Default New RPF1s

Got my RPF1s today
18x9+35 they seem to fit fairly well, will just need a little camber, fronts rolled and good to go.
Need tyres though so I'm tossing up between 245/40 or 255/35

MMS do 63mm ARP extended studs while normal the normal are 75mm
And will need 7 or 8mm spacers up front.

Any suggestions on tyres for around 200ish each? Kuhmo ku39s seem to be okay.

Nice one Jake...
Will need a bit of camber on the rears to tuck the tyres in, 255/35s will look sick though.
8mm spacers at the front, so that changes like a +28 total offset? Will need heaps camber there

Edit: I think Bridgestone has a buy 3 get 1 free deal on the RE003 right now

Yeah I had a look at the re003s but they don't make them in 255s only 245s

Love the Enkies RPF1s!

245 instead of 255 if it means everything fits better under the guards and you don't need to introduce "heaps of camber"? You'll barely notice 10mm of extra tyre contact when cruising the streets. Motorsport is different, if that's what you'll be doing. My 0.2c.
