can't find the 16" offset but 15" is +42 and 17" is +43 lol

Wow those are more expensive than RPF-1's then. Yeah how about some matte black RPF1 lol after this I'll stop

LOL, Adam.

I like the RPF-1's but the wifey doesn't really like black wheels.
I'd like the lightness of them but not sure about color. It looks hot sometimes but not all the time.

What color are you looking for, then? I think you can stretch 185's on 7 wide, I had my stock 185 on 6.5

TyreStretch.com - Image Library

there's 185/45/15 so it'll have even less stretch than that

Just do what you know is right instead of copying styling fads that are constantly changing ..... You aren't in Jr. High anymore and you are old enough and smart enough to process information and make your own decisions.... You are the one that will have to live with them so go with what will make your car a better ride and screw the outrageous cosmetic nonsense.

This, but honestly the best wheel you can get, for any car ever, is the RPF1. It is simply THE lightest wheel on the market, AND it's sexy. I don't care if EVERYONE had them, I'd still look at mine like they were awesome.

I bought mine because of the weight reduction and the price isn't too terrible either.

It's amazing how big a difference new rubber can make. The stock dunlops pail in comparison to the toyo proxes I currently have on. The lightweight rpf1 type II's with an extra inch of wheel width probably don't hurt either.
