Nice setup!

Still at stock height but we went with the TS-5s from Titan-7, also in Techna Bronze. (19")

Are these different offset from stock to get that flush fit or is it just the angle?

The factory offset is different... a whopping 60mm. In this case, less is more. They are 15mm out further than stock.

Yeah this look is much better than stock. I'm a little worried about additional road debris getting kicked onto the paint but just a typical sacrifice for aesthetics.

Do you anticipate any issues with rubbing or clearances when lowered? I like the idea of a 3/4 in or so drop eventually, will any mods need to be done to accommodate the additional wheel poke?

BTW I don't want to hijack this thread, the bronze wheels look great everyone.

I will include a few other photos below. They wheels are about 6lbs lighter than factory each and the Titan-7 lugnuts I am using are 1.5lbs lighter than the factory set (total). I can't say that I have driven the car hard enough since installing them to feel anything but I think it is fair to assume that there are notable benefits there with such a large loss of unsprung weight.

Shameless plug: We are a Titan-7 stocking dealer. This is one of many examples of how we truly believe in and use the parts we sell.

Fitted on OEM tire or did you go a different size?

I ended up sticking with the OEM size. I was interested in a wider tire but couldn't find anything in stock locally that worked for me.

Anyone with a SGP with bronze? Been thinking about going bronze for mine but not sure if the colors would mesh.

I saw a reddit post of a SGP FK8 on bronze wheels (Enkei Triumphs) and they looked amazing. May have to follow suit once I am a bit more liquid.
