356 Wheels TFS3 (RPF1 copy made by Rota)
 
4 Attachment(s)
So I'm getting a bit messed around by a company here in the UK trying to get hold of some enkei RPF1s in 17x9 and as my tyres were getting dangerously low I made a snap decision on some copies. They're 18x8.5 et44 and I'm running eagle f1 supersports in 235/40. Currently dropped on tein coilovers about 1" and no issues with rubbing so far. I'll probably run a rear spacer, not sure if 10mm or 15mm would be better..?

I've run rotas before and I've had a pretty good time with them. Had my heart set on the enkeis so might still wait for them. I was going to spray them this colour anyway so at least that saves me a job and they are half the price which is very good value in my opinion.

Rotas are fine, as far as rep companies go. Most people can't afford to run full authentic wheels.
Don't get into the spacer game if you can avoid it. If you do, go for a bolt-on spacer. Otherwise you need extended studs

neat, I had no idea there were RPF1 reps out there. One of my favorite wheels.

Mine too, always loved them but they wouldn't have worked as well on my previous cars. Pretty happy with these but still not sure whether to cancel the enkeis or not. This is the only size these come in and I had my heart set on 17x9

Neither did I considering they already are one of the cheapest wheels out there.
