Didn't see anyone post this in here. Looks like it just popped up in the last couple weeks. No weight yet.

Did you notice the recommended tire size is still 215/45/17? That's pretty ridiculous. (edit: That was for the 17x9 as well)

Well, it's also missing weights and manufacturing process so I would assume more information is coming. Tire track is well aware of what the wheels are used for.

Am I the only one that noticed the bolt pattern?

Why is this thread even here?

vroom4 · 01-02-2015, 12:31 PM

5-100 is our bolt pattern?

last time i checked.

In the description it says 5x100, but that is clearly not a 5x100 bolt pattern.

Description also recommends a 215 on a 9" tire. Sooo, the description is obviously wrong.

It's a generic picture....like all of tire racks stff

Looks like it will be a nice option. The TRMotorsport wheels are usually light and strong - Enkei made using the same MAT process as the other light/strong Enkeis (RPF1 etc), and really good prices. I ran a set of 18x9.5 TRM on my STI and they were about 18.x lbs.

BRZZZZZZZZZZ · 01-02-2015, 01:20 PM

In for weight and offsets!

tigermack · 01-02-2015, 02:14 PM

The picture looks like a 15", interested in what the weight will be.

Tire rack usually does this, first they post up the new item and then gradually update the info and pictures until it start shipping. Happens all the time for the new inventory, and yea tire info will be way off as well.

This is promising. The 17x7 version is lighter than RPF1s in the same size (14.45lbs vs 14.8lbs respectively). And when I was looking at these for my GFs MR2 spyder the 15x7 was still under 12 lbs making it one of the lighter ones available (but 2 lbs heavier than RPF1 in that size).
