No. I'm going to get them just yet. I'm going to get the blue and black Sport Max. Then I'll get the F1's

I have RPF1's, if you want center caps you need to tell them when you order or they will be sold separatly. Mine are 18.5 with 245/18 on all for corners. They have a 35 offset that puts them within a 1/4 inch of the rear wheel wells. If I went any wider I would of had to roll the fender. fyi

Those are not the special ones made for our application. The 9.5"x18 Enkei's with 45 offset allow up to 275 or so width, and at least w/275 require no rolling. BTW how does the 245 work? Isn't it stretched too much for the wheel width? Most tires spec only up to 9" for a 245.

My wheels are 8.5 not 9.5 so 245 is fine.

1) yes - unless someone's as-yet-avail flash unit allows the change in the ECU where the wheel diameter is. Hint, hint.

2) I think they do, but it's your opinion that counts. What do you think?



3) To me they look fine, but unfortunately I don't have any from the back. Here's one from the front though...


hey spin, what enkei's are those ur running? damn they look sexy!
