Okay so I tried researching but I couldn't find what I was looking for. So those that are running Enkei Rpf1 with brembos, what are your specs? If you guys have pictures might as well post them too
Obviously I don't believe you searched, it's not like facebook here, you can easily find many years worth of RPF1's. Then you may also notice the Motorsports section where plenty of cars also run RPF1

New Z owner here... Just got an Interlagos Fire Roadster and looking to get some Enkei TSP6 wheels in gunmetal. Here are the specs I'm trying to get:

Front: 18x8.5 25mm Offset
Rear: 18x9.5 15mm Offset






I plan on using the stock tires:

Front:
Size: 18x8.0
Offset: +30mm
Tire: 225/45/18

Rear:
Size: 18x8.5
Offset: +33mm
Tire: 245/45/18

I'm not a pro when it comes to wheels and tires - will these specs work with the stock tires? how are the offsets? Opinions/comments/recommendations are welcome.

Appreciate the help!


Enkei TSP6

^^ The 245/45-18" tires are out of specification on a 9.5" wheel and will be slightly stretched on the rear. That stretching will probably make the wheel gap look larger. Go with a 275mm tire when your rear tires wear out.

Thanks - I figured. I do plan to get new tires before the winter so I'll keep that in mind. Any input on the offsets?

Personal preference, I prefer 10.5 +15 square setup but 9.5 +15 works.

Looking good Superlim. Almost ready to pull the trigger on 18s, car came with square Konig 8.5 X17 at plus 40. Looks awful, mb I'll follow you and get spacers till the new Bridgestones are done.

i did Arp Studs and Slip on spacers from z1... but i do track it so i didnt want any chances with bolt on spacers. but yeah you need to change those wheels.. lol. Once i get my coils in I might try 285s... not a problem in the back but the front will be iffy. benefit to 17s... the rpf1's only weigh 15.5 lbs
