How much do they weigh? I like the 2 piece design. I have the RP03 one piece in silver which is almost a perfect match for Diamond Graphite on the G's. I really need to get a digital camera to take some more pictures now that I have the car lowered.

For comparison . . .

i like those RP03 Type RC. I was looking into the one piece wheels before, but i'm glad i didn't buy them because these look better to me. Hope they make them in bronze too.

Will discounttiredirect.com or anyone else carry these and when will they be available?

I came very close to getting the RPF-1's in 19" for my G, but I've ALWAYS wanted the winnings, so I had to go for them... but I do know that I have to get Nismo side skirts now - they look sweet!

Hmmm...not fabulous, but not too bad. Depends on the price, of course.

They seem a little heavier by around 2 pounds per wheel
here is what was advertized for the RP03 Silver:
18x9 +22 is 20.?? pounds
18x10 +22 is 21.6 pounds
19x9 +18 is 22.5 pounds
19x10 +22 is 23.1 pounds

the rp03 comes in silver and sbc (super black coating?) the prices for both are about $600 for the 18's and about $700 for the 19's. the super black coating is a lil' bit more.

Agree. I'm taking my time looking for a good 18" wheel. I saw some hints of a G-Games wheel a couple of weeks ago, but no follow ups. I'm sure it'll surface again.

and are they true 2 piece?[/QUOTE]

True 2 piece design but their brochure says they use 'pierce bolts'. Not sure what they are or if they can be removed at all?

The wheels are a little heavier but I'm going to hazard a guess the weight is for added strength. Enkei's high end stuff is top quality too.
