Default Anyone got RPF01's?

I think I posted about this a year ago or so, but I can't seem to find this thread.

I like the idea of staying with 18's and for the price, you really can't beat these wheels. So I ask, does anyone have these on their 370 yet? Would one need a spacer to make these sit flush (I currently have 20mm all around, so I am hoping I can still use those. Replacement studs really suck ).

I'd really like to get something other than rotas!

Thanks!

Not many people run 18s, other than guys that track their cars often. I don't track mine much so I run 19s.

What width and offset are you looking to use? I think the MOST aggressive RPF01s that you can get are 18x10.5 +15 which is a good fit. With a 20mm spacer on that and it would sit flush, depending on your drop.

The fronts, 18x9.5 +15 would also fit and look great with front rolled fenders. I run 9.5 +15 and 10.5 + 0 in a 19 as a reference.

The best fitting front option that will clear the brakes is the 9.5 +15, which will rub slightly with a good tire.

Great wheels. I almost went with them for the price but I couldn't settle with 18's even though they offered the right widths and the 19's don't. So I got my bad a$$ AME TM O2's. That have both worlds being there based on the RPF01's using the Enkei technology. Check them out in my journal. Not sure you can't get them anymore though. My offsets are +22 all around but running 10mm spacer in rear. Should of done a 15.

Speed Element has the Enkei's in matte black. They are hot.
