Enkei RPF1
Hi all,
Just wanted to get some feedback before I pull the trigger:
Enkei Racing Series RPF1 Bright Silver Paint
Front 17x7.5 +48mm
Rear 17x8 +45mm
Tires:
205/50ZR17 Kumho ECSTA SPT Blackwall
225/45ZR17 XL Kumho ECSTA SPT Blackwall
I'm running stock height, and will be for awhile.
Is there anything I'm missing? All thoughts welcome, thanks!

It looks like he's ordering from Tire Rack, who do not have the 17x9 +45 rears. If Tire Rack is selling it, you can probably guarantee it will fit. Those are the recommended tire sizes from Tire Rack, so they will fit. Most likely no rubbing.
You may be able to go wider with the tires, give Tire Rack a call, they are pretty helpful.

It shouldn't: I just pulled the trigger and put Work emotion xt-7 17X7 and 17X8, with ecsta spt 225/45 and 245/40.
It just looks like stock; plus with these offsets, the face of the tire should be pretty flush with the flares.

nice!
how are the spt's treating you? my main concern is wet weather traction and durability. i dont mind sacrificing some dry weather traction.
the spt's look like they'll do, and they're inexpensive too.

The SPT's are treating me pretty nice, thank you; so far so good. They turn to be much grippier than my old 712's, and of course, they should be fine in the rain.
I wish enkei would have made the same design as the emotion xt7 though, as I found out they are a little heavier than I wanted, but with these offsets, the car feels sooo much planted!
By the way, many thanks to Jim for all his helpful insights!
