Does anyone have RPF's on their 8 and use the car as a daily driver? Do they bend too easily because they are so light, or do they hold up because they are strong light-weight wheels? I will be using these wheels on a daily driver so this is very important to me.
Thanks,

I haven't had any problems leaving them on all the time. I switch back and forth between them and the stock rims just to save tires though sometimes I get lazy and just leave them on.

Enkei Wheels are some of the strongest light-weight wheels available. I have been running the NT03 for 9 months and have had no problems. You would have to hit something pretty hard to bend an RPF1.

I've had them for about 9 months and haven't had any issues. I love them.

19" RPF1s here, 19.6 lbs per wheel! The finish is holding up really well (I waxed them as soon as I got them to keep them clean). Dust wipes off easily, but you can nick them with a lugnut wrench if you're not careful. Plan on needed some sort of "tuner" lugnut too, because those holes in the hubs are deep!

I have 18x9.5 RP-F1s and so far I've had no issues at all. I swap them for the stock rims + all season tires during the cold and damp but otherwise I'm on them daily with no issues.

Are you running 19x8.5 or 19x9.5? If the latter, any rubbing issues? Thanks.

Can you safely run a 245/40/18 Goodyear F1 DSG3 on a 18x9.5 RPF1?

yes,

you can run that on a 8" wide wheel.

According to the Goodyear website the approved rim width for that tire is 8.0 - 9.5 inches.

Sweet.
