They are a great option. I'm glad that they didn't crack and at the time, one RPF1 in 17x8 +35 was about $225/each.
We can get forum members a set of Speedwell Fully Forged RS-R wheels in 18x9.5 +40 for less than a set of Enkei RPF1's in 18x9.5. Speedwell also offers a LIFETIME structural warranty on each set. OP asked looking for durability and affordable pricing, and these are a good option for both.

17" flow formed wheel vs another rock on Angeles Crest highway, lol. This 17x9 TC105N wheel was on our Asphalt shop FRS:
