Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 (edited) The Enkei RPF1's have been a long time favourite of mine and JR have now done a replica wheel at a fraction of the price and whats more they now offer them in a decent 350z fitment 18x9.5/10.5 ET15 approx £650 a set depending on choice See below https://www.tarmacsportz.co.uk/wheels.html?wheel_model=2803 Edited February 2, 2017 by Tarmac@TarmacSportz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sargara Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Amazing. Just for comparison how much are a set of Enkei in the same fitment to get an idea on the savings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobPhoboS Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 My favourite style wheels for the Z, so I shall get a set in due course. I just wondered if they'll release a square stance set of these ? And a darker colour ? The set I want comes up to....£1,702.80 + tyres (ffs) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aashenfox Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 These have brake clearance issues on many cars. I wouldn't expect them to at this size on a zed even with Brembos, but it might be worth allaying any fears by confirming. Cheers, I'll be considering a set at this price!

People are running 9.5/10.5 et15 on the Enkei without issue so I can't see these being a problem, worst case scenario would be the need for a 5mm shim spacer which I can include FOC for the first buyer in case needed but very much doubt it 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobPhoboS Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Just for planning sake now, would 9.5" be ok without having to roll arches ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm 99% sure they won't need spacers but as far as I know they haven't yet been done on a 350 so I can not 100% guarantee it, like I say I can send a 5mm shim spacer FOC if required, the shim spacer won't affect the ride so I wouldn't be put off by it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aashenfox Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 (edited) In 'proper' Zed fitment (i.e. 9.5/10.5+25 or lower) you definitely won't need spacers. You can see how much clearance there is in the first photo in the OP (it;s a LOT!). But if you go down to 9" or narrower, or higher than 30 offset, you may need to watch out with this wheel. The stated 9.5/10.5+15 will have fully 20mm caliper clearance. Edited February 22, 2017 by Aashenfox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice theory but it isn't always the case, Cosmis XT206 18x9.5 ET10 don't clear Brembo's, we found that out the hard way with Grundy's 350z Until the wheel has been tested on a car I never 100% guarantee, but like I say i'm 99% sure this one will fit no problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aashenfox Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 (edited) I never said that what applies to one wheel applies to all! Spacers won't be needed for this wheel at 9.5/10.5+15, even with the deepest face, I'm sure of it, based on experience and a significant amount of research over the years with the genuine Enkeis.
