even though almost all of the GC-07's are gone (17" gold are still available) they are forged. Also the GC-06's are forged (only 18"
white available). The PFF7 is flow formed which is a process commonly used by BBS and is in no way similar the the semi solid forging process used by SSR

Now that you mention it, will the 17x7.5 wheels clear on an RS. Because I know that right now I have a little bit of fender rubbing with 17's using a 215/45R17 tire. I even have rubbing with the stock tire size. I am pretty sure that in the end it comes down to the stiffness of the sidewall.

I have the Prodrive WR suspension. It has Bilstein shocks with Eibach Springs. It only lowered the car about an inch all the way around. But under some hard cornering situations, the tire will rub the inner liner.

How will the +48mm offset (from the GC07C) work with a 99 RS with suspension?

Dude, I live in Washington-DC and have ben hous shopping for a year, your house is beyound PHAT !!! It looks like the back of the residence of DAVID LAPWORTH (prodrive director) in the U.K.
You've got the cobblestone goin' on and stone with the wood trim,..OH YEAH THE SUBARU IS NICE TOO!! BLAH, BLAH, BLAH,..

ANYWAY,..nice house and honestly the wheels do look good on your car, it's time for some 14.8 inch Performance Friction rotors with AP front calipers(6 piston)...I can see the DMS 50mm pokin' through !!!

Hey man , nice setup, that picture is one of the best shots on I club, graded for total content. I know sometimes you see a real nice car, parked on the street in the hood, or in a not so nice apt complex, but your setup is sweet !!

#1.) yes but, not that many
#2.) yes do it all the time
#3.) depends .... express 10-14 days standard could be as long as 4 weeks because all we do is get it to the armed forces mail system sorter in NY (I think) and they take it from there
APO or FPO

No serious camber adjustments. I am running 0.8 degrees in the front and stock in the rear.
