Default Enkei RPF1 w/ Falken Azenis RT-615s installed

Got my car back from the body shop on Thursday and put the wheels and tires on right away. The tires really are amazing and at on $120 each for 225/45-17 with free shipping from www.discounttiredirect.com , these should be at the top of anyones list whos looking for tires. It rained the last few days and they still had excellent traction by the way. The wheels are Enkei RPF1 in 17x8 +35:

Any reason you went with the wider tire/higher sidewall?

My car will see the track (roadcourse) regularly so anything larger than 17" will be a degradation in performance. I bought these wheels due to being 4 pounds lighter than stock while being 1" wider with better clearance for the BBk

Mine didnt but Im considering getting them. Only problem is they stick out from the wheel and look a little funny. Not sure what to do yet....

Youd be fine with the +45 offset. Its possible the BBK would even fit with that offset, but Im really not sure. I went with the +35 for BBK clearance and to widen the track of the car. It aslo fills out the wheel wells better,
