now one question thats no one has asked..

do u need to roll fenders to get them to fit...

im lowered on espilars?????
is anyone here lowered on espilars with works for rpf1's?
I have the 17x8 +45 RPF1s on the rear as of last week with 255 bridgestones REO50A PPs. With 1.5 degrees negative camber, I just knick the tire rubbing over HUGE bumps (it has only happened once and the mar it made on the tire was less than 1/4 inch from missing the tire completely).

If I had .5 more negative camber, it would not rub.

I am at stock height. If you are lowered, a 255 will be a problem. It is so close however, that a 245 should be perfectly safe.

Please note, I have the 8 inch rear wheel. If you elect to go with the 9 inch rear wheel at +45, you will have issues (probably have to roll fenders and add camber). Of course, the 9 inch +44 Works will be worse by exactly 1 millimeter.

I found a site that sells Enkei RPF1's, 17in . . . for $765. Just the wheels . . . but still seems like a good price

I think concave rears and non concave fronts on the work emotions looks really funny, if your going to get the work emotions I would go concave front and rear. Although you'll have to get wider front fenders

I love RPF1's, that would be my choice

RPF1s look more purposeful, Work looks more show.

I like the RPF1s that were going around the group buy in gold.
