I'd see about test fitting them on your car first.

I put a set of Tenzo Passion 5's in gunmetal on my 04 RA and they pressed up against the front calipers.

I ended up using them for about a week with a 1" spacer untill my new rims came in.

Later

Steve

btw: Those are very nice rims though! My RA is also silver and those would look great on it!

Edit: My passion 5's were also 17"

i have those exact ones, 17" black...they look beautiful! the company i ordered from said they wouldn't fit but i was stubborn and bought them anyways...fit perfect no problem with the caliper...and they don't weigh that much in regards to the stock...don't know exact but i didn't crap my pants trying to pick one up lol

oh yea...if you don't plan on lowering your car i would suggest getting 45's instead of 40's for the sidewalls, it fills the space better

Not sure what else to tell you...

Where are you planning on getting them from? Online or local vendor?

If it's a local shop then they can test fit them for you (well they should anyway), and if it's online then call them and ask about fitment for your RA....they should know if they will fit or not.

But then again
i have those exact ones, 17" black...they look beautiful! the company i ordered from said they wouldn't fit but i was stubborn and bought them anyways...fit perfect no problem with the caliper...and they don't weigh that much in regards to the stock...don't know exact but i didn't crap my pants trying to pick one up lol
they might tell you they wont fit when they will.....


oh yea...if you don't plan on lowering your car i would suggest getting 45's instead of 40's for the sidewalls, it fills the space better
I had 45's on my car before I lowered it and it looked horrible to me....but to each their own
