Wheel Directory: Enkei RPF1 17x8.0 +45



Just got finished installing my new wheels and tires. IMO they look kinda small but i dont really care since these are my track wheels. I do plan on purchasing a set of 18's for show later down the road. BTW I got the wheels from OAKOS automotive and I ordered a set of lug nuts and centric rings from tire rack. I need orange or black lugs asap ,hate the chrome ones.

Specs:

Black Enkei RPF1'S 17x8 + 45 offset
Hankook RS3'S 245/40/17


















No clearance issues

Those do look pretty spectacular.

Aftermarket wheels just point more directly to the fact that these cars aesthetically need to be dropped.

Damn. RPF1 are best in black imo. I think if you get black lug nuts it will be even sexier.

Looks really good. Do you have any photos from the front to see how flush the wheels sit with the fender?
