why does it have two valve stem openings? lol
|
probably the same reason why Koseis have 2 valves.
one standard and one nitrogen |
Some race teams run dual valves for speed and something else..but basically it helps crews do their jobs faster
|
Great looking addition. Love the tech, price, size, offsets and weights. Nice find!
http://www.daialloys.com/catalogues.php, the calendars aren't bad either http://www.daialloys.com/models.php (NSFW) ;) |
gtf2s look pretty similar to enkei gtc01rr. no eighteen inch on the gtf1s?
|
SO these guys are creating a low pressure zone in the cast to elongate the alloy without adding air bubbles? I'm not understanding the science behind their new process. Wouldn't this cause the wheel to become more brittle under impact?

One valve: air hose One valve: air pressure gauge |

these wheels are gorgeous though
|
2 valve stems also helps in properly purging all air from the tires when filling with nitrogen I've herd.. put nitrogen in on top, and open up the bottom to release the air.
|
Air is 70% Nitrogen, so you're effectively replacing air with air!
If anything, I could see it used to standardize air pressure across tires on the same side of the vehicle. Connect an air hose between a nipple on the front and rear, then use the other to add or remove air. Still, gimmicky. |
Either way if they make the GTF1 in a Gunmetal color sign me up for a set of 17x9! Hope these fit.

17x9 +35 weight 16.5 lbs :bow:, I would love to get some for my 07 WRX
I wonder how concave the 17x9 are? I cannot find any pics. |
we just ordered a set so we'll post pics when we get them.

Can you please weight them when you get them? also, where did you buy them from? |
yeah we will weight them and we bought them locally in a speed shop, they are easy to get around here since the builder is local.
|
Nice can't wait to see result.

Pics would be very appreciated when mounted. :thanks: |
The GTF1 look similar to the Konig Oversteer . Really nice!
|
bump...
I am trying to decide between this wheels or the rota titans. |

looks like the konig torch |

pics of them on an 86??
|
I've been eyeballing these forever. Didn't want the news to get out because these will turn into the new Enkei Rpf1.
I want the 17x9 +35. 17lbs and at under $200 a wheel, that's really hard to beat! |
Ok which shop in Los Angeles is going to distribute these first? Anybody want my money?
|
Nice wheels! Can anyone confirm if the details are silver or white?

If someone does... POST THEM HERE!!! |
well i said i would post pics so here they are, not on the car though and it will take a while before i do, race car build in progress, i am in a wiring nightmare right now.
For those wondering, the inside is silver, it is just machined in fact but under strong light it does kind of look like white. That would be a good place to paint though to give the same accent as your car's color... guess what we will do ;) anyway, we used to run Enkei RPF1 on our race car but the bolt pattern isn't the same so we can't reuse them, we needed new wheels and decided to try something else. So here is a little comparo with the RPF1. First, they are both the same spec, just different bolt pattern, 17x9 Et +35 The RPF1 weight 15,6 lbs the GPF1 weight 16,8 lbs so this is a 1,2lbs advantage for the Enkei. Price, well the GPF1 is litterally half price. The finish is good, they are made in China but they still look good. They are a tiny bit wider. The lip on the outside is thicker and seems more solid. The RPF1 are weak and break easily with such a low weight, let's hope the GPF1 are more solid. GPF1 also have dual tire valves, this will help in the pit taking quick pressure. I wish they would offer them in different color though like silver at least. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...psb2463cd2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...ps785c70eb.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...ps36002754.jpg |
Thanks puma!
Weight list updated... |
Too bad the hub bore isn't correct. Hub center rings are needed from Amazon, which are cheap.

Thanks in advance. |

Plastic ones will crack and break easier so I went with metal. |
