Do you guys think the wheelset has to be staggered?

Would 19x10.5 front and rear work?

^^^^I've been under an RCF that was up on a lift. There is absolutely no room on the inside for a wider wheel.

Check out the OEM pancakes x 2 ..!!





There will be major performance improvements on the Exhaust

How long until you have before and after dyno runs with your prototypes?

^^^^As well as being crushed, the rear pipes (behind the axle) are also of a much smaller diameter than the forward pipes. And here's something interesting, I heard an RCF with both sides of the rear pipes, complete with the mufflers removed, and, to me, it didn't sound loud. The stock mufflers are also smaller than the mufflers on the ISF.

Diego,
What wheels do you offer in stock size and offset for the RCF?

Just listened to clip of JoeZ exhaust on RC-F. It quite possibly is the best exhaust system for the RC-F.

Sounds very burly and muscular, but also very high pitched at high rpms. Sounds amazing.
