Thanks for the info! I'm pretty close to pulling the trigger and buying these wheels. Any rubbing issues? Any "I wish I had done it a little different" complaints?

Thanks again,
Fil

Can you please post some pics? I'm trying to decide between these and 9.5s with 45 offset.

no complaints. i do rub a tiny bit in the rear on extremely extreme bumps but this is very rare. i love the wheels actually one complaint is that im a lazy *** so im not fond of washing these. i think they should be self cleaning haha.

it will add another 5 lbs per rim for that mod. take it or leave it.

O yea, The inner surface of the axle end needed some sanding and primering though, along with the the ends of the studs.

Im still up on the roof if I like the looks or not, one thing that is for sure is the increase in responsiveness of the car.

now that goodwin racing is selling them i would like to re-ask this question because i've been itching to see these mounted on an rx8

Does anyone out there have the RPF1 TypeRC installed? They are a bit heavier than the RPF1, but still reasonable at 22.7 lbs for an 18x9.5 +45.

I would also love to see what the RP03 TypeRC's look like, which are also available in a18x9.5 +45 at 22.5 lbs.

If anyone has any pics, I'd love to see some. Or, if anyone has seen the RPF1 TypeRC in person, can you tell me if it has a polished lip?


Thanks,

DT

I waited for over a year for those and gave up, and purchased the silver ones. I might still buy them and sell my mine...

Ja you need some bling with that AP unit.

Maybe I buy your enkeis

thanks broda.. been looking for months for a pic of these mounted..

Question to RPF1 owners. Is there a difference in the look of the 18x8 vs the 18x9.5? I have 3 sets of 225/45/18 tires and really don't want to spend the money to buy new tires to fit the 9.5.

Is the 9.5 staggered a bit more?

as long as the 18x8 look like these 9.5's mounted. I'm good

let me know..looking to pick wheels this month.

Thanks!!!!

i can only imagine it looking like riding on rubber bands... i don't think 225 will stretch on a rim almost 2" wider with such a short sidewall as it is...

better to sell a set of 225's

Yes any RPF1

THINNER THAN 8" WILL NOT BE CONCAVE.

To HAVE CONCAVE MUST BE WIDER than 9".

I have mounted both RPF1-RC and RP03-RC to the 8.

WOW. Both sets of wheels look unbelievable. I gave up on waiting for someone to post these pics and just purchased a second set of RPF1's instead.

Those RPF1 TypeRC's may be the most beutiful wheels I've ever seen. Ever.
