RPF1's
 
I want to run the RPF1's in a 17x9.5 with a 255x40. Now my dilemma is whether or not to run +18 all around or staggered +18 front +38 rear. I don't mind rolling my rear fenders i am just not a fan of flaring or running spacers in the front. What is the down side to running a staggered offset? besides not being able to rotate my tires

+38 or +18 all around...I'm not a fan of the staggered setups

also not a fan of staggered

I would not do staggered.

Im probably about to sell my 17x8.5 +38.

Thats what she said.........i mean wait!!! lol

If your only going to run a 255/40 then why you need a 9.5? Just asking.

The only way to run a staggered offset is to have the more aggressive one out back with a very fat lip and a smaller one upfront. But not on an evo the way the body is setup is crap for staggered.

Not a fan of staggered either.

+18

You won't have to do any thing in the front to run +18 in front. You said you don't mind rolling the rear, so you should just do +18 all around.

I think the decision is clear Nick. 17x9.5 +18
