AutoX Wheels for PP Brakes in DS

I'm looking to replace the stock wheels on my 2020 BRZ PP and go autocrossing this season. I'd like to stay in DS while I learn the ropes and focus on improving my driving. What should I do for wheels? It seems like Enkei PF01 might be the best bet in terms of weight and cost. Staying in DS requires me to keep the factory width, which I believe is 7.5", right? Another option would be to get a second set of stock wheels.

It's my daily, and I've got snow tires mounted right now. I don't want to spend $150 getting tires mounted every winter and spring.

I wouldn’t get another set oem wheels they’re very heavy. Can you go 7j or do you have to stick with 7.5?

The rules state: It is the same width as standard and as installed it does not have an offset more than ±7.00 mm (±0.275”) from a standard wheel for the car. The resultant change in track dimensions is allowed

You could get the TRD forged wheels. They are 17x7.5 +43 and I'm 90% they clear pp brakes

good suggestion! I forgot about those, probably because I don't like the looks of them that much :-)

RPF1s? Even better cost-wise if you can find used

That's a good thought as RPF1s seem to be the defacto standard for these cars. They do apparently come in 17x7.5 too. I don't know if they clear the brakes though.
