finally i can join the club... fitted yesterday, and honestly... i dont like them

the ssr gt1`s in black IMO looked better and more aggressive.

The car is dropped on spoon springs, so coilovers are now a must have... now i just need the cash!!!

This is not fixable???
I'm sure it is but I don't really have the down time with my car since it's my DD. I may take that wheel and have it repaired once I get the new one on Monday.

The reason you don't like them is probably because of your fronts that are convex. If you were to get 17x9 +45 all around or put your 9's on the front and get 9 1/2's in the back then you would be much more pleased with them. The lip and concaveness sets off very nicely neither of those start until the 17x9 +45 wheel.

Hey everyone I need alignment help I just got my 17x9 +45 rpf1s and I'm running 245 40 17 tires, I'm also dropped on espelir springs, any idea what alignment settings to get? Me fenders have the necessary modifications to run these, I'm looking for good set up for spirited driving but also don't want crazy tire wear, help please

Banzai, what front bumper is that? It looks different from AP2 OEM bumper because of the countersunk part on the front..

Go for the Euro alignment specs and I'm sure you'll be happy with it. Very minimal tire wear. BUT you're probably gonna need to roll the fenders and relocated the rear tabs.

I believe it is the oem ap2 bumper. It has the APR lip(replica) on it.
