Jessie's 2013 Scion FR-S On 18" EC-7R Forged Wheels

Jessie stopped by the shop with his well sorted Scion FR-S to check out our new fully forged wheels specifically engineered for the 86/BRZ community. Jessie was very familiar with APEX from his 86 Drive Challenge days. It didn’t take more than a few seconds for him to notice the concavity of the new wheels and the new finishes. We mounted a set of our 18×9.5” ET40 EC-7R wheels in satin gold wrapped in PS4S 265’s. The flush fitment looked great and there was plenty of clearance for his massive front Brembo GT BBK. One of the first comments Jessie made exiting his car when we arrived at the photoshoot location was that he instantly felt the weight savings on the new setup.
