I just bought some too. Used off the forum. Keep your eyes open they're slowly popping up in the for sale section.

RPF1's are ugly and played. I see at least 3 sets of them a day.

My rpf1 wish list includes 17x9.5 +35 In SBC finish. I am not a huge fan of black wheels on red cars. When I a ready I will buy them from Brian. He has treated me very well in the past.

I would go with the 17's not for the price of the rim but for the price of the tire.

One thing I really don't understand when people say RPF1's are sexy and so beautiful. Personally, the rpf1 is a very plain wheel without any elegance, almost ugly. The RPF1 is a bread and butter type wheel without much beauty however the wheel has presence as function>form so when you see a car rolling on RPF1, you know they are serious about performance. The aura of the rpf1, for me, is what makes them desirable.
u are right about the function>form, as my reason for these... personally a SSR/BBS kinda guy, but got these for a specific dual purpose use and ended up really liking the look. it somehovv retains a hint of rotary in its rim design... lovely!

these are very mild and doesn't "scream" for attention in plain silver. something i like about it...

don't look for these to "set your car apart". styles and the "in" thing changes constantly, but form and function NEVER fades!

taste is very subjective... so if these aren't right for you, then get something you like. in the end, thats the only thing that matters.

It doesn't matter how many different cars i see RPF1's on i still think they look the best on an RX8. I think the simple design of the wheel looks good on our cars because the rest of the car's styling is so drastic.

Here are mine
