of money on mine.
so i think my choice was a little better.
no disrespect
lol i just said that because the RPF1's might be my next rims.

hey man the wheels look great. Heres my question for yah. Did they need a a hub centric ring, or did they go on without any problems? Also any rubbing issues with the 18's? They look great though man, good job. As i know everyone seems to be getting these wheels right now, but atleast you have a good variety of colors and finishes to choose from.

mag i dont know if they necessarily need the centric ring. they came with them and i didnt want the axle to be bare on there so i put 'em on. real easy to put on they just snap in. i think they are rubbing im not exactly sure tho. theres a sound coming from the left front side when im going down a semi-bumpy road. its not bad tho if you just turn the radio up a little bit. thanks to everyone who has replied on these

Nice wheels, I always seen in 17 inch only. Very nice looking 18's.

I had 18's on my ride before, 215/35/18 and never had trouble with rubbing. Maybe if you had full capacity in the car and taking a hard turn and your suspension is weak enough. I had the 18's with Tiens and no rubbin issues.

i think it is rubbing a little bit.
if it isnt something is going on in the left front fenderwell. there is definitely a little plastic sound coming from it.
do you guys have any idea of what it could be?

it probably is rubbing, you will have to get a good light and look up under there, you will know right away if its rubbing or not when you see whats going on, but if its only one side i have no idea, but if its both then you already know.

So you got hub rings, thats nice. They didnt send any with my rims. Kinda pisses me off now. I even e-mailed them about it and they said i shouldnt need them. If i do need these things, where would i go to pick some up at?
