Teaser RPF1 17x9 et 22

Here are some pics of me fitting the rpf's to the ra. Have to do some major rolling to make these bad boys fit.

This is how much it sticks out.

You're gonna have to do more than rolling. Maybe a little pulling as well.

i dont think he'll need more than rolling. theres someone with a lancer running a setup really close to this and all he did was rolling.


nice setup but i dont think the wheels(color) and size(17s) flow right with the car. small wheels on the lancers are no nos.

did some one give you those wheels for free ? ? ?

why would you go through so much trouble to FORCE those to work on your car ? ?

there are hundreds of wheel / tire combos available that will bolt right on.....

.....and.........look alot better / perform better.

^^ His higher offset and ridiculously stretched tires are probably the reason he doesn't have to pull the rear fenders.

ya these wheels actually came off my eclipse haha. I'm planning on lowering and probably going to powder coat or move to 18's but with the same specs. I'm still on the fence if I'll go with these wheels. The tires are 40/245. And to the comment about why not just get wheels with specs that would bolt right up and my reason is I want to have a REALLY aggressive setup haha.
