I knew I wasn't going with wider tires (wider than 245's) before getting the set of +35's. I've seen the minimal poke of the same wheel setup that I have last summer and I thought it's acceptable.
If I were to go with wider tires, I'd have gone with the +45 and added a 3mm spacer to avoid tie rod rub.
I was torn between the RPF1's and the MachV Awesomes in 17x9 +42.
I decided to go with the RPF1 17x9 +35's for a few reasons.
I wanted to see what having a lighter wheel/tire setup would feel like.
Was pretty dead set on MPSS' and they don't come in 255/40's...
I didn't want to have to deal with spacers (so I didn't get the +45) to avoid tie rod rub on full lock.
No extra holes on the wheel from a different bolt pattern.

If the Mach V awesomes didn't have the extra holes for the 5x114....it'd have made things a lil more tougher to pick between the two. I may have gone with it cause it'll keep the tires from poking out better...plus the ability to fit a BBK. If I get bored of the RPF1's, I may get a set of awesomes along with some DWS06's or P Zero AS.
