Enkei RS+M PICs
I have had the rims for a few months now, just haven't gotten around to posting my pics on Google.. Here is a link.
http://picasaweb.google.com/KLangman Specs: Enkei RS+M 18x7.5 Offset 48 (~4.5 lbs lighter according to my scale :rock: ) Sorry about the rotor rust.. I should have taken the car out for a quick spin to rub off the rust after washing the car. One thing is clear, I need to paint the calibers and the rotors. |
a drop would be nice too :)
|
So they produce a 18x8.5 +35 offset that would be more ideal for the RX8, just a FYI. You can run 245/40/18's on the 8.5 +35's.
Looks nice tho. Rishie |
A small drop might be my next project. Haven't decided.
I had considered the 18x8.5 +35 but they were heavier and when I set out looking for new wheels I decided my priority was to shave off some pounds. I think losing 18 lbs of rotating mass has made a noticeable improvement in steering response, but it didn't seem to effect the pickup at all. This surprised me a bit.. I had expected an improvement in pickup but didn't expect anything on the steering response side. |
what's your tire size? since you're probably not gaining more traction and grip, there shouldn't be much difference in pick up.
|
The RS+M isn't amongst their lightest wheels. Did you just use the same stock tires also?

Yep, stock rubber size.
True, the RS+M is not the lightest but it is quite light. It's Enkei's 2nd lightest, only 0.8 lbs heavier then the RPF1 and personally I don't like the look of the RPF1. I hear some people have gone to 17" rims to save weight, but I didn't want to go that far. |
