Ahhh LOL. No worries man. I have to ask, with all your experience and modifications, is there any reason you are running nonstaggered?? Class rules?

And, FYI, the RPF1 is known NOT to clear in 17x9+45 offset. Unfortunately they do not make any other 17x9 size. The 17x8 does clear but apparently it is by like a couple millimeters only.

SCCA Class rules are a 17x8 wheel, Thinking about grabbing some 9's to use for NASA PT races. But I'm not sure of any that fit over the brakes. Reason I originally started reading this thread.

The 17 x 8 +45 RPF1 does NOT clear the stoptech bbk. There are a couple posts here and there that indicate it does, but it absolutely does not. You will need a spacer with this setup. This is what I am currently running.

The design of the PF01 looks like it will allow for better clearance. I called tirerack today to ask about clearance. I'll post when I hear back.

uh I have 17x8 RPF1's on the car and they DO clear the Trophy kit. It's Super close. I run a 3mm spacer for peace of mind.

Being able to bolt the wheel on doesn't mean it fits. I bolted the wheel on, and then measured the clearance with a feeler gauge. It's been a while so I don't remember exactly what the gap was, but I believe it was slightly less than 0.5mm. A credit card would not fit. The spacer isn't so much for peace of mind as for thermal expansion.
