I'm not feeling the look, but you can't knock the functionality of such a lightweight wheel.

Especially if it's for a car that actually races.

Lighter is always better. Unless you are in the , who's heavier contest. These look similar to the 6UL wheels too.

Yes they look like Emotions, buuuuutttttttttttt weigh good amount less.

Opinions?


Where are you getting those weight numbers? Enkeis' site doesn't show any data for the PF01s, and they show that the RPF1s are 19.7# for the 18x10.5, 19.1# for the 18x19, and 18.6# for the 18x9.5.

PF01 data: http://www.enkei.com/size_chart/PF01.pdf
RPF1 data: http://www.enkei.com/size_chart/RPF1.pdf

Yeah, sorry about that. I started digging around since I was looking for the weight of the PF01 and saw this post. I've asked a few vendors to confirm the weight.

Well, i was wrong regardless where i got the info from originally.

As it appears, 18x10.5 is 22lbs.

I was looking for that original pic i deleted because that ad was all you could find on the wheel, so i must have got it from there.

The 18x8.5 weighs 18lbs, so thats prob where i got 18lbs from.

I've seen / been told by vendors that the 10.5 is 22 and 23#, though they were supposed to be lighter than the RPF1 wheels (which the 10.5 is 19.7#).

Ya, if im not mistaken, the original ad before they came out touted them as being lighter than the RPF01's.

Ok. I have two sources (vendors) that say the PF01 is lighter than the RPF1 in the same size. One vendors says they are 2-3# heavier depending on the size. Enkei still has not updated their website with the specs, which is odd because they say they are the hot race wheel that's selling like mad. . . just weird to me.

Well, the good folks at The Tire Rack have published weights of the PF01 wheels. I've cross-referenced their weights of the RPF1 wheel to what Enkei has published, so that makes their PF01 weight believable to me. Here goes:

18x9.5 RPF1 all offsets: 18.6#
18x9.5 PF01 +15: 21.6#
18x9.5 PF01 +35: 20.8#

18x10.5 RPF1 +15: 19.7#
18x10.0 RPF1 +38: 19.1#
18x10.5 PF01 +15: Could not find (but likely higher than 21.8# given the 18x9.5 PF01 data)
18x10.5 PF01 +38: 21.8#

At the end of the day, it appears these are a heavier version of Enkei's race wheel. Here is additional comparison from what they did publish from their engineering data (of the PF01):

15x7 +41 RPF1: 9.5#
15x7 +41 PF01: 12#

16x7 +43 RPF1: 13.7#
16x7 +43 PF01: 13.9#

18x7.5 +48 RPF1: 17.6#
18x7.5 +45 PF01: 17.2#

18x8.5 +40 RPF1: 18.3#
18x8.5 +48 PF01: 18.0#

^^^ Plus there is no concave to them, they just extend the hub based on the offset
