17x9.5 look a 100xs better and have a better feel while on the track.
Looking at your pics, that tires side wall is FAT compared to an NT01.
High Res so you can ZOOM in but youll notice I have a good flare going in the rear. I never rubbed but I did shave the bumper and a little part of the metal on the passenger side.
If you ever switch tire brands, your clearance issue may not be so bad.
Looks Good though!!!
PS....Id buy those
I agree they do look better for sure. And yes the Star Specs are super wide for a 255. I had some 255 sumitomo's on my volks which were 17x9 and I think these 255s look wider on a 9.5 than the others did on a 9.
I also think my car is a little bit lower than yours which probably doesn't help and you also run stiffer suspension. I think it's a combination of all those things. I'm confident though that I can get it to have zero rubbing I just have to play with it a little more. It's almost completely gone now.
where are you guys getting your rpf1s from and how long did it take?
seems like all rpf1 are back ordered. and yea what's up with some missing enkei stickers and some not?
