I currently have this wheel only for the rear and was curious to see what offset/setup would be best for the front? I was considering doing 9.5 +15in the front as well, anyone have this setup or could you recomend a better one?

this is a 18x9.5 +22, with a 275/35/18 Kumho Ecsta MX up front, camber set at -2. It's not the RPF1 but i thought you'd like to know what's possible.

Yea thats what Id like for the front. Unfortunately enkei doenst make that offset on a 18x9.5 so I'd be running the +15. BTW your setup is amazing, I think I have your car as my background at work. The pics in the canyon with the burnt orange Z?? Thanks for the pics. Anyone with RPF1's?

i think you should be fine with the +15 18x9.5, you might give Francis at AspecProducts a call. he helped me in choosing the offsets for my wheels and did a pretty good job imo. his number is 626-618-1100 x112, might be worth a shot.

Thanks for the info and the shot of the ss with rpf1's. I think Im going with 9.5 +15 fronts as well seeing as how I was going to do those in the front with 10.5 in the rear.

As far as pulling over bumps (i think you mean grooves in the road that jerk the car left or right), it only does so on really serious grooves.

if you're not doing track days, i'd go with the avs 100. i was able to get about 20k miles out of my fronts and about 12k miles out of the rears (lots of highway driving, so had to rotate in between). the reason i have the mx's now is i went from a 25,000 mile a year commute to a 5,200 mile a year commute, so i don't need as much longevity out of them. I also try to squeeze in a couple track days throughout the year, so it's nice to have the kumho's.

Didn't you used to run 265/35F, 275/35R? Curious why the switch and what your currently running on the rear.
