Because I couldn't get my +45s to rub even when I pulled the springs out. |

That's good to know ! I think I found a deal on RPF1s with +45 ... even though still it's looking like the +35 a better choice. Especially since I think I'll stay stock suspension for a while.

Hey friend, would it be possible to get a birds eye picture of the front wheels poke, much like you have for the rear end. Otherwise, these pictures are great for reference ty

I'm in the process of making this same decision of +35 or +45, and I prefer the look of the +45s but it seems the +35 has less rubbing issues. |

I was under the impression 45s rubbed on stock struts but apparently others disagree, I never tried it. No other rubs to my knowledge. |

But if the tyres rub the the fender liner with +45 without spacers but don't rub at all with the +35, I'd be tempted to go the +35 despite the slightly more flush look just to avoid using spacers. Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk |

Ashame these don't come in +40 would be the best fitment between the 2 options

Would Enkei RPF1 Wheels 17x8 +45mm be really sunken in and look bad? I would be getting coilovers at some point at the end of the summer (if that can fix anything).
Everyone here seems to prefer the 9's but 8's still seem like a good improvement over the stock rims. I'm less interested in looks as I am in maximizing the performance of the vehicle. What specific trade-offs are there? More traction versus less weight/better fuel economy? I won't be putting a turbo or supercharger on it (at least not for awhile) and I don't want to put too much tire on the car for its current power levels. Making the right wheel choice is harder than I thought it would be. |

Help, 17x9 +35 or +45 RPF1?
Sorry I don’t have a better picture, but here is 17x8+45 with a 245/40/17 tire. If you ever plan to use a big brake kit, the 17x9 often causes fitment issues. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
