^^Those look great.
What's the offset?
I'd like to get a 17x8 RPF1s as a set of dedicated track wheels...

lowered suspension or just the 235s
I am sorry but what suspension are you running on that thing. I have not rubbed yet but i think after another suspension change i might. i have 225 in rear with 45 offset and Cobb right now.
Currently I have RoadMagnet Springs and Hotchkis Sways.
I haven't yet upgraded the dampeners, which I plan to do during the summer. I autocross and run in the DSP class which I usually finish 1st or 2nd in, so upgrading them has always gotten pushed back.
When I ran a 225/40R18 I never rubbed.

Srsly? RPF1 knockoffs? Enkei's are like 200 a wheel.
Money better spent elsewhere especially since they are only going to get torn up on the track. I can afford the enkei's but I just don't see the point. The $300 or so bucks I saved went to my savings account and to make my last credit card payment. By Last I mean I have no more debt.
I honestly couldn't care less about name brand wheels.
The suspension is pretty stiff, but the tire is flush with the rear fender and had very little room for any movement. I tried to do it without rolling the lip, but the first corner I went into all you heard was the sound of tire meeting fender.

They look ok from far away but the closeup, black and white picture makes them look very cheap.
I know what you mean about a track wheel getting dinged up pretty quick. I wanted a cool ass Work wheel when i first started searching to add some more tire beyond the stock wheel. So i realized the Tenzo's i got lost a little weight that the bigger tire added and the little nicks i now have in my wheels do not piss me off as much as if i spent 300 a wheel!

exactly....I would kill myself if... I would curb rims that are 300 a piece or more....
yep Drag DR-21 or something.
Car acts completely different, in a good way, on the autocross course yesterday.
For people who rather spend money on other things and not spend $300+ on one wheel I'd recommend them.
