The fitment is a special order. The limited edition is basically the sticker color.

Fortune Auto is what we use exclusively on the silver car. We can help get you set up the exact same way.

They also come with red stickers, as well.

No center caps for these. The only ones available are the RPF1 center caps that match the silver finish.

Ride is great, I actually like it better over the 255/40/17 we were running. 265/35/18 is what were running square on it.

Yes, these will fit without coilovers. There is another thread with confirmed fitment for this spec of wheels with Eibach sportline springs. He was running s 245 series tires, though.

EDIT: Here is the post, he is on 235 in front.

It must be 'a thing', because I see it all over in here, but it's a first for me.
Open hubs, open ended lug nuts, come from racing setups. Enkei RPF1 was an affordable, light weight, cast wheel orriginally designed for budget minded racing. Plastic center caps usually fall out once brake temps get high enough on track. Race setups also try to shave weight and components that dont follow function over form. Open ended lugnuts are to allow clearance for extended length race wheel studs. It also makes the lug nut a bit lighter to be hollow the entire length.

Most street cars running these components are just following trends that grew out of emulating race cars. My $.02

NT03+M gunmetal used to only have 17", unless Enkei makes other sizes now. Hope it helps!

BTW, nice rims on nice car, great job!
