A set of Enkei RPF1s with accompanying Nitto 555s! Ok, it's not as glamorous as what other SW forum members are doing, but I'm working my way up. The foreground tires are the old Michelin Pilot All Season tires - won't be doing that ever again. - Joel

 

I have the same tires. I like them, but they do not like water and God help you if you see any snow or associated conditions!!! Wait til spring summer though!!!! 53 more days to spring!!!!

Awesome! Nice choice; I can't wait to see them in person.

 

Sweet & congrats!!!

 

Some of those Enkeis have seen some hardcore T2 racing action! They sure look clean. Not only do they look great w/LeMans Sunset, they're lightweight and WIDE. How do they fill out those Z fenders, Joel? I bet it really changes the stance and overall look of the car.

 

Nice wheels. I like em.

 

Nice I love the RP-F1 as David said they are a great race wheel too. RealTime Racing actually uses bone stock Enkei RP-F1s on their touring cars.

 

love the wheels. hate the tires. ive read nothing but horrible problems with nitto's in the rain. just becareful!

 

Thanks for the feedback guys.

I debated over the wheel and tire combo for quite some time now. I really like the RPF1 style, and Enkei's roll-form production technique makes for a very light-weight and strong wheel. All the hype surrounding the Nittos made we want to give them a try. I have a truck for winter driving, so I don't anticipate that I'll have to worry about driving the Nittos in the snow - rain maybe.

Dkmura, they flush out with the fenders perfectly! Lowering the car with a new spring kit will look even better.

I was only able to drive it for for a few miles last night (first time I've driven the Z in almost 2 months). It was too cold to give the tires a true test. Steering input is noticeably different too, but it's hard to describe without more seat time.

Hey that's cool! I forgot that they used the RPF1s... According to the Enkei website, the McLaren F1 cars use then too.

 

what sizes did you get?

 

+1 on the wheels I love em and bought some in SBC waiting for tires and mounting. Its killing me.

 

The McLaren cars use their Formula wheel, they are pretty different. But they are indeed Enkeis.
