I personally like the RC10's but thats just my opinion. First of all what version of the RC do you have? If you have awd, you have to make sure your overall wheel diameter isn't affected by your set up. That being said, I run staggered wheels on my RC with awd just fine. I'm dropped on tanabe's and run 20x9 +38 up from and 20x10.5 +45 in the back. Im sure there are way more configurations that would fit, but I'm sure this one will look awesome with no rubbing whatsoever from personal experience. Next you have to figure out what tire size you want with it. I recommend Michelin always and would do 235/35/20 up front and 275/30/20 in the rear with that set up. Good luck and I hope this helps.

Heres a pic of Roxy for comparison:

Its been awesome and holding strong 8 months later and a snow storm. Im pretty sure I will be using this product on any vehicle I own in the future as well...even if I do use another real lip in addition.

I have the same spring and wheel size setup as suvi2k. I was able to fit (Pilot Super Sports) 245/35/20 in the front and 285/30/20 in the rear, zero rubbing.

Yea, I am thinking to move up to that size next time I switch tires too.

Check out akaeuro_aram on instagram he use to run Rohana RC7. I would check the spec but I'm blocked from work. He is on coils so it might look a little bit different.
