It's not a sexy rim, in my opinion, but it's very clean and I like that.

SpeedmasterBRZ · 10-23-2012, 02:54 PM

Nice look. I believe that the 18x9.5 will have a more concave face.

Look at the size chart. The Wide 5x100 sizes have terrible offsets.

You know how a concave face is achieved .. right?

CBR600RR · 10-23-2012, 04:01 PM

^ya i guess I just didnt think about it that way.

empower-auto · 10-23-2012, 04:27 PM

18x9.5 + 45 will be semi-concave I think ... however I don't know how well that will fit.

Be fine on the back but would have to run the 8.5 +45 with a 10mm spacer up front in my opinion and i don't want to run spacers. I'm sure we could get a run made in 5x100 with decent offsets.

Rota RT5 is similar but spoke doesn't go all the way out...

Another good option from Enkei. Tuning Wheels series is real solid w/ these and Fujin. They look freak'n great in the Mat Black.

A little simple math might change your mind.
If the wheel is a 9" wide wheel
The center line is 4.5 agreed?

If +45mm divided by 25.4 = 1.77 that would be the offset from centerline right?

4.5 + 1.77= 6.27 so the mounting pad would be 6.27 from the rear lip?

That leaves approximately a 2.78 concave which will mostly be transmitted in that design from the spoke to the lug holes. Not great but Probably the same as a Rota Grid?

Damn enkei 5x100 sizings.

Foobar · 01-02-2013, 08:35 PM
