Enkei RPF1 17"

Looking into these wheels in a 17" x 9 or 17 x 9.5 .
The off sets for the 17 x 9 come in +45, +35, +22
for the 17 x 9.5 off sets come in +18, +38
I don't want my wheels sticking out past my fenders, But need the wheel to clear the type s brembos.

You will be quickest served by doing a google search for your RPF1 17" terms, but there is also a thread at the top of this forum that I'm sure has your answer.

I really appreciate your help. The first thread I've looked through plenty but have yet to find anything with a 17x9 with a +35.
I saw in you second thread someone talking about how you can call enkei to see if the wheel fits .
Still searching for more info. I'm in no hurry, I just want to get all my info together before I go ahead with the purchase.

As you can see in the pic below my wheels have enough camber, I don't anymore camber than what i already have, tires seem to be wearing pretty even so far.

I can't see crap in that pic. To show camber you need to shoot from the middle or side of the car, and use a long lens.

I have RPF1s in 17x9.5 38.

You WILL need a 10mm spacer to clear the Brembos. I'm just lazy atm to upload pics but i will this weekend to show you the stickoutness.

The rear view looks great. The front Is exactly what i dont want . I dont have the wheel to fender gap either. So hard to pick a wheel that fits and looks good.
I have been looking at the gram lights 57DR. I have read they have a more concave face to clear big brakes. im still trying to find some pics with the offsets

Our Brembos are a blessing and a curse.

You can run some negative camber or stiffen up your suspension.

Front camber is -1.1.

You can probably maintain your height between -1.5 and -2.0.
