18 inch RPF1'S
 
Just got the rims about a week ago, here is a couple of pics of my RPF1 's 18x9 +35, 18x9.5 +15. There aren't too many choices with the offsets but i think it worked out pretty good. With the +15 offset in the rear i was hoping for a bigger lip but i think it looks good anyway. Let me know what you guys think.

Wow looking great!! I love the RPF-1 design..

KYO Z May 8, 2006 09:33 PM

Thanks! I got them for the great looks and extra light weight design. plus they got a good reputation for being just as strong as forged rims. living in NY, i cant risk bending or cracking my rims.

Very nice. I also contemplated those wheels.

Love those wheels. I wanted them in 19's but I didnt like the offset they offered.

Yeah, i know what your talkin about with the offsets. kinda strange when enkei advertises the rpf1's on the 350Z. They should definetly open up the variety. However, if you notice i have 18X9.0 +35, they don't even have that size on their website. Try calling them, they may have what you are looking for.

What other rims are looking at? Take a look at AME wheels, very similar look. Josh at AutoRnD just put them on recently, he helped me get my rims and it took only about 4 days to be delivered. I think his sn is anotheraznguy and he might be selling them already. He got pics of them on his car i forget the title of thread tho.

good luck

i really contemplated those rims also. i just really liked how light they are compared to other rims.

KYO Z May 10, 2006 09:40 PM

Yeah i wasn't sure if i was going to notice the difference in how the car performed, but it feels like it accelerates a bit faster. The cornering grip is much better probably due to the width, besides stock tires are trash. definetely money well spent.

mpaige22 May 10, 2006 10:40 PM

those are actually good lookin wheels for 18's

truplay8 May 11, 2006 11:32 AM

lookin good......get some center caps ASAP

KYO Z May 11, 2006 07:06 PM

Thanks guys.

Actually I thought it would look more like a racing wheel without the center cap. But now that you say that, i kinda feel like i should get them. Tell you the truth my neighbor said the same thing, he was like "Damn! someone stole your center caps already?" I then had to explain to him why i didn't want them.

If i decide to get a set, do you know if i can get "Nissan" or "Z" center caps for my rims? could look weird since it says enkei all over the rims. well either way, i like how the rims look just the way they are. so ill save my $50 bucks and invest in something else like a Fairlady Z badge or my suspension mod savings account. lol

Wendy Aug 18, 2006 08:10 AM

i've always liked the enkei RPF1's .

superppwZ33 Aug 19, 2006 06:09 PM

looking good
i feel ya on the offsets cuz the rear is perfect the front is high for a z
the positive is u can throw a lot of rubber up front

JhayRCruz Aug 19, 2006 06:53 PM

thats an ugly lookin spoiler... hmm u live in NY. Juss sell it to me and save urself the embarrasment hehe.

KYO Z Aug 21, 2006 07:31 PM

Hey guys,

thanks for the feed back, but unfortunately i just sold my z to a new member of tsz33.com. I still have the rims if anyone is interested in buying them. 18x9+35 in front and 18x9.5 +15 in rear with avon tech 550's. the front are 18x9, this is not a misprint, you may not see them on the enkei site but i spoke to someone there, and he gave me the part number to order them. if anyone is interested in them please pm. they only have about 3-4k miles on them and i dont beat on my car so the tires are almost 100%. i am taking best offer.

bacalhau16 Aug 21, 2006 09:07 PM

well what are you looking to get for them?

KYO Z Aug 23, 2006 11:21 AM
