I applaud your wheel choice. Best wheels on planet Earth. Nice Si. How much do the stock wheels weigh? And what are those, 16's? Probably save what, 5lbs per corner? 20lbs total of unsprung weight. I bet it handles 10x better than stock.

What are you lowered on?

Yeah best wheels! Thanks! I'm not sure but the rpf1 are very light! 14-15lbs I think for these wheels. 17x8. Oh yeah WAYYY BETTER!

I think it was Deflip on here that mentioned to me the SJ meet! It's kind of a hike for me, though. Build is going well, just trying to figure out what to do with it next!
