    Although these 15's are still awesome. I'd bet that they'll be around 11-11.5lbs. going on that the 15x7's are 9.8lbs., and 14x7's are 8.6lbs.

    New Enkei RPF1's we have been waiting for

    They do look nice, especially in that SBC finish, but I'm on that 14" bus

    For a track day these are going to be a great option. The tire choices are so much greater in 15''. They clear sport brakes, same great look, still will be light weight. Im a fan of 14'' even on NB's but ill more then likely own a set someday.

    big caliper clearance isn't necessarily sport brake clearance. often there's issues with the banjo bolt fitting as well. so we'll have to see. hopefully they'll clear sport brakes though.

    This is true, hopefully nothing a spacer couldn't fix

    Bout time! If they are <11.5 lbs than I will have to get a set because I wanted rpf1's from the start but tire selection strayed me away to the 15x8 konig flatouts which are a bargain at 12.4lbs and $109/wheel. That sbc finish is nice!

    I chuckled... There isn't a GB and/or any sort of discount but Enkei sent Brian at GWW 8 sets + one extra for a total of 35 wheels.

    The first 8 sets are being sent/being delivered right now. Mine arrived this morning. 15x8 +28, silver ONLY, 11.3lbs each. I won't link other forums so that research is on you. Mods here hate me enough already... According to Brian, black is a maybe. All other colours/finishes are a no or, at best, a long shot. So far there hasn't been any update when the next batch will arrive in the U.S.

    I got five and one guy did a stagger/split on a set to run 15s in the front and 16s in the rear on his V8 Roadster. As of Friday there were a total of six left.

    What they look like wrapped in Hankook 225/45 R-S3s on a NB.

    I love them! If they do a SBC run I'm so in, even though I'll have to get another car to run them on...
