    New Enkei RPF1's we have been waiting for

    Kent from enkei posted up a picture of what they are calling the RPF1RS wheel which has a slight concave face in a 15x8 +28 size. Should make a great a great option for those looking for a functional fitment wheel

    Thank you enkei. Always liked rpf1's with how light they are and not expensive. I think they finally offer a size that I can enjoy

    Much like their sister company's wheel Konig Wideopen 15x8 with available +20 or +25 offsets. Except for bragging rights I see not much difference.

    You mean less concave lesser lip coz' Konig Wideopen has concave face with about 1.5" lip. IMO it would have been better if Enkei made 15x8 +19 flat face with a lip just like their 14"s. Or better yet 15x8 +14 so a BBK such as the Wilwood would fit.

    Convex versus Concave


    Convex


    Concave


    Not only that, an enkei rep says they already clear big brakes, as mentioned by Phatmiata in this post.
