Prob. I must say though. Anyone who has a stock frs and takes it around a track then steps in my car and takes it around a track.... You would be like WHERE DID ALL THIS GRIP COME FROM AND THE CAR FEELS JUST AS FAST IN A STRAIGHT LINE??? And it's just enough because the tires still break loose when you want and easy to drift still. I'm assuming this is because it's near the same weight and hardly wider just a better compound of a tire and the 8k spring rates of the BC BR coil overs make absolutely no body roll practically.... If your looking to stay close to stock my set up is ideal in my eyes. Deff not changing my sus/wheels anytime soon. Brakes and power is next on my list! May get a strut tower bar but it's near the bottom of my list.

Enkei PF01 17x8 +45 (Silver)

Just mounted my Enkei PF01 today. Ray's black lug nuts. Hoping for no substantial snow over the next few weeks. As mentioned in a previous thread, I'm keeping the stock Bridgestones until they wear out. Then I'll likely step up to a 225/45-17. Sorry for the lackluster photos...it's a crappy day in Pittsburgh and I used my iphone.

Based on the research I've done, should save roughly 3 pounds per corner.

AND before anyone else says it, it does need moar LOW. I will likely get RCE springs over the summer.

Hey Darren,

It's time for my contribution to this thread! I've got plenty of pictures below. The wheels are Enkei PF01 17x8 +45, wrapped in 225 / 45 Michelin Pilot Super Sports. Not sure the combo weight, but the wheels by themselves weigh in at 18.20 lbs each.
Also, your beer is actually going to ship out next week

Pics:

Getting my Hubcentric rings installed at a local Discount Tire. Ended up grabbing some Aluminum ones directly from Enkei



Had to pick the one cloudy day we get here in the Phoenix valley

When you had the 10mm spacers were you using the stock wheel studs? I'm thinking of doing the same but don't know if the stufs will be long enough.

How did you get your rally armor to sit in the wheel well?

They're tucked as far as I could. They still stick out just a little. I didn't alter them at all, although I bet the bracket could be slotted to allow a little more inward movement.

Zoom in on this photo and you can see the flaps fairly clearly. Name:  ImageUploadedByTapatalk1396537098.679107.jpg

Nah my mom would honestly thinks it's ugly, especially since it's a white twin. She prefers every other color variant of our cars.
