I was wondering if anyone has used Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec tires before and if so had an thoughts on them. The surveys on them seem to be great as well as the reviews, just wondering what you guys thought. Im looking to get 225/50/16 for my 7th gen wheels. They seem like they would bite well for my 3s.

if your going with such a sticky tire get the new Falken Azenis FT-615K or Kumho Tires Ecsta XS KU-36 in 215/45R16 (are meant to fit 7 inch wide wheels), or yes the 225/45R16 BFGoodrich, but again these are mean to fit 7.5 inch wide wheels. You can go for some Toyo T1R 225/40R16 tires (don't know the tire width fitment??)... so its up to you.
FRONT DRIVE SIDE WHEEL, these wheels are 16 x 7 with +42 offset
