Haha. I didn't even notice that until you said something.

I'm still trying to decide if I like RPF1s on the X. Im thinking about ordering some black ones for my WW, but still not sure if that's what I want to go with. Some pictures make them look AWESOME.. and then some pics it's okay.

Alignment specs? Any rubbing as is on the Swifts? Tire size?

Basic alignment at tire kindom. Nothing fancy. There is rubbing with these tires on larger bumps in the rear and it has damaged my inner fender in the front part of the fender.

Tire specs were in the post you copied, but I'll put them up again just for you . Nitto NT05 275/35-18.

I am rolling the fenders soon and putting on the 4100s. I will probably not lower it too much more.

Do any of you use spacers with your RFP1's? The reason I ask is that when I had them removed (w/summer tires) and had the OEM with winter tires installed in November, the mechanic stated I should have spacers installed on the Enkei's.

Can you tell me the size if you are using spacers?

How well does the flat black paint on the RPF-1's hold up to road debris/rocks/etc.? Any issues with chipping?

Only had them on for about 2 weeks but so far it holds up better than the PB paint

Thanks
