    first I didnt like the "stretched idea" but i've grown into it now. Got talked into some Koni fsd with Eibach pro and Whiteline front and rear swaybars

    no offense, but i dont like it
    the wheel/tyre combo look way too small (even for 18's)

    No offense taken but the pictures doesnt really justify it. Gotta see it in person. If I were to paint those rims black it would definitely look bigger but you wont see the dish much

    Nice combo, popular choice. Lots of chat about right height recently with these. Drop some pics in when your credit card isn't on fire

    Na, don't paint them black... last time a mate did that to his wheels they ended up looking smaller... what you need to make them look bigger is moar loooow!
    fwiw i think their tops! just get some lowering happening when you can afford it and you'll absolutely love them!

    Personally I would go for a wider tyre, just to get rid of the stretched look. I don't mind the stretched look on some rims, but not the RPF1s.

    mmmm I do love RPF1s lol

    I think you nailed it - it's the stretched tires making them look small. Gonna have to slam the wheels up against the guards to make it right.

    Such massive arches need 19s IMO but can't knock a great wheel design.

    Use some of this on them and they'll be much easier to clean: Finish Kare FK 1000P Hi Temp Sealant 411gm

    You don't need much, so a tin will last you forever, but it's great on wheels because of its resistance to higher temps

    I like the herrafrush look. It does grow on you actually. Theres a few gen 2s here thats got herrafrush look going on. Although i think once u lower it ur gonna get scrubbing issues like hard. Cause i'm sitting on 8.5 45+ and i get the ocassional scrub taking corners hard. and the back have been aligned to 2.5 degree camber as well so your gonna have to camber hard or risk scrubbing guards. Maybe get them rolled?
