2012-2015 it's Ultramarine, 2016-17 It's Oceanic Blue (Lapis Blue Pearl K3X) Slightly more pearl and purple flake compared to Ultra.

You can probably fit a 245-255. I wouldn’t go wider. Why not 17 if you’re going 9” wide?

@arthur93 how does that car feel with that wheel and tire setup? I've read some people say, especially those that are still NA, say that too much grip can take away the fun from the car and can "over-tire" that chassis. Thoughts?

I am currently running Bilstein B16 Coilovers. These reuse the stock front hats so also have Verus Engineering Camber plates for the front and Verus Engineering rear LCA. Front is dropped 30mm and rear 35mm. Have -1.7 camber up front and -1.5 in the rear. There is a thread dedicated to the RPF1 in a 17x9 +35. I recently posted in it so it should still be on the first page. I don't believe you will rub on stock suspension but you will definitely have poke.

I do quite a few skidpans as well. I have kept my stock wheels with the prius tyres for that. I will however be using my new set up at a wet skidpan next week. My mate has the same 245 tyre but on 18" and he drifts like nuts so definitely still doable. That is next saturday. Happy to report the results.

RPF1s in SBC... 18x9.5 +38 paired with 265/35/18 Pirelli P Zero Rosso (got an amazing deal on them).
Feels amazing, and not noticeably heavier than stock. I absolutely love the grip, but it still needs rear LCAs and an alignment. ![]() ![]() ![]() Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
