Wheel Directory: Enkei RS05RR 18x8.5 +42/18x9.5 +43



Enkei RS05RR Silver 18x8.5 +42 front and 18x9.5 +43 rear on Yokohama AD08R 225/40/18 and 235/40/18. + Eibach Pro-kit lower springs that drop 1 inch all around.
No rubbering or any problems at all.
The ride is a little bit firmer than before, which is very nice !!!.
The image quality isn't that good since I used my iPhone4s to take all the pics.
For much more better image quality check out my Member Journals.

I love it but...damn, it doesn't look as great as the deep concave ones.

Have fun!

Awesome! She looks great!! I plan on doing the same thing this summer. Except 8.5 +43 in gunmetal grey all the way around. I still want to be able to rotate my tires. Also, adding Eibach Prokit.

After installing Eibach pro-kit for a few days, the gap between the tyres and the fenders is now diminished to around 1 inch left. I can put two of my fingers vertically to fit the gap.
I really want to lower the car even more, but I gotta save up to get a good set of coilovers. So the lower spring from Eibach did an excellent here for the time being.

Thanks ^^. Well, there are three types of concavity for this set of wheels.
The wider you go the more concave you get. my front wheels are categorized as Type F which means that the level of concavity is pretty low.

If the road, where you live is smooth and doesn't have a lot of potholes, I would recommend you go to for the Eibach sportline. Even I live in Thailand, where the road is pretty rough and even surfaces. I still want to drop the car around 1.5 inch. 1 inch of drop is not enough for me.

I would but 1" is plenty for me as this is my only car and needs to be a DD for a few years. The sportline's will take away too much ride comfort for me. Can't afford to track or Autox the car at this point so ride comfort is more important right now. Thanks for the suggestion though and enjoy those wheels! They look badass!

Well, the GV&GR guys in Thailand tend to go for RE30, TE37, and Prodrive instead.

I will be uploading more pics tomorrow, since I decided to put the center caps on these rims. Here are the pics of the rims without the Enkei center caps.

I wish they were more concave. Looks very flat like Enkei NT03+M.

Unfortunately it's tough with this offset on 5x100. Need a more aggressive offset and/or 5x114.3 bolt pattern. I agree, I like the concavity of these wheels.
