I didnt know AME was an enkei brand. They look good. Whats the weight like on those AME's? Size and offset?

 

i saw a set of these on a red Z parked for display at WCN. they look pretty good, i would take the circular model over the tracer tho.

 

I got PKR's check my myspace for pics.

 

19x9's weighed about 21bls and the 19x10's were just a hair over 22lbs according to my scale.

specs are 19x9+15 and 19x10+25 (currently now running 25mm spacers in the rear as pictures below)

 

yeah, thats one of the old school member's here. mr. b

 

I'm not sure what you mean by "convatity" but I've read other people's comments on the rpf1's.

I think it's a matter of preference and taste. To me, the tracer's have the classic bling and Gaudy look that's now so chic and Fauve.

Conversely, I think the rpf1's have a classier and cleaner look. Like something you would expect to see on a race car as opposed to every other suv.

 

concave face is when the all the spokes draw to the center of the wheel. kinda hard to explain with words, so here:
the gold wheel is concave or taper as the silver is just a flat face

 

i love mine enkei RP03-RC. they're 18x9 (f) and 18x10 (r). i know i need a drop. i still love my wheels

 

very nice wheels gismo!

 

cool thnx, i'm rolling on 255/40/18 (f) and 295/35/18 (r). took a very long time to get them too.

 

Tirerack is the most wack wheel retailer in the US. They don't know **** about wheels. I only use them for tires.

 

That's true, I called them yesterday and it was like talking to an elephant.

Nice wheels everyone that showed! Those RPF 1's are definitely nice looking.

But, I think I've made a decision that if I get new wheels it's going to be Wedssport SA70's in 18x9 and 18x10. Of course, I've thought I made a decision about 5 times now so we'll see.

 

Looks awesome on DB!

 

Haha

Yes tirerack sells Enkei's but they do not market towards the people who want the larger wheels. Probably not worth it to stock up on them because they won't turn them over quickly enough.

On another note, Enkei = awesome! Don't let the prices fool you, Enkei is ISO certified and manufatures wheels for several companies in Japan Cough AME and others

 

I just got my RPF1s. Fronts are 9.5x18 +15 and rears are 10.5x18 +15. Tires are 255/40 front and 275/40 rear.

 

How are those tire sizes working?

 

If I drive really hard (for me at least -- I haven't been to the track yet, so it may not really be all that hard), I can get slight rubbing in the rear. I'm probably going to roll (or cut) the fenders, which should eliminate any potential issues.

Please roll and don't cut!

 

I'm rtying to figure out why it "looks like" you have so much tire bulge with 255/275s??

Am thinking about running the same setup since I just bought those size tires.. but dunno..
