Toyota GR86
Customer-specification fitment guide for the Toyota GR86. 5x100, 56.1 / 65, hub-centric — referenced against recorded LFI customer builds and specified from the car outward.
LFI forged wheels for the Toyota GR86 use 5x100 PCD, 56.1 / 65 centre bore, 790 kg load target, 1,600 Nm torque target, with width, offset, tyre support, and brake clearance matched to the actual car before production.
Square setup logic
Square sizing supports rotation, predictable balance and a clean track-day baseline when tyre and alignment are chosen correctly.
17x9 / 18x9.5 context
These are common performance directions, but final offset and tyre depend on ride height, camber and brake package.
Light car, real load review
The 790 kg target keeps strength margin visible while still allowing a responsive forged wheel.
Stage 3 fitment moat: The GR86 rewards a square, tyre-supported setup. LFI keeps 17x9 and 18x9.5 style targets in context with brake clearance, tyre diameter, centre bore, alignment and whether the car is daily driven, widebody or track-biased.
Chassis-Matched
Width, offset, and concavity specified to the vehicle — specified from measured vehicle requirements rather than shelf-size assumptions.
Brake Clearance
Spoke profile, barrel contour, and backpad machined to the brake package on the exact car.
Forged Response
Lower unsprung mass sharpens steering, braking feel, and ride control — immediately noticeable from the first drive.

A practical, photo-backed GR86 track setup for drivers who want lower rotational mass, stronger tyre economics, and a responsive 17-inch square package. The ET48 spec should be checked carefully against suspension and tyre shoulder shape.
The primary row is drawn from recorded LFI build data. Alternate rows are specification directions — brake template, tyre shoulder, load target, and ride height are confirmed at order time.

Wheel strength is not a single number. Vertical load, braking torque, drive torque, spoke-root stress, hub-pad stress, and bolt-seat behavior are all part of the engineering package — validated together, not in isolation.
The Toyota GR86 has a verified GAWR of 1250 kg — 625 kg per wheel at the axle. LFI targets 790 kg per wheel, providing meaningful reserve.
Wheel strength is broader than vertical load. LFI also reviews acceleration, braking, cornering, potholes, tyre grip, hub-pad stress, bolt-seat stress, spoke-root stress, and rim-barrel torque reaction against an approximately 1,600 Nm per wheel static torque load target.
For the full engineering story behind each wheel, LFI's How LFI Wheels Are Made page covers design, forging, CNC machining, finishing, and quality control.
| Wheel load rating | Per-axle equivalent | Margin vs axle baseline | Status | How LFI positions it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 690 kg | 1380 kg per axle | +10% vs 625 kg/wheel | Red - Low reserve | Use only after exact axle data, tyre load, and duty cycle are confirmed. |
| 790 kg | 1580 kg per axle | +26% vs 625 kg/wheel | Green - Preferred | Street, fast-road, and daily use. |
| 890 kg | 1780 kg per axle | +42% vs 625 kg/wheel | Blue - Extra reserve | High-speed, harsh-road, heavy tyre, or extra reserve. |
| 950 kg | 1900 kg per axle | +52% vs 625 kg/wheel | Blue - Extra reserve | High-speed, harsh-road, heavy tyre, or extra reserve. |
| Validation load case | Reference basis | Suggested LFI target | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Radial vehicle load | Vehicle mass, passengers, tyre package, and selected wheel load specification | 790 kg preferred target | Vehicle mass and sustained road loading. |
| Torque load | Conservative 1g dry braking check with 60% front bias | ~1,600 Nm per wheel | Loads the hub pad, bolt seats, spoke roots, and rim barrel. |
| Cornering load | Lateral force from road grip, sticky tires, and fast-road or track use | Application-specific | Lateral loading under cornering. |
| Combined static load case | Radial load + torque load + cornering load | Application-specific | Real-world loads are combined, not isolated. |
Engineering Article
For forged wheel applications, vertical load is one part of the engineering picture. LFI also reviews spoke-root stress, hub-pad loading, bolt-seat behavior, rim-barrel stress, and combined static road-load cases where relevant.

A practical, photo-backed GR86 track setup for drivers who want lower rotational mass, stronger tyre economics, and a responsive 17-inch square package. The ET48 spec should be checked carefully against suspension and tyre shoulder shape.
This is the most forgiving 17-inch GR86 track and fast-road setup in the case set. The 17x9 ET40 specification supports a 245/40R17 tyre, improves grip over the factory tyre package, and is easier to package than 18x9.5 or 17x9.5 track setups.
This Attack Edition case is a serious square-track formula for the GR86. The 18x9.5 ET45 layout gives a larger tyre platform while keeping outer fender position controlled, but it usually requires coilovers, camber, and careful inner clearance review.
This Cup Challenge case shows the outer limit of the ZN8 chassis: a massive 18x10.5 ET45 wheel used for serious circuit development. This is not a casual street fitment. It requires aftermarket suspension geometry, significant negative camber, exact hub specification, and a tyre package chosen around the car's aero, brake, and class rules.

Yes. Every case study is drawn from a recorded LFI customer build and specification.
Recorded LFI references point to 5x100 PCD. LFI confirms the exact car before machining.
Recorded centre bore reference is 56.1. Hub-centric machining is confirmed per build.
A recorded starting point is 17x9 ET40. Tyre pairing and clearance are confirmed per build.
Yes. Offset, brake clearance, and body clearance are machined into the wheel — no spacer dependency.
Some recorded builds have complete specification data while customer images are still pending.

Both can work. A 17x9 direction often supports tyre cost and ride comfort, while 18x9.5 can suit a more aggressive track or visual brief. LFI confirms tyre, offset, brake clearance and alignment before quoting.
Yes. LFI supports Singapore and Malaysia locally, and ships worldwide with remote fitment consultation.
Yes. Every finish is custom — gloss, satin, brushed, polished, bronze, black, silver, and bespoke options are available.
No. The photographed setup is a reference. Width, offset, concavity, finish, and tyre pairing are adjusted to your car and priorities.
Yes, when the caliper template, barrel profile, spoke shape, backpad, and offset are specified correctly. LFI validates brake clearance as part of the build.
Yes. A comfort-biased setup uses conservatively sized wheels and tyres with enough sidewall for road use.
Yes. Fender clearance, steering lock, tyre shoulder, ride height, and alignment must be reviewed as a package.
Yes, when the cap diameter, clip style, pocket depth, and face profile are specified in the build.
Yes. A square setup gives you tyre rotation, predictable handling, and a clean road package.
Yes. Staggered setups are available when the platform, tyre diameters, and drivetrain support them.
Two tyres with identical printed sizes can fit differently. Shoulder profile affects fender clearance, steering lock clearance, and final stance.
Offset alone does not describe a wheel. Width, tyre size, brake clearance, hub geometry, concavity, and ride height all determine whether the setup works.
Yes. International orders are supported with remote fitment consultation.
Share your model year, brake package, tyre target, ride height, alignment, centre-cap plan, and finish target so LFI can confirm the forged wheel specification.
