The second pic: where is that "86" emblem located on the car? and is it like a knob or something?

And the rear end...is it a trunk or hatch?

"86" badge is on the front fenders.  Rear end it's a trunk w/ shocks. I just found out if you close the door w/ the window down it automatically goes up, even just a crack it will close all the way up. We'll be having a launch release party 05.14.12

Quick cheap wheel options with decent offset are pretty easy to get luckily, They share the same bolt pattern as the wrx (5x100). Been wondering how my extra set of rota torques will look on it, 17x9 +30..... might work.

they went with a 5x100 pattern? that's super fucking weak. even the newer suby's switched to 5x114.3.

You wouldn't dare... putting Rota's on an FRS!
It's like taking Halle Berry on a first date to Roberto's.

I know it's weak, but a 10mm 5x100 to 5x114 adapter spacer will work.
People use spacers anyways, right.
The only Subaru's to switch to 5x114 are the WRX and STI.

Oh, I almost forgot. 
Volk has specially made wheels just for the FRS. 
It's cool they are making special wheels just for the FRS, the only other car they did this for was the Skyline GT-R.

I was thinkin somethin a lil more classy..... maybe In & Out?  :P

But really I have no problem runnin Rotas if thats all I can afford. Never been a wheel whore personally and I havent had any problems with rotas and been runnin em on cars for the last decade. But If you want more 5x100 stuff most of the wheels from Work are available in 5x100 (gotta custom order for good offsets usually though). And I am sure there are going to be more "good" wheel options after the FRS has been out a while. Or you can just go for the Greddy 5x114 hub conversion that they are supposed to have available soon, I guess they dont like 5x100 either.
