Been eyeballing wheels for a while now. . Pretty sure I wanna try a set of RPF1s...17s or 18s. I wanna do 10s in the rear and maybe 9s in the front but was unsure about offset and if I wanna do 17s or 18s.

I did search and mostly did pics but manged to find a few. This guy is running 17x9, 45 offset on the front wrapped in 255/40 and 17x10 rear with a 22 offset and 275-40s in the rear. I dig it.

Also dig this cats setup...


I ran into this video but coudlnt find any info at all. Maybe someone that used to be on here? I really like the combo but I have no idea what it is...kinda look like 17s?

I was thinking of ordering through these guys...anyone else have any better suggestions?

I kinda want to do 17s cause the ride is nicer. But 18s looks so good. I am not really into stance and do drive the car spiritedly, and want to pick out a according size. Anyone else running these and have any info to share? Maybe any setups I should be avoiding?

http://www.rimtuck.com/setup/view/231 <- Here's a pretty nice setup on a 2+2 with RPF1's.

Or alternatively, you could just have the specs to the white car you posted a pic of:

That is a beautiful setup IMO.

Seems like that site has what you would need for sure. I've been out of the wheel game so long though, maybe someone else can comment where to source. Seems like fair pricing to me though.

I had no idea that site existed..thanks.
I do like the white one's positioning. Looks like it has some slight camber listed in the notes.
I did talk to another guy running square 17x9 +35 setup and he had to use spacers to clear the front calipers...something I wanna avoid if necessary

Yeah for 9" +35mm you would need spacers to clear up front. Small ones, but needed nonetheless.

I wonder if a different offset would get around that. Pretty sure I know what I wanna do on the rears but ...on the fence about the fronts.

Pretty sure I am gonna do 17s..just a bit more comfort and wheel protection for daily use.
