Black on Black Rohana RFX-5s
The concave rears, thin spokes, lighter weight, and Paul's help and knowledge at Need4Speed sold me on these. Fantastic company to deal with before, during, and after the sale!
Couple things are unique though. The rear offset is 36mm so they do ever so slightly protrude from the wheelwells, though its barely noticeable and gives a nice widetrack look from the rear. Clearance may be an issue with lowering springs, and I'll find out soon enough. Fronts are 22mm so right at flush. They also require hub rings. Now the worst news. The axle also needs to be trimmed. I read 2mm on Glen E's RFX-5 thread here but its more like 5mm. You effectively have to shave off the unthreaded portion of the axle end right down to where the threads begin so the center caps will snap in all the way. Couple minutes per side with a 3" 40 grit Roloc, and enough to scare away most buyers to keep these exclusive.  Tires are the 275/305 M/T Street Comps. More pics later after it's clean and I find a nice location:

The wheel looks great.
Did you know about the offset problem and the center cap issue before you bought them?

In my humble opinion, it looks great, but too aggressive. Sticks out too far. I hope you dont have any issues.

When the Eibachs arrive I'll mock up the suspension minus springs and check full travel clearances. |

They look good man, congrats. The car already looks lowered to be honest...it might just be the photo but I barely see any wheel gap on your car.
