Hey, it's your car and your wheels. If you like the looks of white on NFR and its your style(suits you) then rock it!!!

I know for a fact that white on a LBP looks bomb but I can't rock that because someone else in my town has already beat me to it and is known for that look. I can't be copying him and so I went with the SBC look on LBP and that looks bomb as well. Now I'm known as the only LBP in my town with SBC rpf1's.
Yeah thats why I'm trying to go another color if not a different wheel because someone in my town is already rocking the black rpf1's on a nfr s2k. So if we ever pass each other or pull up beside one another I'm sure it would be a little awkward lol.

advice for anyone looking for the perfect agressive setup... go 17x9.5+38 all around.
At first I had 8.5+30's in the front and it looked hideous because of the semi convex shape to the wheel. I sold them and got 9.5's all around and it made a HUGE difference, it looked so much meaner after that. I had a 235/40 in the rear and a 225/35 in the font (I think). Fenders need to be rolled (no pulling involved) and the rear bumper tab needs to be cut. That's all I really had to do.

Wynn's Setup is nice too!

^you need more than a roll in the front if you wanna run the correct sized tires with a 9.5
i like the white on yellow though

So I finally picked up a set 17x8 and 17x9 from a friend, I noticed that the rears has centering rings on them but the fronts don’t. So my question is, do I need centering rings for the fronts to mount them on or am I fine without them?
