^ you are weird...

btw rpf1 in those specs wouldn't look like this. I don't like how to spokes sticking out on the narrow rpf1's... Might as well just go with a wider xxr. for a better look. But at least the enkeis are enkei while the xxr just copycat cheap rims

Sadly the RPF1's are butt ugly unless they are 9.5" wide or more. I love the XXR but a lot of people have them. I'd go bronze on the XXR's if it were me.

Get the RPF1's. Better (quality) wheel overall... Buy spacers.

Go different and pick Black RPF1 17x8 et 40. I see a lot of cars have the xxr 527.
I want xxr's, but my husband is talking me out of them.

Can't wait to see what you decided on!
