True, but then he would have to install longer studs, which isn't cheap and is a general pain in the ***. It's easier to just buy the +38 in silver and powder coat them if he really wants black

Nah, I stuck with the +45 offset. I've been doing a lot of reading and learning about tires and have noticed that many people run the 265/35/18 or 275/35/18 and hear about it being a beefy tire setup. I dont really plan on autoxing my car a few times if even at all. Im basically just using it to get around base and the surrounding area. Does the "beefy" tire setup look better with the rpf1's than the smaller width tires?

Tpms sensors that were previously on other wheels should fit as well and those are on my list.

Ordered 265/35/18 hanook ventus v12 evos and tire pressure sensors from Dan@assaultech. Also gettin them mounted and balanced by him. He's been great with helping me out since the beginning. I'm most likely going to buy the hks hi power single from him later on and then take a break with modding.

Make sure you double check the air pressure. Don't trust that they have them right.
