TX RPF01 Question for FD???

I am looking at some used RPF01s, they are 17 X 8, 17 X 9 45 ET. The recommended size is 35ET. I realize I could add a spacer if required but wondered if anyone had any experience with something similar and also...

Is the RPF01 strong enuf for track work (HPDEs etc)

Thanx
Todd

Not sure what 'ET' is...thinking you're referring to off-set but not sure.

FWIW, I'm running 17 X 9 +48 with 255/40's at all four corners. Coilovers area set slightly lower than stock height, street/stock alignment and with no fender roll. No issues.

No direct experience with RPF01's but I'd think they'd be fine as long as they're properly torqued and you have the right center-bore...even with R-compounds.

I've been wanting an excuse to show off this picture someone recently took, and it might be some help for reference.....
