Hi guys, I recently joined the forum and enjoy seeing everyone's RCs and how they have modded them. ours is a lease so the only mods planned are new wheels on the stock tires and obviously the windows are tinted, since that is what I do. I used SunTek CXP45 all around and CIR70 on the full windshield. this is my wife's driver, but I get to drive it some...lol. we will flip it in 2 years and probably get the same car just Ultrasonic Blue the next time. but we do love the Ultra White. our car is a 200t F Sport and while it has decent power, we will probably go for the 350 next go around. anyway, just wanted to say hi!

this was the 10th anniversary F we saw at the New York International Auto Show...

Thanks! You wouldn't by chance know the specs on the stock wheels would ya? since I am planning to replace them soon, I don't want to get the wrong backspacing.

Depends on the packages you have. Some cars have different wheels/tires depending on how its optioned from the factory. Google search is helpful!

You can mod leases too, you have to just be able to covert back to stock at lease end

See post here for info on finding specifications for tire and wheel packages on the RC (according to online owner's manual, page 633), as you have 19" staggered wheels, you either have type G or type F, both with 19x8 front wheels and 19x9 rear wheels.
I was mainly wanting to know offsets and hub bore. as I don't want the wheels sticking out past the fenders and looking weird.
