This is going to sound like a total n00b question, because it is, but how much stronger are forged? Is the price difference due mainly to how baller forged wheels are, or something else too?

it's hard to tell from the pics, but do you still have ur brembo's under there? or they dont fit?

what size tires?

I had to have a custom front brake setup fabbed to fit the 15" wheels, then about 2 months later AMS came out with their lightweight front brake kit which is essentially the same thing I'm running, and for less money. They also have a new rally front brake setup which is sweet and still less than I paid. Day late, dollar short, story of my life.

That pic is when I was running Yokohama A033 gravel tires which are a 215 width but I'm on Michelins now which are 195/70-15. You want something somewhat narrow to punch through the loose stuff on top, whether it's gravel or dirt, to the hard pack below where there's much better grip.

Here's a better pic of the brakes, this is on 17" wheels, they look tiny:


Getting any sort of decent brake package under 15" wheels is always a big PITA.

Has tirerack started selling RPF1's in black yet? Or did you have to powdercoat those yourself? I need me some 17x9.5 +38 in black...

Yes they are selling it in black now, there is no need to get them powdercoated

Brian_08

Tirerack has them in black yes, BUT i dont believe they are selling 17x9.5+38, BUT i could be wrong, last time i checked they did not stock that size and have to order them just like all the other vendors. But then again i could be completely wrong. Best of luck on your purchase. i just bought the same wheels in sliver same size from Evasive. cant wait for them to arrive

RPF1 were on evvverrrryyyyy car at sema this year. I couldn't believe it

For some reason, these rims look much better in some lighting than in others.

My set are 18x8.5 +30 (again, they look very aggressive in some light and weak in other)
