I'm surprised no one here has any Enkei RP03 in 18's.. that are on a dropped 8. The only 18's I've seen is all stock height. Plus The only RP03's I've seen wide is Don and Endless. When I mean wide..I mean sticking out of the fender almost..Nice and flush. :P (I'm bringing back a dead thread, I know..but I want to see pics of 18's on a dropped 8. )

 

my GF-1's (which i'm wanting to trade, FYI)

 

 

Anyone have the Black Enkei Performance ls-5's on their 8? Particularly a VR 8? I really want these for my next 8 but not sure how they look. Either that or someone feel like a photoshop?

 

can i play too?

 

Sure but you gotta follow the rules. Style and Wheel dimensions pls...

RSMs?

<-- Patiently waiting on RPF1s...

 

rp03's 17x7+45

 

man, those really look like the audi rs4 reps i used to have on my vw!!

 

SCO5 SBC look real nice tho. it should be brighter than the RS4 one.

I believe u havent seen the MS version II wheels, they look like the audi R8 wheels. I would've gotten them if they offer18x8.5 +35 or +38.

 

Enkie RP-F1 18x9.5 +45 with Cooper XS2 275/35/18. Yum. Thanks Rishie @ RnD.com!

 

I've been wondering do the RPF1's in 18x9.5 + 45 flush? I haven't seen any good side/rear pictures yet to show this

 

no... they are sunken in when the car is low.

 

What offset would make them flush? +38?

 

Here you go sir -

 

Eh, I'm picky. I still wouldn't consider that flush.

 

18x10 +38 sits pretty good, EVOX spec sits better

 

What about 18x9.5 +38?

 

just imagine everyone's rpf1's here, but 7mm out more. You could fit them without rolling fenders and won't rub unless you were low and had a 275 or wider tire.

 

Neither would I; You asked for a picture, however, therefore I posted one

 

For reference, my 9.5 +45 275 rt615's have about half (or less than) a finger width's gap from the unrolled fender.

 

What dimensions are your tires and are you lowered?

Here's my 275/35/18 Coopers on my 18x9.5 +45 RPF1s. You can see the tires are a little wide on the fronts but the wheels are flush while the tires are flush on the rear but not the wheels. Absolutely no rubbing on the front now but I'm 50/50 on whether or not I'll be able to drop them even on htechs w/o getting rubbing. But if you want flush on the fronts & backs you have to go staggard. The 9.5s I have would probably be better paired with 255 or 265s to lower them but then there'd be more of a gap in the rears. Peter meet Paul.

 

fronts look flush, but from the pics rear looks sunken

 

I have pretty much no gap between tire and fender, though that picture doesn't really make it look like it. Looks like I'm running more camber than you which is why yours seems more flush. Theoretically at a high enough ride you could *make* any wheel flush with positive camber

 

Alignment is stock. Actually getting it aligned next week and will probably add negative camber to the front. Not a lot (-1 to -1.2 if it can hit either setting) but enough to help on track/autox while still able to use it as a DD.

Second picture is of the fronts fwiw.

 

Does anybody have 19inch RPF1? I have gone through this thread, and in fact most of the forum trying to find a picture of them on an 8....

Anybody?
