Default Just ordered my RPF1

more like a down payment. I should get it in around 2-3 weeks. Can't wait.

F: 17x7.5 +48
R: 17x8.5 +40
These size shouldn't really give me any problem right?

My tire choice will propably be Falken Azenis Rt-615. I really wanted the Potenza RE01, but don't have the right size.

their the oem rim size except for the offset, so why wouldn't you run OEM tire sizes? The 615's don't come in OEM ap2 sizes (215/45...245/40), so youl have to get the 415's.

you won't rub with those offsets in the front, but the rear might rub if your very low and not rolled. just think of your current rear wheel 15mm out more.

I wasn't aware of that.

Tire wise, stock sizing would be ok for me but I want some grippy tires with my setup so I opted for Azenis, RE01R, or RS-2, all are very aggressive tire with a relatively cheap price tag. RE01R was my top choice but didn't have my size so I went with my 2nd choice, the Azenis. Also, i am all stock right now, so rubbing shouldn't be a issue.
