I just have to say that those wheels look great and the fit is fantastic. (Flashbacks from the post 8 months ago--your CE28's.)

just in case someone is confused, the enkei rpf1 doesnt come in 18x10.5 +0, its actually a 18x10.5 +15 with a 15mm spacer used to give an affective 0 offset.

just clarifying for you guys who mentioned it like that just anycase someone else comes in here and gets upset when they can't find the wheels available like that.

Makes me wonder how much longer the RPF1 has left in its life-cycle, its been out for quite a while now.

something looks weird with that sedan, like it needs more tire or something.

"Squeaky350 It kind of looks like frost to me?"

^^^Exactly, the pics were taken at 8am the other day when it was only 25 degrees out, just frost, no acid bombs.

"gotime242 something looks weird with that sedan, like it needs more tire or something."

It does, right now it's on 245/40 all-around. This was more of a test fit as i'm one of the few/first sedans to use 9.5" in the front. I basically played it safe for fitment purposes. Plus i had these tires with basically 90% tread, why not use them up. My next set of tires will prolly be 255/40 front and 275/40 rear. Until then i'm just gonnna put some spacers on and call it a day.
