I know I'm late on this but It would be safe to drive with one lug missing if the wheel itself was fit 100% correctly. Meaning it was both hub centric and lug centric. It is not recommended but it would be okay temporarily. Being that it's an aftermarket wheel, good chance that it's not hub centric and strictly relying on the lugs is very iffy. I personally wouldn't have done it.

Hey Miggity, how low are you dropped and did you have to modify anything for rubbing?

Haha I see that there are two wheel threads, so we might as well post here. Meng is a pretty new sponsor on this forum so I thought it be nice to post one of our company TCs.

Rim Brand: Rays
Rim Style: Gram Lights 57 Maximum Pro
Sizing: Front: 17x8 +33 Rear: 17x8 +23
Camber: F: R: -2.0
Tire Size: 225/45/17
Tire Brand: Dunlop
Tire Style:Direzza Star Spec

Fitment is pretty flush, rubbing was definitely an issue before the fender roll. Drop is pretty conservative as we autocross this vehicle and don't want to have a nonstop rubbing sound on every turn.

Awesome pics in this thread by the way. Keep up the good work everybody.

Those RPF1's and Type-Cs are crazy light! We were definitely considering those for our autox vehicle. However for some reason we went with a heavier wheel just because we were able to get custom offsets

I agree, rs4 still the best lip set-up(wish there was an aftermarket replacement available) would like to see one lower
