can anyone confirm whether akebonos fit under 18x9.5+15/10.5+15 RPF1s? will these sit flush or poke out a bit when the car is slightly lowered? anyone got shots showing flushness?

They fit under brembos and stoptechs I hear. So I would say they probably fit over akebonos just fine.

9.5/10.5 +15 is a good flush fitment. Do a search and you'll see plenty of pics, thats the common size for people to order

Gunmetal RPF1s! Soon to add wider rubber and soon to be lower, but this is how she sits now since I had these tires sitting lonely in my garage.

I'm thinking about doing a square setup. If anyone has silver 18x10.5+15 they want to trade for 18x9.5+15 PM me.

On a side note, look what a local tire shop was nice enough to do for me while replacing my tires:

^That's a killer shot.

I've driven that track so many times in video games, but I would love to drive it in person!!

+1 nice pic, seeing the corkscrew in person gives perspective on how many elevation changes that are at that track.

Ouch! Get them to reverse mount your tires next time.

And someone with PF01's post pics on a Z already! I know someone has to have gotten a set by now...

I've been waiting for that too!

FYI - the shop is setting up an appointment to have my wheel "repaired," if they can't fix it they are replacing it

I've run many 17" wheels. The 17x9.5 RPF1s have a funky barrel though, so they don't fit over the Brembos nicely.

Thanks! It is quite fantastic. I'm lucky to live so close (1 hour), and go a few times a year.

Default Enkei GTC-01 Owners

Hey I've done quite a bit of searching but i don't see to many Z's with Enkei GTC-01. I was wondering if you guys can post your pictures as well as the wheel and tire specs's.

Didn't bother to look through the thread, but I would think this is a good start...

Ive looked and nothing. I have only found one guy with a silver z who has them, but the angles weren't too good.
