Hey guys I need help a little bit. I want either RPF1 or XXR 521(leaning more in the 521 love the look). But I want them to be 17x9 and that they will not come out of the fenders kinda like a stock rim will sit. I'm sorry if this is a dumb question but I'm not really good with rims and offsets. What offset should't be if I want the describe look? And trying to avoid spacers but will use them if I have to. Oh and I'm in swift sport springs, planning on buying d2 stm cause I'm into drag but also a good looking car with beautiful rims. Thanks

For rpfs, you will have to run spacers with 9 width( deep dish ) and it will stick out a lot, so rpfs wont be your option unless you want to run 8.5 width ( Tbh, ugly ). I am not sure about xxr's, but i would go for rpfs over xxrs ( even if its 8.5 width )

Sure I'll play. I just got some CCW (not saying style yet) wheels. 18x10.5+13 up front. 18x11+19 in rear. White faces. Polished bolts. And am going to run a 225/40 all around. Also having broadway static coilovers built at the moment. Cause they are about 2" lower that a Megan racing coilover in the lowest position, when the Broadway's are all the way up I need to camber my rears, roll the fronts and gonna do a slight pull on the rears. Here's a quick test fit pic. Remember, the rear will be damn near tucking wheel. Enjoy. Name:  A4A1BF0F-9BF3-42B7-A083-E80A42B9B45C_zps7vzymqyn.jpg

Correct. I've had a lot of work I had to do to them. I swapped the gold for polished hardware. And have hours sanding and polishing the lips. Lots of damage I was in aware of. But they went from dirty beat up to where I can almost pass them off for brand new.

I'm very excited to get them fitted and have the car slammed. Thanks for the love and or hate guys!

I believe 17x9.5 +18 will be the spec that don't require spacers.

and for 18s it will be 18x9.5 +15 .

Or, you can run 17x9.5 + 38 and run 20mm spacer up front which will give you +18 offset.

My friend is running 18x9.5 +15 RPFs and they look really nice but they stick out quite a lot. You will definitely need to roll the rear fenders and run some negative camber, OR you can run narrower tires such as 235/40/18.

So you'll NOT be driving your car hard with those rubber bands?

That can not be safe.

Thankfully you live far away from me, my friends, and family.

Ensuring you are not on the road with that death trap at the same time anyone I know may be.

That is just plain dumb, unsafe, and quite frankly looks like total ****

disgracing an evo like that. if that tire comes below 40 psi it will just unseat itself, seeing as how it dimensionally can't be seated to the wheel.
