Wheel Directory: Enkei RSF5 18x8.0 +45

Looking for pics of mounted Enkei RSF5 on a BRZ/FRS. Real life pics, not from TireRack. Thanks!

Update: Found a decent side shot of the wheels.

Thank you so much!!! Those wheels on a Red car makes it look like a Ferrari!
Do you think Hyper Silver would go well with a SWP BRZ? Or would Black be a better option for SWP?

[Clipdat]

I would go silver for sure!

Thanks! After all the response I've gotten and research I've done I guess my initial gut feeling of getting black wheels has now changed.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but from my understanding Hyper Silver is more Satin looking, while Silver Machine is more reflective?

Machined is shinier because well, it's been machined. I would go with the hyper silver RSF5, but the M52 is also a really good looking wheel. I went with the Kojins and they look great, can't go wrong really with Enkei.

Ah, I was eyeing those Kojins as well. Those are some nice wheels as well.
I love the style of the RSF5's, but I really prefer the Hyper Black finish of the M52's.

Why can't they just have the RSF5's in Hyper Black!?!?!

After looking through a ton of pictures I'm starting to lean towards black finish again...

I feel like black wheels only look terrible when there are too many spokes close together and you can't see past the wheel.
The RSF5 have a pretty open spoke design like in some of these pictures, so you should at least be able to clearly see the rotors, which makes a big difference on appearance.

Lastly, I'm not very convinced silver goes well with pearl white. Since the pearl white is a little off-white in color, sometimes silver looks a little weird. Especially in the last picture!

that last picture of the car looks like a kit car for some reason.

The wheel looks very handsome, I didn't think 5-spoke will look good in this car, this has changed my mine. By the way, the headlight looks so cool, what brand is that? where did you buy it?

[Scaldy]

sweet Jesus that looks good. Those curves just melt around that 5 spoke. mmm...melty

[ericmpena]

Yeah, these wheels looks amazing on that Red FR-S. I'm pretty much set on this wheel. Just gotta decide Hyper Silver or Black for a white BRZ. Though choice.

I've been looking for a very long time for 5 spoke (both split and mono spoke for my Raven FRS). That last white Ferrari pick pretty much seals it for me. on a white car with some pearl, go black.
