Well, I haven't posted up in a while, but I thought I might as well ressurect this thread.
I ended up picking up a set of 17x9 enkei rpf1's in silver for my street wheels. I'm going to use my stock wheels with probably a falken rt615 or toyo R888 for my lapping / autocrossing this year. I'm not gonna lie, I had a blast this past season with my car in autocrossing. My first season out, and I'm ranked 15th overall in my club (probably has a lot to do with the car), placed 10th i think in our member shootout where we were all driving the same cars, and started to climb the ranks of my division pretty well.
Here's the punch-line. I started the season with stock wheels, running a pair of half-dead pilot sports up front, and a new set of sumitomo HTRZ's in the rear. The last half of the season, i found a rim/tire combo on a local RSX forum (don't know how he got them to fit), but bolted up a set of Enkei RPF1's, 17x9 with Fuzion ZRi's.
In my club, I have to compete in Street Prepared 2 just because of my car, and was consistently dominating anyone on street tires, and even a few on R-Comps. I didn't do too badly for my first season out, although i'm sure while i'm a decent enough driver, while lacking experience, it's also a testament to how good the FD really is even in stock form. Can't wait to see what it does with good tires!
