Haha yea. The only problem is my stock wheels are only 6.5" wide! Largest tires I can fit on them is 225s. Love the way the RPF1s look too and they are lightweight, especially in a 9" wheel.

I know they are a heavier wheel, but what about the 8th Gen Coupe V6 wheels, or the ever popular TL wheels?

Yea I do like the TL 5 spoke wheels. I feel like so many people have them though...only thing is, they are 17x8 which would give it a nice stance and more rubber on the ground. I believe they are almost the same weight as my stock wheel, which is around 24-25lbs I heard. I believe my current wheel/tire setup is like 48 lbs per corner. The RPF1s I think are 17.1 lbs in 18x9 and all their concavity

Sacrifices for the greater good...heavier wheels = more engine bolt-ons!

Just a little update. Have some 1/4 mile results to help back up the numbers. Went to Island Drag Yesterday. Just an FYI, the DA was 1350ft. Best pass was a 13.57 @ 101.2 after missing 4th gear. Other 3 runs I had were 13.67, 13.71, & 13.72. Traps were 103.58, 103.71, & 103.90. Definitely happy about the results. Below are some vids of my passes and their respective slips.
