Maybe a minor stretch on tires?

stretch should do it... but it would cause me to be spinning when I go to the track

 

I am by no means whatsoever trying to rain on anyones parade...but I have completely missed out on the appeal factor of these rims. I mean I honestly dont understand why so many people dig them. Are they like the cragars of the tuning world or something?
I dig the type RC's... but the plain ol rpf1's just do nothing for me. Dont get me wrong... I understand jumpin on some sweet 17x9's...and I know ,"well thats your opinion"..."you suck"...and "you just dont get it" are coming, but I just dont understand everyone jumpin on these specific rims. What am I missing here?

 

Its a light and durable rim. For the cost and spec, its definitely the best bang for the buck. I assume you don't watch any motorsports do you? Because if you had, you would understand why the RPF1s are one of the most used rims.

 

Well me personally I like the style of these. As more the many sets I have RPF1s are the most classic and appealing.

If you don't mind, what type of wheels do you have?

Ace, what bbks do you have? And have you tested your 17x8 RPF1s?

 

^ I have wilwoods, i didnt get a change to try it.. maybe tomorrow

 

As far as the functionality...i totally get that. I just didn't get why they are so popular. I didn't take into consideration that people may actually be using them on the track. Just thought they were "in".
-No, I don't watch motor sports.
-And I am rockin a pimpin set of stockies.

 

^ popular because= super lightweight, durable, affordable, nice looking.. used and got known throughout the aftermarket scene and motorsports.. If you look at rpf1s on other cars, they look pretty mean.. aggressive offset+ huge lip, its just our cars doesnt allow us much of those nice specs

will make deposit once specs are finalized. Bump for everyone else!

 

Guys, I think STIs with brembros run a 17x9+35 with no problem.

quick question, could we just pay the $300 deposit first and when the rims are finished then pay the rest before they mail us the rims?

 

yes, I believe so but if you decide to change your mind, the money is non-refundable.

 

^x2 The deposit of $300 is non-refundable.

 

In that case count me in for the group buy.
