I miss my RPF1's too Looks great man, but for sure 295 out back next time. I got my eye on a set of 17" RPF1's as I type Maybe, just maybe.

yea the 275 fits perfect up front imo, but the 275 out back has a little stretch....295 would be ideal.

would 295 fit with your setup? (if your fenders were rolled) What brand tires are you running?

Looks like I will need to stay with a 265/35 front if I want to keep running -1.6 camber when I finally get my RPF1s

dunlop sp sport runflats (so i dont have to carry a spare or jack), they have a superhard sidwewall. but yea fenders rolled a 295 would of been a better bet in the rear. im happy with the 275's though

and i think the rear may need a spoiler of some sort, but if anything at all it will only be a factory piece.

If your going to paint the hood... why get it in carbon? It doesn't fit as well as OEM and I think your referring to the HR hood which is from 07+.

Nice setup, i would have gone 285/35 out back at least (will close the gap , 275/40 would also do the same )

For camber you will need around -2.1 to -2.2 to not rub.

i should have gotten pics of the drivers side, its weird the drivers side rear has a finger gap @ most. the passenger has a finger and a half. the gap is less since pics were taken. it was up on jack stands for a month so shocks were unsettled. thanks for the info on the camber settings, i am getting a fender roller next week to roll myself, im going to roll the rears for sure and was going to do the fronts even more than stock but maybe i dont have to do fronts if i get camber adjusted to the specs you specified.

k i am going for the alignment this morning, the car is sitting on d-spec shocks, sportline springs, and 275/35/18 all around, and 9.5/10.5 +15. i am going to go -2.2 camber in the front, any ideas for the rear? the car only rubs the front fenders on a turn while hitting a bump, and in the rear when hitting a bump at speed.
