    They seem like a nice rim but personally think they look out of place on our cars.

    They look a bit off. Won't lie, but I like the low weight. Pondering changing to a different wheel that's a bit wider.

    Kosei makes a nice light wheel.

    You could buy my works...

    17x7, +42 :thumbup:....:rolleyes:

    Since I'm running in Street class, you have to keep the same width and within +/- 7mm offset. Reason why I went with the RPF1's is they are stupid light (under 15 lbs) and they are strong. I thought about the Kosei's, but there were also back ordered and they are not the most durable wheels. I've had a set in the past that were bent (not due to hitting anything) and there are several reports of them cracking.

    FWIW we endurance race a VW Golf on Koseis and have had zero issues. I go back and forth between them and the RFP1's in my build wishlist.

    Still running stock sways and endlinks on mine. If you have a drill and tap set drill it out. Tap it use a bolt and a nut to lock it down and do it that way in the interim maybe?/

    They probably crack less than Brotas do, but you can damage any wheel of any quality.

    PSA for BRZ/FRS owners. Whatever you do, don't fall for the hype about Shiv@vishnu's Open flash tablet and stupid ****ing "phantom" electric supercharger. That dude is a scam artist and has been chased from several platforms (including subaru back 10 years ago). If you want more power get a real supercharger or turbo kit.

    The ESC works, but it is not a constant thing. Would I buy one never.


    However, the OFT is a great product.
