Enkei was a sponsor for McLaren Mercedes.... so no the RPF1 wasn't a replica. It was based off a wheel they made for an F1 car. Enkei has made a number of OEM wheels such as the S2000...

True but the original rpf1 was a replica f1 wheel. That's what I meant

I mean that's what rpf1 stands for

Not knocking rpf1s they're great! Just saying though

If you go to Enkei official site even they say under the rpf1 section : "REPLICA F1"

I thought ppl just refer to Reps as casted wheels and stuff, not wheels that are similar in design as other wheels?

Like a cheaper design and shit...

This sounds abit dumb but just my opinion of reps vs forged and stuff
