Default Enkei RPF1 - Set with 95% Tires - 18x9.5 +15 (San Jose, CA)

Enkei RPF1-18x9.5 +15 (full set)




Note: that's just rain and dirt inside the bolt bucket; just forgot to wipe it down.

Specs:

- 18x9.5 +15 in Formula Silver

- Tires: 255/40 Front and 275/40 Rear Sumitomo HTRZ-III with MAYBE 1k miles on them (see below)

Note: see here for mostly objective opinion of these tires (and a few more fitment pics): https://my350z.com/forum/2003-2009-n...l#post10829912

- 5x114.3PCD (will fit MANY other cars - do your own research - but tires are Z-size. Previous owner had them on an Evo IX or STI, can't remember which....both the same fit regardless.)

- Includes RPF1 specific caps (apparently these things are worth their weight in gold for some damm reason. (?) )

$1200 Local Sale (pick up in San Jose, CA)

Note: I bought these with one wheel lightly scuffed; but rest are PRIMO - see pics & descriptions below:

This is the scuffed wheel (from a few feet away):


Close-up of scuffing:



Personally never bothered me as it's hardly noticeable and for how I use 'em, welllllll..... they're gonna get some wear on 'em. Guy I bought them from put only about 5k on them and it shows.

Rest of wheels and tires (pics):











Fitment on car:





PM if interested. Thanks for looking.

Mic

To the front bump.

Forgot to mention, I'd ship if anyone wants to pay the exorbitant shipping cost in excess of 3 bills; hence Local Sale.

Love to keep 'em but I literally cannot fit them in my garage with all the other dang wheels/tires. Neighbors tell me I can't run a tire shop out of either of my garages....

Bump

OK folks, got a bunch of stuff (including another vehicle) that I need to make room for and these are now at the point of cramping my working areas.

Final drop before I put these away. I know I said that before but hey.....

First person with $1200 buys 'em (and at that price, I'm losing big, you're winning bigger!)

If I was local I think I would come purchase these just because they are an awesome deal. Even with the $300 shipping they are a good deal.

Thanks for the bump, Mike, but I'm apparently wasting my time . Seems that hardly anyone wants "real" wheels anymore. First I couldn't even get a nibble on my Volks which were really reasonably priced. Now, these RPF1s in the condition they're in and spot-on set for Z, I get nothing but lookeeloo lowballers on craigslist. Gotta love the people that email the "would you take $900?" on a set originally asking $1495. then reduced to $1395.

But boy oh boy, when I put up a set of Gram Lights COPIES and a set of Rota F'n Grids that were on my son's car, boy did those go fast! Psh.

So screw it. Gonna just keep all five sets and the extra sets of unmounted tires. Made room for them in Garage #2 today.

And yeah, I'm grumpy as I vent my spleen about this, how could you tell?

If they were 10.5s I'd be interested and I'm sure. More people would too

Do the 10.5's fit without arch rolling ?
That's why I'd be more inclined for the 9.5's, sadly in the UK though

Yeah, probably true but I like the fit. These 9.5's fit better as-is on my car than any of my 10.5s (without spacers). The last pic of the orig. post shows the fit.

This was the first set of wheels I've run on this car that had fender interference, necessitating a fender roll... and that, along with spacers were some things I said I'd never do to my car. Hahahahaha.

Problem with 9.5s is you either run +15 or you don't run them at all (next offset is +38). Heard there was a 9.5 +22 but never seen one and the spec sheet doesn't list such a thing.
