Enkei RPF1 Replica Wheels, Which Company?

[Rock Star]

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.

[RustRat]

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

[DK AFFECT]

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.

I think Traklite makes one. Seach Ebay

[tsingson]

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.

[kung fu jesus]

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.

[HarryB]

Interesting. Tried to find some extra info (weight, reviews, pricing) bu googling, to no avail.

15946 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.

[HarryB]

780 is more than a decent price for the wheels you get IMO.

[ScratchNSniff]

IIRC I was able to do these shipped around $670 new 2 years back, would be glad to check unless it is out of the budget...resell on them is a good deal higher then wideopens, so IMO worth the extra $$$...

[tsingson]

SNS, you can still get RPF1s?

How much on top of that for shipping in EU?

[Makross7]

I bought my 14x7 for 650 shipped last year in Sept.

[Hyper]

I have a set of Rota Grid Vs for sale. I will not ship

Working on getting updated pricing in the sizing, appears they have changed prices a tad since last big order I made...

[Rock Star]

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

I went the bargain basement route. I got 4 silver new ones for $350 shipped. I went with the Drag Dr 21. I like them because they are 15x7, 4x100, et 40. Here is a picture I found on the internet on what they look like:

15950

[Demon I Am]

Wonder how heavy they are.

[tsingson]

Those look good though. I looked at these before I went with the Wideopens. I read on the net that the weights are between 13 and 17 pounds.

[Demon I Am]

That's a huge range. They are pretty though.

Alex, that is a fantastic price. If I were ever to look for new wheels, I'll be hitting you up.

[tsingson]

Well, this was from people weighing them themselves on their bathroom scales. Who knows who is right.

[Rock Star]

I got these today, 15x7, 4x100, et 41, silver color, production date 8/1/2015 for $470.00 picked up. I changed my mind about buying the fake RPF1s.

[HarryB]

YES, great choice!

[Rock Star]

YES, great choice!

The RPF1 is light, about 9-10 pounds for a 15x7 wheel.

I am going to paint the RPF1s gold and I am going to use spray paint. I hope it will turn out okay.
