Pic Request: RFP1 19''
I've done tons of searches for the RPF1 in 19''. Every pic I find has 18s. I'm pretty much trying to see if the 19s are more concave than the 18s.

Thanks! Yeah, they do look the same when it comes concaveness but those 19s do look pretty sick though.

I never knew that. You got me thinking about 18s now, plus tires would be cheaper.

BTW what profile tire would you recommend for this rim in 18''. I've never really considered 18s before. The only thing I don't like about 18s is the tires being too meaty from most pictures I've seen.

Given the exact same width, offset, and face/disk, an 18" wheel would have more concave than a 19" wheel. It's just geometry. That said, oftentimes wheel manufacturers have diff faces for different sized wheels, plus diff width and offset availabilities, so it doesn't always hold true. It's a tough call...

i got 275 35 18 and next time im going with liek 295 in the rear...285 will be fine plus if you slam it it will be sick...also the 19s don't come in as low of offsets as the 18s and are also heavier. i made a thread of mine recently if you want to check out what they look like.

18s are nice but I just cant resist the 19s. You're right, spacers would do that car justice.

i think the 19s dont look right anyway there to open faced theres almost no wheel there. Meaty tires are the way so go! or just wrap the wheel in duct tape and roll on the rims

I believe I'm one of the very few rolling on 19" RPF1's 19x9 +18 245/35, 19x10 +22 275/35.
Here's a link to a thread with pics of my Z, look for the CS amuse.

Also fyi I might want to get rid of them if the price is right.
