RS-Watanabe F8 17x8 +35 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Shark_Bait88 · 12-04-2016, 11:48 AM

Even after waiting over 4 months for these things to arrive, and driving with them for only one season, I've decided to sell my Watanabes.

Wheels are in great shape for the most part. Two have some minor curb rash (see pictures) that can easily be repaired.

They come with the RS-Watanabe lug and lock nuts, RS-Watanabe valve stems and 225/45 ZII Star Specs.

As you can see from the pictures, two tires are at about 3-3.5/32nds (30-35%) and two are at ~5/32nds (50-55%). One tire has some damage from a small piece of metal it picked up. The tire was NOT punctured, so no patch. I wouldn't trust that tire to the heat of a track day, but it will be fine for daily driving and even autox. I did 3 tracks days, around 20 autox runs, and ~12,000 daily driven miles on the tires, and they're fantastic.

Would prefer local sale, but willing to meet midway between surrounding states. Might consider shipping, PM me if you're interested in shipping. Still have original boxes for the wheels as well.

Asking $2,400 OBO, or $2,200 OBO w/o tires.
