    Enkei RPF1 Replica Wheels, Which Company?

    My budget is kind of tight and I don't want to spend that much money on a set of new wheels. I know that it will be hard for me to find a used set of Enkeis Rpf1 15 inches, 4x100, color gold in California. I would like to know a source for a replica Enkei Rpf1 wheel. Please let me know.

    Maybe Kosei K1? Not exactly a replica of the rpf1, but similar design, and a lot cheaper.

    Konig wideopens. I'm not sure if Goodwin still sells the gold ones. I have a set in 15x8 +25mm.

    You could always buy them in a different colour and paint them at some point. Konigs look reasonably close and their quality is OK. Koseis (not sure if available in US) are decent wheels as well, and pretty lightweight (10.8 lbs for 15x7); however they are supposedly less strong than Enkeis. You need to look for K1 TS, as there's' also K1 Racing, which is totally different. Not sure they come in gold though.

    Drag sells an RPF1 replica, I don't know who owns the company. Americas Tire sells them.

    Koseis only came in white and silver, from what I remember. The TS are the double-spoked ones. IIRC, I couldn't get those in 4*100, but they may have sarted offering that after I bought my K1s

    I bought my K1-TS way back in 2010, so I'm not exactly sure when you tried to buy them last...

    Don't buy fake wheels/replicas, by the way. The Koseis are legit.

    The Wideopens are fairly light and price point is good. I know a few members are running them and I believe KFJ has run his on the track.

    Yes, more than a few Miatas around here track on them.

    Good afternoon everyone. Would like chime in on this one. Heard about this one from a friend of a friend about an RPF-1 replicas. https://www.facebook.com/HrAutomotiveInc/photos check those guys out. Been willing to contact them on getting a set. It looks good and also they track the rims. I believe they are called Kazekiri, 15x9 and 4x100.

    sg_vehicles.24695.1.jpg Thanks for the replies, I was searching in the internet and found these. How close are these to the real Enkies?

    Rockstar your best bet on an RPF1 replica would be the Konig Wideopen. At least if the manufacturing process concerns you. That is considering rim weight and durability. The cheapest I have seen runs about $120. Konig is owned by Enkei iirc. These are not cheap copy of the RPF1's. They light and solid. Just my 2 cents.
    Now if you are near San Francisco and can save some extra. There is a seller on CL that sells a set of BNIB RPF1 15x8 +28 for $780 out the door. I believe they have quite several set in silver.
