Bronze RPF1's, best source for a Canadian? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

wparsons · 01-21-2013, 03:46 PM

Anyone know the best place for a Canadian to find some RPF1's in Bronze? I'm looking for 17x8's.

Anyone in Canada (GTA) know of a local place that would have any? Are they still being made, or was it a really short production run?

I see them listed here, but not sure how bad shipping/etc would be to get them here.

Interested in this as well. Looked at a bunch of the vendors on here but a lot of them have crazy high shipping that kills the price point of rims.

It never hurts to get a quote. I might be able to help as we have really low prices on Enkei

I have a distributor that has a warehouse in Canada, if you're interested, PM me the specs for what you're looking for and I'll see if they're available.

I'm also in the GTA and generally tend to go with either:
http://www.tires23.com/index.html
or
http://www.kiplingtire.ca/about.html

I am in no way affiliated with either, but have received good service and prices from both. I would do business with them again.

I checked your site and don't see Enkei listed at all? If it helps, 17x8 5x100 +45ish (anything in the +40 to +45 range works) in bronze.

Specs above, but I'll shoot you a PM too!

@wparsons We also have local vendors....such as JRP in Mississauga they are also on this forum just message @Stav, I've dealt with them before and will be dealing with them again also they sell just about anything and everything.

You could also try NextMod and OptionJDM as other local GTA vendors, there was another one but you'd need to search around the forums....

EDIT: The third vendor I was thinking of was Teknotik

wparsons · 01-22-2013, 01:31 PM

Will they have the Bronze though? I was under the impression they were a limited run and not everyone can get them?

If I go with gold I have a million options.

NYC BRZ · 01-22-2013, 10:57 PM

Ive called the Oakos folks several times and have been told that the bronze RPF1s were a short run and wouldn't be back anytime soon. They are unobtainium right now.

That's correct, the Bronze is a special run and we as vendor's for Enkei can order but they take 90 days to get and min. order is 40 wheels.

I do have that exact wheel you are looking for in stock in Mississauga in black or silver but bronze is not available.

In saying that I do have an order in for 18x9.5 Enkei RPF-1 as an exclusive color option only available through JRP this year. They are due in 90 days and will start a pre-order soon so look for it. There are only 10 cars available. PM for price.

Enkei RPF1 18 X 9.5 +38 5 X 100 CB73 Black (17.4lbs aprox.)

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

No rubbing (on Eibach sportlines) so far

Here is a picture of them in SBC finish but we are only getting the above black finish as they are less maintainence and less expenice than SBC finish as well.

PM for price and availability as I suspect a sell out long before they land.

Thank you

Their site is saying this: "Available to Order, ETA end of February '13", but maybe I'm SOL. I have found one vendor in Waterloo that claims they can get them on a 3-4 week wait, but pricing is about $60/wheel over an average price for gold ones.

Pure Automotive · 01-24-2013, 06:38 PM

wparsons, PM your address, they need it to give me a quote on the gold Enkeis

wparsons · 02-01-2013, 05:56 PM

^^ I've found a ton of places with gold already, but thanks!
