I think it will clear just fine with the +15 offset. I run +10 front and +12 rear and have tons of room.

Hard to argue with RPF1's for track use. Relatively light and inexpensive to replace. Those 10.5 need more tire though! Looks like it's fitted with a 255/35 I want to try 10.5 285/35 at all four corners!

Great guess. I bought them with 255/35... cheap crap tires. That smy plan. Run the rs3 or other 285/35/18 square.

No issues with rubbing at all with full stroke. No spacers either...

Default question about these rpf1

A friend of mine has a set of rpf1 in 17x9 but the offset of these are +45 and they have a bore of 67.1 which is 1mm bigger than our z. They were originally on his rx8 as a track setup.

So would these fit on my z? Does that 1mm difference in bore create a problem? These would replace my Touring v1 as dd/track rim.

I have some ichiba v2 25mm spacers I recently received as a gift if it helps.

Thanks for the help

They would work with that spacer, a lot of guys here would disagree & say no because it's not an 18".

Also because it won't be anywhere near flush, but **** if you like it then by all means go for it.

Just make sure to use those spacers on all 4 corners, also you might want to look into extended studs since thats a big spacer.

Most common RPF1 setup for the Z is a 18x9.5 or 18x10.5 with a +15mm offset.

So to come anywhere "looking right" on the Z, you will need 25 or 30mm spacers.

Bore size doesn't matter, just get hubcentric rings.

But! The face of the wheel is going look like garbage because it is such a high offset on a 17in wheel. End of the day its up to you, it will work just fine with spacers but won't look good IMO.

The spacers come with those built in longer lugs. I'm just afraid of it looking crazy silly which would seem to be the case here without the spacers.

I'm a little hesitant to use spacers on the track too.

Looks like in going to pass on these and keep looking for those track v1s lol.

Thanks guys

Is that a typo on the weight?
