Love those rims! I'd be perfectly happy with them and no need to spend more esp. since they're hot and reasonably light. Great choice.

Looks great turborx8. Whenever i see the Black Enkei RPF1's on an 8 it always reminds me of a Lotus Exige S. Idk why.

Wow, for those of you who think Dan's (turborx8) car looks pretty good in the pics with those rims/tires, you would be VERY impressed with it in person... I got the chance to see them the other night after he first mounted them and they look AWESOME...

The pictures really don't do them any justice at all...

Beautiful setup! Hopefully i'll be seeing them again Wednesday? lol

It's hard for me to give a review on them because I have been driving my car on winter tires for the past 8 months. Before that I was on the OEM tires/rims.

It takes allot to break them loose on takeoff. This is by far the best handling car I have ever owned to date.

I could not be any happier!!!

turborx8, did you put spacers on your car? for some reason your rims look like they poke out way more than mine do. oh and make sure to keep them tires shined so that the rims look bigger than they are!

18x9.5 R +35 on 275/35/18 (currently 255/35/18) - all on Bridgestone Potenza RFTs

I have been asked the exact same thing already.

I am terrible at taking pics. It's definitely an illusion.
