bnguyenbb6 Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Good choice on the 8.75 +35, they should look pretty awesome. I was wondering how those 9.75's would look...too radical lol. Did you ever get back on the dyno? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LosAngelesLGT Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 rpf1s are hideous looking IMO .. only bought them because I got a crazy deal and they are super light. The XXRs look better but if I order a set I will not be doing the 9.75 wide and instead running the 18x8.75 +35 Now THAT with some nice 18/245+ tires would be very sexy, I mean sticky, I mean... sexy and sticky! You can see I'm all about cheap and functional for wheels for whats my opinion worth about style anyhow? http://legacygt.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=95843&stc=1&thumb=1&d=1319109045 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The XXRs look better but if I order a set I will not be doing the 9.75 wide and instead running the 18x8.75 +35 I had these same exact wheels... but like an idiot I sold them before I mounted them on the car. Did do a test fit (on pass side front without tire) and believe I still have the pics if you would like to see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitetiger Posted January 10, 2012 Share Posted January 10, 2012 225 wide tire on what is essentially a 10" wide rim is for asshats. put 285's on there and make it fit like a bauce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jabronee Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I agree with the the rpf1 s. I don't like the lower offset ones. That's why I went with the higher offset because the whole rim is sunked in, rather then convexed. Just like the enkei nto3's, the higher offset ones are concaved. If you slammed your car or at least lowered it a bit more so that there's no tire gap it would look a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBlack-V Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I am sorry but I think those wheels on your car makes it look stupid, I can not seem to understand the wide rim stretched tire thing I was 0. And I'm still a zero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EpicRasta Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I think it looks great personally...especially if you did fender flares. Personally, i'm planning on running an aggressive offset with outback sedan bumpers and custom sheet metal fender flares. My question is how are you goign to deal with the wheel bearings since those are +20? Even if you go with +38 (the other size you mentioned) isn't that gonna cause problems too?

I ran a +20 offset for quite a few months with no problems. I can't comment on any long term effects though. Slammed more than your girlfriend.

nemo Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 reminds me of this (at least this guys' tires aren't stretched so much): http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v489/xok/DSC03227.jpg Look stupid IMO... but to each his own.

Yeah, i had them on my car for about 60 miles....took them off after everyone on here said they were bad, and then had to replace my rear bearings under waranty about 2 months later.

PeterJMC Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 I like the look!!! but it's just a bit too much poke and stretch for my taste. I would love it if the wheels tucked better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frkkevin Posted January 13, 2012 Author Share Posted January 13, 2012 Guess most of you guys did not catch I put them on my car for a picture to see what they looked like lol.. I daily the RPF1s. However these would look great and be functional only at 18x8.75 +35 which I may consider.. idk though 512whp/465ftlb 2005 5EAT Legacy (Build Log) Videos - - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kdinh968 Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 How much did you have when you put these on? You didn't need and spacers or anything? They look like they will fit onto the car pretty tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
