Confused as hell, what rpf1s can I fit?
Hello. I'm trying to figure out what I can fit, and wheel/tire sizes just confuse the crap outa me. I've gone through most every fitment post and the Rpf1 threads and I'm just even more confused. Currently I have TSW Nurburgring wheels, I believe they are 18x7.5F and 18x9R no idea what the offset is (my car came with the wheels). My tires are 225/40/r18 and 265/35r18. I'm looking at keeping the staggered set up and going to 17in rpf1s
So what wheel/tire size can I fit on a 17in Rpf1 without going any narrower than what I currently have. I'm dropped about 1.5in on Bilstein PSSs and I really wanna avoid rolling my fenders.
Thank you for the help guys.

I went from 255/40-17 RE71R on 17x9 +63 TSW Nurburgrings to 255/40-17 Nexen SUR4 on 17x9 +45 RPF1s.
I rolled the fronts, cut two of the fender tabs off, and pushed the fender liner up.
I rolled the rears, relocated the bumper tab, and cut my rear bumper. No more rubbing.
IMO, and this is just my opinion, I made a mistake going with the RPF1. I like how they look and they were always my dream wheel for a S2000 when I was younger but they do not clear big brakes.

While you are right, I will be going to a different wheel before going to a non-square setup. (track car)

Stock suspension with factory alignment specs for 00', 17x9 +45 245/40R17 squared, You can get away with no modifications but I rubbed here and there. Lowered 1-2 inches, roll all 4 corners and relocate the rear bumper tab. Any lower than that then you get to the area of roll/pull and a more aggressive alignment. Rubbing or not can be/is also related to the alignment specs you have.
