Wheel Directory: Enkei RPF1 18x9.5 +38 - Page 4 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

swift996 · 12-11-2012, 10:13 AM

Has anyone attempted a staggered set up? Such as a 18x8.5 or 18x9 up front with a 18x9.5 in the rear?

maj75 · 12-11-2012, 10:48 AM

There are no 18x9 RPF1 in our fitment. I have not researched the 17" applications though.

The choices are 18x9.5 or 8 in 5x100. My car has the 9.5 on the back and front but I will be switching to the 8 in front on Friday. Wheels should be here late Thursday.

Will post pics in my thread on the RPF1s

17x9 are available for our vehicles, can't run 255 without coilovers. Won't clear strut perches. I have RPF1 17x9 with 255/40/17 Hankook RS3 and chose Cusco Street Zero A w Pillowball mounts to fit the wheels. Handles like a dream.

Hi guys, here is my setup.

Enkei RPF1 18x9.5 +38 5x100 SBC lowered on Eibach Sportlines.. no coilovers, was surprised it fit.

Front tyres are 235/40/18
Rear tyres are 255/35/18

No rubbing.... could be lower I know but I do 1,000kms a week..

I'm running a 255/35/18 without coilovers on 18x9.5+38.

Camber settings are probably minimal on a spring drop. Wouldn't even say -1 in the front lol.

Looks really good with just springs!

No rubbing at all.

With 18x9.5 RPF1s +38 all around what size tires are recommended if I'd like to retain the ability to rotate? 245's based off this thread looks like it.... right?

Also, how would one go about special ordering a wheel in that size at 5x100?

Your ride looks sicc sicc sicc! Keep it up. :beer:

I want to know if 255's fit up front with 18's aswell! I'll probably go with 245's but if I can fit a bigger tire ill go that route.

Lastly meaty tires just look better. It will be my street setup so for the track ill have 17's and save more weight.

Went 8 seconds faster a lap. They were very heavy Rota's too. I've been involved with some fast time attack teams, all running square setups on RWD cars..

Apparently the extra weight didn't hurt him at all

OmarGC · 01-12-2013, 09:23 PM

Think tire compound would be the main focus over the overall width...

A little bit of both I would assume. But since it'll be my street setup I won't be running sticky r-compounds or anything like that. Ill run something smaller with sticky tires on the track.

Picked them up today. Fitting next week with Cusco coil overs

Tyres are Pirelli P ZERO ROSSO Asimmetrico 245/35/ZR18
