Sadly my car isn't dropped yet, but here they are on my car. A somewhat conservative 17x8 +35 with 225/45/17 Falken RT615's all around. I'd suggest going 17x9 in the rear; I regret not going with that size. The lug nuts are also the 5Zigen lightweight aluminum set.

seems like more people get the bronze color than any other. I wonder what the polished looks like on the fc.

Its still nice. Its a good sporty look, handful.

Im not sure what to go with. I know the size and offsets i want but not the color. The bronze looks good on black. i dont know how it would look on white. Maybe i should go with the polished face?

I really like them. I've had them for 3 years and they have probably 10k street miles on them and they still grip great. From a cosmetic standpoint they look sweet, and are not really that expensive. They've improved the tires now so it's the RT615K's I believe. When it's time to replace mine I'll be getting another set. And I see why so many drifters use them; after a few parking lot donuts, they're really easy to control and feel their break point.

It was the same for me, I didn't know a ton about sizing when I bought mine. But glad to see the stance isn't too bad once dropped. Are you running any spacers in the rear? I know my fronts will fill out my fenders when dropped, but my rears are inset 1/2 inch to an inch.

To be completely honest, I rarely rarely drive my car in the rain. But I have a few times, and I would say they're ok. Give it some gas and you'll get sideways quick, but the one or two times I drove in heavy rains I was fairly uncomfortable. They have some grip, but if my car was built at all, I think it would have issues getting the power down with my tires. My car is definitely not a daily driver, so I can care less about rain performance. After looking at a few pics of the re760's, I would think they are better in the rain as there are more channels for water to escape the contact area.
