im considering getting these wheels 17x7 but i dont really know what offset to get. and id like to see them on a SW tc if someone is running them.

+35 offset would look best IMHO. (If they come in that.)

I just bought these same wheels for my tC. But I got them in silver in 17x8 with a 35 offset. Even though you are looking at the gold ones, I would recommend a 35 offset. It gives you a deeper center and imo looks really good with a deep center. I have nothing but good compliments on them.

Long answer short, all colors the RPF1 come in have crappy offsets for us. The best offset is a +35 or lower, and the only RPF1 that comes in +35 is silver. Gold is like +46 or something, which is just about stock.


IMO if you really want RPF1's get them in silver and paint them the color you want. I however couldn't do that when I wanted RPF1's, so I just moved on from them all together lol

I bought my wheels from LSD Motorsports. Its free shipping on all Enkei wheels and the shipping was really fast. My wheels were shipped the same day I ordered them. Also, they can sometimes get other sizes that are not listed on the site.

If I had the money I would paint the set I just ordered gold. If you really want to have some fun buy a set of the limited edition black RPF1's from dezod and paint those gold I know it would be an incredible amount of money but those wheels would truly be something else.

gold RPF1's in 17x8.5 with a 30 offset in gold with the wheels being hubcentric right off the bat.

sucks to not have money.

wouldnt it be better to have a 40 offset on 17x8.5? i will be using at least a 235 tires so it pretty much reduces change of rubbing? or i should be good with a 30 offset?

203superwhitetC

what about 17x7.0 what tires and what offset?

17x7.0 is the stock size right?

why would you want something the same size as stock? at least go wider.

and ace i would go with the 17x8.5 et 30, slightly more agressive and can still fit good tires on it.

17x8.5 +30 wont rub right? what size tires?
