wheel at an ET-45-48 offset. This is going to be the most aggressive set up you can run on these cars. Yes you will see some people who run sizes that fall outside of these recommended specs but it is much more likely that they have to deal with rubbing issues or improper tire specs.

Be aware: Due to the aggressive nature of this fitment, modifications like camber adjustment or fender rolling will likely be necessary to avoid rubbing. Konig strongly recommends consulting a professional installer to determine the modifications needed for your specific setup.

Suggested Fitment:

Front: 17-19″x8.5 ET35

Rear: 17-19″x9.5 ET35

Final Wrap Up

We like to reiterate that if you have a model that is equipped with a performance package with factory big brakes or a BRZ ts you must take brake clearance into consideration when shopping for wheels.

Remember to visit our website or consult an authorized Konig dealer to explore the vast selection of wheels available. With Konig, transforming your FRS/GR86/BRZ from stock to show-stopping is just a few clicks or a conversation away!
