Is anyone running this set up or know if this will fit? I would like to run RPF1 or TC105N with this set up and lowered on some swift springs or similar. Wondering if I will have any issues with this. Will this affect the TPMS at all? Thanks!

for the RPF1, if you have a 250, you should be ok. if you have a 350, the spokes won't clear the front brake caliper

here's my RPF1 setup on rsr downs
18x9.5+30 with 235/40/18
18x10+38 with 255/35/18

That's disappointing to hear as I really wanted to run this. Do you know how much it is off clearance wise? Or do you happen to know of any other wheels in this size that are close to the same offset that would work? Thanks for info!

I'm a big fan of RPF1's too. That's sad that it won't clear the 350's brakes.

don't be discouraged. I have a 350 and I made it so my RPF1 clear my calipers

Every time I see RPF1's, I think Scion TC

255/40 is way too big though! I ran a square setup with 245/40 last summer and was already feeling them being too big. Can't imagine 255/40! You're taking about a diameter that is almost 1 inch more! Go with 255/35 like stock if you want 255 all around.

This is what I'm going for diameter wise. I think I will just got 245/40 all around or 255/40 on the rear.

I got Rays RE30 18x9 +35 (w/ 245/40/18) and they clear my IS350 front brakes
However, I would trust the words from RPF1 owners, since wheels design are different.
I think for tires you should go with 255/35, that's the correct diameter for our car. 255 up front seems a little wide tho...

Thanks for the feedback. Wondering how much of a clearance issue there is. Hoping a 3mm spacer will make it clear but also concerned for safety if I track the car. Thanks again!

Thanks for your reply. Car looks great! I think I may just do the same set up as you but with different wheels. Still bummed out the RPF1 won't work without any spacers/etc. Do you think you could post some close up pics so we can see how the fitment is with the fender? Thanks again!

get proper bolt on spacers and you'll be able to track the car safely. to clear the 350 front calipers, I'm running the 18x9.5+45 RPF1 with +15mm kics spacers. clears the calipers by 3mm and inner arm by 9mm. perfect.

you could always go with the 18x8.5. the convex spokes provide more clearance for big brakes.

Sorry for the ****ty phone pic. Between the spoke and the caliper there's a good 2 fingers length.
