19x9.5 Enkei RPF1s with 285 Kuhmo V710--2 sets FS

EDIT.......EDIT.......EDIT.......EDIT Rims are 18x9.5....major typo listing them as 19's, sorry

I have two full sets of the Enkie RPF1's with the custom ordered offset for the RX8. Both sets currently have V710's mounted to them, as they were used in BSP at Cal Club events here in Fontana, CA.

I'm wondering if there is any interest out there in these wheels/tires.

I'm hoping there is local interest, as I really am not looking forward to arranging shipping.

1450 shipped for each set
-Wheels are in excellent condition, no curbing, scratches, etc.
-One set currently has red pinstriping along the outer lip and silver valve stems SOLD...which is just pinstriping tape from Pep Boys...this can easily be removed.
-Second set have standard blue valve stems, no pinstriping These wheels are still available
-Tires...both sets have over 50 autocross runs. However, the tires continue to be competitive and they surprise me with how well they are wearing.

I have a new set of 285 Kuhmo V710's as well. I would like 1000 for these.SOLD

Pic's of the tires themselves might be useful...

I'd do dibs but I'm not allowing myself to make any further large purchases until Jan 08...

You are on MS suspension correct? I am HIGHLY interest. JUST got a nail in one of my tires. Going out right now to put on some Nitto 555s on the rear stockers (only have stock wheels and I'm not a Nitto fan but this was an emergency and that was the best I can do for now). I'm in VA though. PM me to make a deal with shipping.

Damn, thanks for pointing out the typo...I have been parting out one of my 8's, and also trying to sell some of my autocross stuff for my BSp 8.

The Enkies are 18s...the tire sizes I posted were correct...they are 285/18's....sorry for the MAJOR typo.

Wheels are incredible in BSP with the Kuhmo V710....but make incredbile STU wheels with the appropriate street tire for that class.

Yes, This car does have the MS suspension. The look will be different with street tires as the sidewalls will be higher. I believe the 285 Kuhmos have a 30 sidewall, which is smaller than a street tire with the same. (the tire gap I do have is related to the overall tire/wheel height with the V710).

Team has a set of these wheels with street rubber. Goodwin racing also has a picture of their vehicle with these wheels and street rubber.

I'd committed to Team that I'd pick up his Enkeis but if that falls through I'm interested. Here's what they look like on a light colored car, static conditions, with stock suspension and the 710s:



and compressed:

Hey guys, I have only gauged interest in my own possible sale of parts.

There are no commitments on either side of those discussions.

If you have a strong interest in what's being sold here I strongly recommend that you move on it.

no need to apologize, there were four or five similar situations and it wasn't directed at any one person, just letting you know that if you want these wheels and tires you should move on them

great price/deal here folks, bump

Update on wheels/tires.

One set of wheels has been sold. (the ones with the red pinstriping are gone)
The set of brand new rubber has been sold.

One set of wheels (w/Kuhmo V710's) are still available. (These have the factory blue valve stems)


Turborx8 is correct, offset is +45 (this is a custom order offset from Enkei).

wheels are 349 I believe through Goodwin Racing (plus tax, shipping, mounting, blah, blah, blah). Rims are in perfect condition. I would most likely sell just the wheels at 1250 (this would include shipping costs to you....or 1200 local pickup).Saves you about 200-250 from brand new price...I think this is reasonable for one of, if notTHE BESTwheel for the RX8 street or track

If someone wants to pick up the wheels and tires, 1350....1450 with shipping.
