I think it goes beyond simple friendship. Ichigo has a "friendship bond" with Chad, Orihime & Ishida (to some extent...), Renji etc. He and the others have stated on many occasions that his relationship with Rukia is above and beyond that.
At this point, I think it's a stretch to call it "romantic". They have a very strong and unique bond, but it's not romantic yet. It might never get there, or it might.

Renji and Rukia are "best friends". Clearly her relationship with Ichigo goes beyond that (as has been implied by all characters, even Renji).
I guess all the awkward unrequited romance baggage that comes with Renji is what's dragging them down. Ichigo is too dense to ever make a move so she's in safer territory with him.
