In need of some lighter rolling stock. Tirerack has the Enkei RPF1's in the 15"x7" at 41mm offset for a pretty reasonable price. Seen some threads around that people like these wheels. Any rubbing problems with a 205/50/15 falken azenis RT-615, dropped 1.3-1.5 inches (type 1 racing springs)?
thanks for your input!

rpf1's are grossly overpriced IMO. the konig helium is 10.8 lbs and MUCH cheaper.

 

how much are those guys goin for? 10.8 lbs isnt bad at all, my real goal is to have a good balance between weight a price, and get a good look for the car.

 

Please dont get Konigs. Go with the RPF1s. Not really my taste, but they are REAL wheels

 

what do you mean by real? i like the look of the konigs, but i would really rather have the 7" width, and they are only 6.5". the wedssport sa-90's are some similar looking wheels, but again they are more spendy. im kinda thinking that the saying "you get what you pay for" applies here...

 

yeah rock some USED rpf1

itll save you some money and they are the same if you buy them from the right person that treated them well.


and at what 9.5 lbs a wheel DAYM! thats super light.

 

exactly what I mean, The Weds would be a good choice too. Pay a little more for quality wheels. It will be worth it

 

so you are recommending wheels you don't even like? just because they are real? do you have a jdm "fit" badge on your rear hatch too? because that shit is real JdM y0!

 

Im just advising him to not buy cheap parts thats all. It IS a japanese car so why not buy japanese parts for it? And for the record I dont have the default fanboy "JDM" rear hatch badge. I dont have any badges or "jdm" sidemarkers or "jdm" wakaba badges anywhere because I do not FAIL

 

Sorry to go off topic but solbrothers, your sig is messed up man.

 

Who cares if they are real, wheels are wheels.
And imo why wate the money on "real" rims if they are the same as the knock offs just 10x more $$.

Yes, at that drop I think you will get rubbing. You probably need 45 mm offset wheels.

 

you can also get the drag dr21's if you want the rpf1 look witout the price. there 12.6lbs so not as light but close enough for me. 15x7 45mm offset on stock tires=no rub on gf210's. not sure about 205's though. I will find out when the stock tires get low.
