Our customer Pasi (@mytoy86) has been racing in the TRD CUP and 86 CUP series for the last few years. He recently upgraded to this new 2019 Toyota 86 TRD Special Edition that features a factory Brembo brake kit. He runs a rotatable square setup of 17″ ARC-8 track wheels that weigh only 17.8 lbs and provide a direct fit for the FT86 and BRZ chassis. Pasi chose APEX wheels for their great value, massive brake clearance and hub centric direct fit. Watch our video to see this track car in action at Streets of Willow for the 86 CUP event.

Matt became the JDM Product Expert at APEX Wheels in 2022. Prior to joining APEX, he worked extensively in automotive sales. As an enthusiast he made the shift from street driving to track driving in order to fully experience his cars at the limit without putting the public at risk. Matt has owned six Hondas (‘94 Integra LS, ‘95 Integra RS, ‘96 Integra GS-R, ‘06 RSX Type-S, ‘95 Civic VX, ‘17 Civic EX-T), two Subarus (‘15 Impreza, ‘22 BRZ), and is likely shopping for the next addition to his stable. When he’s not helping JDM owners figure out the best wheel setups for their cars, he enjoys playing racing video games and indulging his interest in automotive photography. Fun fact: Matt knows every quotable line in The Fast and the Furious by heart.
