Enkei RPF01 help? Post pics please!

So I've scoured the forum and have seen a few rpf1 on the twins but want to know if anyone is running 18x8 FRONT and 18x9.5 rear in the SBC finish (but please post pics of other finishes) if you have a raven or asphalt twin please post! Also, if you're on springs with a 1" drop please post.

I'm looking for: no rubbing, close to flush, no spacers, on springs with a 1" drop and either natural camber or just slight negative camber.

Please post pics!

There is a whole guide to how to calculate flush offsets for different width wheels. After that you can look up available offsets on Enkei's website. As for pictures you can keep searching or you might get lucky and someone will post some here.

Yeah I've seen the fitment calculator and all that but it's still a little confusing to be honest. I've also scoured the wheel gallery and searching hasn't proved to be much help unfortunately.

Wanted to do staggered fitment maybe and I don't think the SBC comes in 8.5 or 9 in our 5x100 bolt pattern.

I may just do a square 17x9 setup I'm debating between that and a staggered setups.

Also the 18x8 in front would prevent any rubbing issues that may happen on just springs. But I'd prefer 8.5

Nice what are you dropped on springs or coilovers? Fitment looks great!

You may as well get the flat faced rather than getting the bulge.

17x9 +35 235/40/17 (My tyre choice actually runs really wide compare to most of the same tyre spec) with -1 camber will not give you any issues.

There's a flat faced choice? I thought the spokes all had a little bit of a bulge in them.

I like this setup a lot though. What are you dropped on?

If you go with the 9-inch width, the spokes on this wheel look more flat and less bulge. I haven't seen the SBC in an 8-inch width...so either isn't available or would be a special order anyway.

Yeah I definitely think it's special order and I have no idea how to go about doing that tbh. :/

Not really what you're asking but somewhat a similar setup to what you're asking.
17x8F 245/40
17x9R 255/40
+35 all around offset





Hope this helps.
