definately Work. Im so sick of seeing rpf1's on every tuner car.

RPF1's if you want to have a much lighter wheel and save money. Just like the enkeis the works are on everything too.

You sir have excellent taste. These are the two rims that I have narrowed down my rim selection to as well, but I may go with gunmetal/bronze or gold for my Whiteout FRS. I do think the Work rims look a little better (regardless of popularity and how unique you may be), but the Enkei's are a little more functional in that they're lighter. On Gran Turismo 5, which I've been playing since I've been anxiously awaiting my FRS, I've modded my White FRS to have bronze TE37s and it looks sick! If you are going 18" I take it you are going more for the look and not as much the function (track days etc.), then the Work rims are more aligned with your goals (although they'd cost you some more $$).

Rpf1

Either one.. With the Works you will be able to run a wider wheel/tire if you like that. Think you will loose some detail in the wheels if you go black on black.

You can get rpf1's in 18x9.5 +38 5x100 so I don't think going wide is an issue.

I would get the rpf1 if you plan on track days and stuff.. If strictly streets and looks then the works.. I think the rpf1 is a little played out.. But from what I see its one of the lightest and cheapest wheels on the market so I understand why..

I've seen a couple on here and other forums, but they all have been special order. Enkei doesn't list them on their website.

You're right but they're available if he wants them even if its thru a group buy. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=24525

Work. I do not like the huge lip of the RPF1's.

Subynewbie 01-05-2013 03:20 PM

I love my Work wheels. I got the matte bronze on my SWP and while I wasn't sure ahead of time, I think they turned out great.

JSUB 01-05-2013 09:05 PM

Work.
They look like my Rota Torque
