So let me jump right into it. I went to the OC Festival of Speed this last weekend and had the opportunity to talk to BBS about the FI-R wheels. I was previously unfamiliar with these, probably because they are currently exclusive to Lamborghini, Audi, BMW, and Porsche. The development of these wheels is fascinating in itself and I'd recommend researching it. Here's some images of this gorgeous set:
After speaking with BBS about fitments, they are willing to fit these to our cars with 10 orders so I am trying to gauge interest as I would love to grab a set of these. These wheels lose no structural rigidity in their design over the track-proven FI wheels despite the weight savings. To provide an idea of what the weight would be, a 19x11.5 in Porsche fitment is 19.85 lbs. I'll start a list below of interested members. I've committed to this so we will need just nine more interested buyers. The price is $2050 per wheel, but is well worth it after having seen and interacted with them in person.

This is not meant to be an advertisement for BBS whatsoever, but just the potential to fit our cars with a proven forged wheel. I also posted this over on 6g, but I think more of the audience that would be interested in this wheel would reside here. I'm happy to forward any questions to BBS and provide answers here. Additionally, it may be possible to go to BBS with our desired fitment in case a square setup is more desired. The initial specs I provided were R-spec.
