A couple weeks ago I ordered a set of Enkei RPF1 (18x9.5 +15 & 18x10.5 +15) http://www.enkei.com/rpf1.html



And after doing some research (and lack of response from Yokohama rep) I went ahead and order a set of Nitto NT01 tires; 245/40 & 275/40-18's today.



Already replaced my front brake pads with a set of PFC1038 and have a can of ATE Super Blue racing brake fluid to replace current fluid.

Looking forward to many laps this summer at MSR & TWS!!!

 

Why 245s on the front? You can put 275s on those 9.5" wheels.

 

Brembos or no? Don't forget to replace the rear pads as well.

 

in for pics

 

What group are you road racing with?" SCCA doesnt allow that size wheel in their T2 class. You can run at least 285/30x18 all around with those wheels. You might even put spacers on the front and back to get the maximum amount of track.

 

.....hpde.

 

Gon try these sizes out and go from there.

StopTechs.

RPF1's are on back-ordered till May 17th.

Yeap!

 

STs in the rear? Ballin'!

 

Front & rear;

 

Why do people who do track days(HPDE) insist on saying they "Race"?

I've seen this in both the motorcycle and car community.

Good luck this season.

 

LOL Sorry... HPDE season.

:-D

 

I want one too!!! However stages bro... stages. Me ~><~ Wife.

 

man... 200$ is just a drop in the sea of what you did to that Z
bring her out to fogo the chao and she'll approve.

 

Insurance considers it racing.

 

insurance will consider my farts biological weapons... just to find an excuse to don't pay.

 

LOL I wish! After dropping the $$$ for the wheels and tires I'm gonna have to wait a while. She keeps a running tab in her head!!! Stages bro... I'll wait till she buys another Coach purse or something.

 

Update.... Called Eneki in Ft. Worth and the 18x10.5 are back-ordered till June 11th now.

 

excellent! why don't you switch to 9.5 all around so you can fit anything between 245 to 285 without issues. ?
(meaning the most of the R compound available in 18", unless you want to go 335)

255/40 front and 275/40 rear both on 9.5 wide rims.. no tire bulge.
