Some guy I met in person was running a 265 tire and he only rubbed when he turned the wheel @ full lock and he said it was barely rubbing (non rolled fenders).

im going with grids when i get rims, whenever the hell that is (kinda hard to spend money when u got a baby on the way)..

i've always loved the agressiveness of the grids...plus with those specs you dont have to roll any fenders

i love the hankook tires too, affordable and awesome performance

Much more of an aggressive look with Grids over RPF1's, but RPF1's offer a bit more performance since they are light. I went with the Grids since I don't plan to track/autox the car very often. It's a big visual upgrade for the money. Ultimately it's up to you though.

Next, IMO I wouldnt get either. Grids look better but Rota wheels are crap. I would save up and get some good wheels like the other guy said RPF1's or maybe soem Advans.
Like I said above, dont buy fake wheels bad things will happen.

You hear more about cracked rims with xxr, but if your just DDing i'd go xxr and save a little money, but if you you want street/track, Rota.
