JCW Legal minimum offset for C stock?
It appears the lowest factory wheel offset offered on a Factory JCW was +48, which means the lowest offset wheel you could use in C stock would be a +42 (Based on the .25" rule). Were there any other factory wheels available that were +45 or +42? For a 17x7? I was thinking of going with some Konig Feathers, but I think their +40 offset is illegal in C stock.

Thanks, yes, I scoured for something else, but alas, +48 it is. I went with the TD PRo Race 1.2's, although I was close to getting the RPF01s. I had RPF01's on my STI and wanted to try something different. Thanks for looking

Thoughts on the Kosei K1 TS.
Shows to weigh in at 15.0 lbs with 42mm offset.
$29 less per wheel than the silver Enkei RPF1 and looks like ~ ¼ lb heavier.

One thing I thought about doing is running a 42-43mm up front and a 48mm in back to help with rotation(might help some) as well as narrowing the rear track. Only issue is, I don't know of any lightweight 48mm wheels(although, haven't really researched much more than a quick look). It would be a fun thing to try out since everything else has been done to my Mini. I'll post here if I can find a 48mm lightweight wheel and actually do it.

If I were THAT concerned about weight, I’d skip the cheeseburger and fries at Five Guys for dinner later this week
Thoughts on tires?
I was an active SOLO participant from the mid 80’s to mid 90’s and then went road racing.
Am looking to play at SOLO again.
Thanks.
