Wheel Size Suggestion Help - Enkei RPF1

Wow looks sexy...have you test fit them? If you don't mind how much did they set you back? Did you buy any other suspension goodies other than coilovers?

I've been way to busy to do a test fit because of school and work. I'm going to do some work on my car next week when finals are over so I decided to just wait until then to test fit the wheels. Temperature went from 80s to 20s and 30s in the matter of a day so I don't feel like there's a rush to buy brand new summer tires and get these mounted just yet either.

I paid $800 for them new with a hookup. Enkei is based here. Powdercoating set me back $275 for all four.

Yes, my suspension is completely built other than front and rear LCAs and subframe bushings. SPL. Just installed a rebuilt rack a couple weeks ago also. Car feels great.

The time has come... to test fit!

Flush!

Clears Z brakes!

Barely, barely clears the coilover in the front. Very scary. No issue in the rear.

Again these are 17x9 +22. Tires are coming very soon. Track day on the 16th of January to attend.

Ordered gold "Blox" lugnuts this week. They looked pretty quality.

Cool. Let us know how it feels from lock to lock when you get tires...

Ordering 245/40/17 Dunlop Z1s tomorrow. I'm kind of anticipating full lock to be rub city since I have steering spacers. Will do though, and I'll post pictures.

Can't wait for pics

Well just as I was afraid of, the front tires hit the coilovers. Only way to avoid that would be raising the car a lot which I'm not a fan of. It's not slammed to begin with. Studs and spacers coming next week. The rear fenders are rolled and everything fits fine back there now. Not putting any wheels on until next week though.
