Fitting RPF1's For DC2R Help*

[che]

Hey guys i found this guy selling he's RPF1's
http://forum.jdmstyletuning.com/show...mp-strut-brace



Would these fit on my car without adjustments ? or do i have to get camber and adjust my suspension etc.

And $1400 is that overpriced? Should i bargain down..

[wongy]

tbh, it is abit, but not by much, do keep in mind he is saying that it has 90% tread, but i rkn should sell for around 1.2k at most for those specs plus those tyres

Hmm ok true true. thing is the guys up at newcastle.. long drive. Thanks.
i'm still deciding on what rims i should get haha but narrowed it down to a couple of options.









16inch / ?? / ??

thoughts/help haha.

Well i sold something that was a lot bigger with 95% tread left for $1400

It's not a bad price but RPF1'S brand new aren't really that much different in price excluding tyres. I personally run the 595 RSR and love it, great tyre for daily drive and grippy! Just personal input

Ok well ive been looking at sizes for the RPF1s and found these two.

Enkei RPF1 Wheels 16X7 / 5X114 / ET25
Enkei RPF1 Wheels 16X8 / 5X114 / ET15

Im guessing that the ET is another term for offset? And what would be better 16x7 or 16x8?
So what do you guys think, im sure i have to run alot of camber but what else would be needed to run this.

Or are these specs too crazy? lol

You'll need to flare/roll your guards, and run at least 3+ degrees of neg camber to fit the 16x8 +15's at the front.
The rears will need a lot more work.

Oh ok, well i done want that much of a problem. What would be the max offset/specs i can get without rolling my guards on front & back and without too much neg camber.

[tRipitaka]

If you don't want to roll your guards, you'll be quite limited.
I'd say you'd have to stick with 16x7 +42

[che]

Oh ok then, i guess i have to roll my guards then lol
How much would i have to roll my guards for 16x7 +33 and is it a hard job ?

[Hau]

Theres a difference between rolled guard and flared guards. Cbb typing it as im on my phone atm but someone else will probably clear it up

Depends on height/camber.
If you roll your guards flat, you'll be able to get away with running your car pretty low.

Moral of the story, roll your guards flat like origami, get camber kits and it'll open up your opportunities to greatness.

Although a camber kit does look better

Just a few more bucks and your car can stay stock (As in without rolling the guards).

Wise words. Get your guards rolled and camber kit a couple hundred is worth it as now you get a wider range of wheels to choose from.
