Yeah, if I was to get them I think it'd look perfect with like a 10mm spacer in back and like a 1.5 in drop

Take his RPF1s instead. They do look pretty good though.

15lbs for 17x7.5 ain't bad at all, but the +53 offset is why I sold mine. Now that I see 'em mounted, I don't like it as much as I thought I would.

Not bad. A little drop would help.
