I'm in the process of upgrading my wheels.
To Enkei RPF1's. 18x8.5 +30 with 245/45/18 tires
The tire does rub the fender under spirited driving with 3 people in the car.
Moar pics when I get the front ones.

Bummer about the rubbing, I am planning on running a 9.5" wide tire all around once I have the cash (after coils). I'm hoping for little to no problems with spirited driving with one other person

You meant 225/45/18, right? Those are some light wheels.alphapig wrote:I'm in the process of upgrading my wheels.

Yes, it's +30One Crazy Max wrote:
the size that you have on yours is not looking to nice. the offset is not deep enough, and it looks as if it is concaved outwards.
are you sure that is a +30 offset, because it sure doesnt look so.
I love the concave look as well. Unfortunately that happens at a much lower offset and wider wheel. Think 9.5 and 10.5 with +15 offset.
No, the tires are 245.kuhan wrote:You meant 225/45/18, right?
Why?
Re: (One Crazy Max)
That's definitely +30 he's almost poking. Look at the rear wheel man.... he wouldn't be able to get any more aggressive without flaring that fender out.One Crazy Max wrote:i love that style of rim, i plan on getting that same rim for my car.

Still waiting on the front two.
After that I need to roll the fender lip flat so I can take more than 1 passenger through some twisties.

Re: (alphapig)
i honestly like the ones on the front better than the back silver ones... they look smaller even though i know theyre 18's. jus look odd to me
Looks much better in my opinion. I don't like the Enkei RSV and I like silver wheels with that color more than black wheels. RPF1's do look small in pictures because of the spoke shape and step lip but they are an awesome light-weight wheel. If you get your car lowered a tiny bit more the RPF1s will look just right.
