I finally received my set of RPF1's

I got them installed and lowered the car on Eibach springs at the same time

17x7.5 et48 215/45/17
17x9 et45 245/40/17

The rears rubs on HARD bumps








The rest of the photoshoot can be found HERE
roll your fenders... that will help a lot. you *might* have to relocate the rear bumper tab also. but I had the same setup and after a roll I was ok most the time. then i went up to 225/255 tires and it rubbed A LOT. relocated bumper tab/bolt and now i don't rub. im on the same springs on stock shocks. it's really soft that's why it rubs so easily.

Quick question, I am looking at a set and was told that the rears are 17x9 with a 40 offset, Enkei's specs say they only come in 22,35,45.

So i am right to wonder correct?

the 17x9s are definitely either +35 or +45. There wasn't a +40
