Enkei TS-V 18x8.5 5x100 45mm Offset 72.6mm Bore Storm Grey Wheel

Flow-Formed 5x100 Precision in Storm Grey for the Street and Track

The Enkei TS-V 522-885-8045GR is an 18x8.5 flow-formed aluminum wheel engineered using Enkei's MAT (Most Advanced Technology) process, producing a lighter, stronger wheel blank than conventional cast methods before final machining. Built for 5x100 bolt patterns with a 45mm offset and 72.6mm center bore, the 522-885-8045GR fits the Scion FR-S, Toyota 86, Toyota GR86, Subaru BRZ, and other 5x100-pattern vehicles. The Storm Grey finish is a matte-tone that complements both stock and modified exterior colors. Enkei's TS-V uses a split five-spoke design that creates a near-monoblock appearance from the front while keeping total wheel weight to a minimum. The 522-885-8045GR ships individually and is priced per wheel. Enkei backs TS-V wheels with a one-year structural warranty.

Key Features

• MAT Flow Forming Technology: Enkei's Most Advanced Technology process applies high-pressure rollers to a cast aluminum blank, compressing and aligning the grain structure for superior tensile strength and reduced weight compared to traditional cast wheels
• 18x8.5 Fitment: The 522-885-8045GR's 8.5-inch width provides optimal stance and tire clearance for 245/40R18 and 235/40R18 fitments on 5x100 vehicles including the FR-S, BRZ, GR86, and WRX
• 5x100 Bolt Pattern, 45mm Offset: Direct bolt-on fitment for 5x100 vehicles with a 45mm offset providing a near-flush profile that tucks cleanly under stock fender arches without rubbing
• 72.6mm Center Bore: The 72.6mm hub bore matches the factory hub diameter of most Subaru and Toyota 5x100 vehicles for a true hub-centric mount that eliminates vibration from wheel imbalance
• Storm Grey Finish: The Storm Grey coating provides a neutral, matte-tone finish that complements a wide range of vehicle colors and resists fading, staining, and light corrosion in road use
• Split 5-Spoke TS-V Design: The near-monoblock split spoke design reduces unsprung weight, improves brake cooling airflow, and provides a clean, competition-inspired aesthetic

About Enkei

Enkei Corporation was founded in Japan in 1950 and has grown into one of the world's leading manufacturers of lightweight performance wheels. Enkei produces OEM wheels for factory programs including Toyota, Nissan, Honda, and others, as well as aftermarket wheels for enthusiast vehicles worldwide. The MAT (Most Advanced Technology) flow forming process was developed by Enkei to deliver racing-grade wheel strength and weight targets in road-going aftermarket fitments.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Enkei 522-885-8045GR is the TS-V model wheel in 18x8.5 with a 5x100 bolt pattern, 45mm offset, 72.6mm center bore, and Storm Grey finish. It is built using Enkei's MAT flow forming process for reduced weight and improved strength compared to standard cast wheels. The wheel is sold individually and priced per wheel.

The 522-885-8045GR fits any vehicle with a 5x100 bolt pattern, 72.6mm center bore, and sufficient offset clearance for a 45mm offset in 18x8.5. Common fitments include the 2013-2016 Scion FR-S, 2013-2021 and 2022+ Subaru BRZ, 2017-2021 Toyota 86, 2022+ Toyota GR86, and 2015-2021 Subaru WRX. Always verify clearance for your specific tire size, brake caliper, and suspension setup before purchasing.

The 522-885-8045GR is sold and priced as a single wheel. You will need to add four units to your cart for a complete set.

For an 18x8.5 wheel, common tire sizes are 245/40R18 and 235/40R18. For FR-S, BRZ, and GR86 builds, 245/40R18 is the most popular choice for this size without needing fender rolling or flaring. Always confirm clearance against your specific suspension and wheel arch before mounting.

The 522-885-8045GR has a 72.6mm center bore that matches the factory hub diameter on most Subaru and Toyota 5x100 vehicles. No hubcentric rings are needed for correct fitment on these platforms. For vehicles with a smaller hub diameter, hubcentric rings would be required to properly center the wheel.

MAT (Most Advanced Technology) is Enkei's proprietary flow forming process. A cast aluminum blank is spun at high speed while hydraulic rollers compress and stretch the barrel section. This aligns the metal grain structure, increasing tensile strength by up to 20% compared to standard casting while simultaneously reducing wheel weight. The result is a wheel that combines the design flexibility of casting with the strength and weight benefits of forging.

Enkei provides a 1-year limited structural warranty on the TS-V wheel against defects in materials and workmanship from the date of purchase.

Yes. The MAT flow-formed construction of the TS-V gives it the strength-to-weight ratio needed for track use. The split five-spoke design also improves brake cooling airflow compared to heavy cast wheels. Always verify that wheel and tire specifications comply with your track or event regulations before use.

Installation Instructions

1. Mount the tire on the 522-885-8045GR using a professional tire mounting machine; do not use a hammer or manual bead breaker tool to avoid damage to the wheel lip
2. Balance the mounted assembly on a computerized balancing machine before installation
3. Clean the hub face and wheel center bore contact surfaces to remove rust, paint, or debris that could prevent proper seating
4. Install the wheel onto the vehicle hub, ensuring the 72.6mm center bore seats fully on the hub pilot
5. Thread all lug nuts or bolts by hand before applying torque to prevent cross-threading
6. Torque lug fasteners in a star pattern to the vehicle manufacturer's specification (typically 85-100 ft-lbs for most 5x100 applications)
7. Re-torque after 25-50 miles of driving to confirm fasteners have not loosened after initial seating
