I really like RPF1's but that looks like too low of an offset combined w/a spacer?

Looks like youre going to crash your tire into the fender

Yes, for sure, serious rear fender work required to fit w/out rub.

The only thing helping this +18 offset is the 9" width vs 9.5. Front fender fit will be OK w/some lock rub but the rears will need a roll, pull & bumper bolt

I saw that post. 17x10 +18. Im sure it looks cool or whatever, but can you imagine the rub potential? Just a terrible spec & really just for show unless youre running over fenders.

And not to bash, Some of us are more function oriented than others

Hate to bring up old s**t up but in this case I feel like I can't let this one slide. I believe a couple guys owe you an apology as what you stated was indeed correct and this DCVIN guy is selling his set as reps now.
