I was there with my Lotus (not that you can tell from the commercial... LOL!). Fun day though. VERY fun day.

Link to the album of pics I took that day:

"Kenny" is played by an actor. The stunt driver (whose face is not shown) was two time Formula Drift champion Samuel Hübinette.

Really loved being able to be a part of this production. It was truly a great day.

^ Looks like the TR Motorsport C3, $164/wheel on tirerack in 17x9

Pasted From Tirerack
Front:
Aggressive track fitment only. Use 255/40-17 front and rear. Rear: Wheels with a 45mm offset will be very aggressive on the rear. The bulge of the tire will stick out past the fender edge! Fender modification may [**will**] be required!
__________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ _____________

It's likely a square wheel set up, I believe 17x9 +45 offset.

Tires are Yokohama AD-08 Note: It's interesting to note that while it says use a 255/40/17, they went with a 245/40/17 up front in the ad. You could run a 225/40/17 up front if you wanted to keep the stagger, and then go with 255/40/17 for the rear

Murphy must have posted before I submitted.

No, but the owner of the car probably knows. I believe he has his email address in the original casting call thread in the SoCal regional forum. It's easy to find.
