Did you order any of the 17x8+45 PF01s in this second shipment? I'm quite interested to know how much they weigh. BBK clearance info would also be appreciated.

Nope, not a popular fitment. We will sell them but not much point in stocking them at this time. For example, we sell MORE than 20 sets of RP-F1 17x9 45mm for every one set of 17x8 RP-F1, 45mm that we sell. Generally, customers looking at conservative 17x8 fitments are also the same street customers wanting to avoid fender lip adjustment yet want to be free to run up to 235 sizes....which means 48mm 17x8s sell well and 45mm 17x8 don't. Customers looking for more aggressive and higher performing fitments tend to jump to that 17x9 RP-F1 to get much more performance from the same 235 size tire.
Given that the 45mm 17x9 RP-F1 will easily be lower weight than the 45mm 17x8 PF01....I don't expect much change in the buying decisions for our performance oriented customers looking at 45mm offset choices.

I received a set of the 15x8 +35's from Brian over the weekend. They fit over the MSM brakes very easily. The edge of the tire is pretty much flush to the edge of the fender (but not extending past).
Here are some pictures on their concavity. Hopefully this helps.
