Here you can discuss everything that helps make a car start ,stop and corner to the best of it's abilities and makes it look better at the same time. Post your favorite wheels and discuss about the latest products from the wheel companies

I guess I'm going to start with some of the latest products from a few famous companies:

Enkei: new wheel called the RS+M. Prices for 18's are around $412 retail each.

5zigen: ProRacer GN+

Gialla: Vulcano. Around $500 a wheel

ADVAN: RGII

Volk: Volk Forged Mag Spoke . Should have a weight similar to TE37. Looks like it'll be released in April.

ADVAN: RS . Finishes will be in gunmetal, gold, silver, chrome. Sizes 17 ~ 19 inch.

So lets post!

BTW, monster7, can you give some info on enkei RPF1 ?

 

Pfffssshhh!

Wow, those 5Zigen ProRacer GNs look yummy! 👍

I personally prefer, 3 piece wheels. I like rivets.

- Enkei RPF1 -

Sizes: 15-16-17-18

Colors: Silver-Gold-White

Sizes and colors available depend on what country you purchase the wheels from.​

I'm putting a 17x9 +35 offset on the front, and a 17x9.5 +38 in the rear. For tires I'll be using a 235/40 Front and 275/40 Rear.

If anyone is looking to put this on an FC RX-7, you will need coilovers, otherwise your wheel/tire will hit the factory springs.

Weight:

17x9.0 - 15.9lbs
17x9.5 - 16.5lbs

Price:

Under $300 per wheel - Price does not include the cost of tires

I have a set of Enkei CDR-9's and RSF-2's. In the winter I use the stockers.

Thanks for the info, monster7 👍
I quite like those RPF1's... I wonder how they would look on my car in 18x8.5 and in gold or custom painted black... I guess I'll search for the high res pic of them to photoshop them on my car Maybe someone have a good pic?
