    I thought about putting RPF1 on mine but didn't end up doing it. It is one of the lightest wheels put there though and it looks good on almost every car out there.

    Actually the RPF1's are relatively inexpensive for a light weight wheel in the standard black or silver finish. I'm waiting on pricing for the 17x7 in the SBC finish. Was thinking of going with 16's, but the wheel design will be killer in the larger diamater. I just have to figure out what I want and my offset, lol.

    would they stick out too much and cause rubbing? I'm trying to look up the specs for the 15x8 atm and see the offset and all, but it'd be nice for some quick answers from here

    what's the offset? sounds too wide but also depends on your height.

    idk how much off set, but my bro and me put it on just to check it out and seems for the back the wheels dont stick out too much since the car widens out in the back, but in the front it sticks out about maybe a inch...

    My bro says that it probably wont rub since my car's not dropped, but...putting it on will probably drop it a inch or so since 8" wide tires...

    the wheels on scale are 12lb each, but I figure with bigger tires, it might come out in total to a heavier weight then my stock steels, qq

    I probably will just use my stocks until they are up and try to resell in that timeframe

    the tires sticking out past the fenders will hurt MPGs as well.
