ahhhh and so thats with -2.0 in the front and 245/35-18?

Good info, good info !


thanks a ton !

I want to run it square with 255/35-18's and -3.0 ! Aint gonna happen. (maybe a 10mm spacer)...but fuq that, not on a track car..for me.

Hmnnn. Might have to do a 18x8 +35 on a 245/35-18 FRONT and 265/35-18 REAR.

Yeah, 18x9.5 is super wide. The tire shop was concerned when mine was lifted up mainly on the front springs. I think an 8" for pure track is probably solid. I'm not doing any crazy camber adjustments to affect my tire wear as a DD. I do love the ride on 9.5" though. I'll post some pictures of before and after of stock vs Tarmac 0's with the Enkei 18x9.5's and a mild drop. (Close some of the small wheel gap since they're 18's)

If you guys do miata.net and the tire tool here on the site, you'll find 245/35/18 to be the optimal tire for 18x9.5 for accurate speedometer readings. I went with that on these same wheels and absolutely love it. 245 is as big as you can go on stock suspension. 255's need coils for sure. I recommend coilovers with these wheels for safe clearance and the ability to do 245's with plenty of clearance for hard cornering.

Tony Angelo Enkei RPF1 18x9.5 +38 - FT-86 SpeedFactory - PICS!!!!

We got the opportunity to get in 40 of the Tony Angelo Limited Edition Enkei RPF1's wheels and could not resist the opportunity to mount a set and show off how great they look.

These are a custom run for us in the FRS/BRZ community with a fitment that is PERFECT for our cars.


Details:
Enkei RPF1
Size: 18x9.5
Offset: +38mm
Hub Bore: 73mm
Bolt Pattern: 5x100
Weight: 17.6lbs <- SUPER LIGHT!!!
Color: Black

We mounted up 265/35/18 Hankook RS3 tires in the love of keeping grip on the road.

More good news is we have verified it fits the AP Racing Sprint kit, which is one of the largest out there as far as caliper thickness goes. This means they will fit most other BBK's as well.

Time to take a look at how SEXY this combo is!

Sunuvabitch....I waited for months and hunted down probably 15 vendors, could never get black rpf1's in 18x9.5. I buy wheels a week ago and this pops up...

Quick question, what makes these limited edition? I've seen flat black Rpf1 18x9.5 before, are these gloss black?
