I wondered that myself. Someone on FB is selling a set of used RPF1s with with those dimensions. I was concerned about the poke myself. He is running on 235/45 which is not wide enough for my needs anyway. I have pics of his setup and they looked decent enough, even with a little stretch. Just wondering if someone had any insight or experience with that offset. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Probably a typo, iirc the wheel specs are inscribed inside rpf1s including offset, ask for a picture.
Like this: 17x7.5 +48 offset |

You can tell just from the face of the wheel.

Anyone have the SPC rear lower arms with Delrin inserts? I'm about to throw them in the trash since they make so much noise. Have a way to shut them up?

My vote for trash is because I hate aligning with them... Can't help on the noise issue, I have Racer-X and don't know how much they're contributing to road noise vs Raceseng top hats vs subframe/diff inserts. My exhaust is currently rather quiet. Will get louder once I can fix the FP I got so it actually fits...

We have the SPC arm with the Delrin insert, doesn't make any noise. Did you try to over torque it? I don't think I used a torque wrench.
Did you replace the rear end links? Last edited by justint5387; 05-10-2018 at 12:02 PM. |

I took it all apart last night and figured it out. The right side bushing/insert didn't freely rotate, it was all bound up. Looks like it wasn't concentric when installed into the arm. Did a little machining to them and seems to be working fine now. |

So, I tried installing my new brake Centric rotors last night and could't get the stock rotors off. After almost 80k miles I guess they've rusted on to the hub. Any advice on how to get them off?
