Feeler: Enkei RPF1's

You should do different diameters. Some guys may want 16"s, 17"s or 18"s. May help you to get to 10 sets faster. I'm interested in a staggered set. If you get that approved lmk.



Enkei isn't going to sh*t out 10 different sets of custom spec'd wheels at a price most people could afford. If I understand Charles' post correctly, that's the whole point of ordering 10 sets, so Enkei will make a custom set aside from whats typically offered in 4x114.3. It's 10 sets of one custom spec'd wheel, or none at all. Hence, having to agree on a size, offset and color. I'd like a staggered set as well, but as I said in my first post, that's probably not going to happen for the reasons stated above.

Honestly, I think finding 10 guys on this forum alone that want a set will be hard enough. Finding 10 guys who want and set, and can agree on size, color and offset will be impossible. 5 sets would probably be much more realistic.

I wonder if there are even 10 guys still running 4 lug hubs left on the forum /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif





Still running 4lug and I will keep it that way. Im ISOwheels at this time in this pattern.

 

[transparentdsm]

same here, i like the 4 lug and i like the stock rims, so if and when i want to put them on i can, its nice to have an easy and free set of winter rims, which after i finish buying G's ENKEI's i will have sumer and winter rims.

i like these rims too, but id want a 16" so i won't be in this buy at all.

Must be in the 4x114.3 though. Yea 17 9.0 might be to aggressive for some guys. I was thinking 17 8.5 35 offset.



YES! THIS!!

 

[vr4play]

I like the 17x9 +27. I wouldn't think color would matter much. That comes after the fact. Making the wheel is the hard part.

 

[Olson]

17x9" with 27mm offset you guys know this is the optimal fitment for our cars right....

 

[Leon_R]

Do not forget about Colt/Mirage/Summit guys! I would post this on 4g61t.org.

What is the closest size that they currently sell for our cars?

 

[bobdole]

Sorry guys this isn't going to happen. Enkei said they can't make the 4x114.3 bolt pattern. Sucks wanted to get this going.

 

[4Grim]

Can you possibly set a GB for a 5x114 pattern for the guys running 5 lug? I would be interested if the price is right!

 

[KiNgMaRtY]

Another vote for 17x9. Anywhere from a +27 to +35. Also another fact is that the 17x9 looks so much better than the 17x8 or 17x8.5. The design and face is actually a bit different

 

[KiNgMaRtY]

I hadn't clicked on page 2, darn that sucks that they can't make them /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

 

[bobdole]

yea I was disappointed for sure. The 5x114.3 bolt pattern should be no problem. We can do something if there is interest. Has to be 10 sets of on size and offset.

Enkei already offer a 17 9.0 +22 or +35 offset now. They have silver finish in stock. They also do a 17 8.5 +30 offset in silver, black and SBC finish. All in stock at Enkei. These are 5x114.3 bolt pattern.

Two people could do staggered if they went into a set together. Get four wheels, each person use two as rears and then they would have to buy their two other smaller wheels for the front. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/idea.gif

That seems incredibly odd, since i've seen multiple 240's with 4x114.3 pattern rocking RPF1s. Hell, i can find 16x7 or 16x8 in 114.3 all day long on the interwebs.

wow enkie backed out... sucks, if the price is right i would be in on a set

Yea not sure to be honest. Seems odd.

Why no love for 15x8's? Is it a clearing calipers thing?

Anybody know of Konig contact to ask about getting some "Dial In" made in 15x8 4x114.3?
