It's really hard for me to let these go but I have to; so hard that you should play leona lewis when viewing this thread

Ideally, these wheels and these specific tires were made to fit perfectly on an RX8 as they do not rub when lowered all the way. This fitment is not for the weak hearted and I recommend rolling rear fenders but buyer can get away with it if dropped with moderation, nothing too extreme.

WHEELS
Brand/Model: Enkei RPF1
Construction: 1PC
Specs: 18x9.5 ET45 All Around, 18.xx lbs
Color: Matte Black with Red Enkei logo. (Discontinued model)
Condition: Slight curbing on two of the wheels but touched it up. They are only on the very outer lip. This is how I received the wheels and did not curb that at all. In general, I would rate these 8.5-9.0/10.

The paint on these wheels are awesome and there are no chips anywhere. The center caps go for $100 as well

TIRES
FRONT
Brand/Model: Goodyear Eagle F1 A/S with Carbon Fiber Sidewalls
Size: 275/35-18 (Slightly stretched outward)
Condition: Since these wheels and tires are brand new--and also wide I might add--there was no camber wear. These tires are basically brand new. These wheels have carbon fiber sidewalls for added reinforcement and performed excellent in the rain and snow (and i'm from upstate!)

REAR
Brand/Model: Yokohama Advan S.4 A/S
Sze: 275/35-18 (Slightly stretched outward)
Condition: Just like the Goodyears, these are in the same condition, almost brand new. I purposely put these in the rear since they have very thick and robust sidewalls; you can see from the pictures.

The reason why I chose two different brands for the fronts and rears is because I have heard the Goodyear Eagle F1's to be a bit noisy on the road, so the noise is reduced by half, and these two brands--Goodyear and Yokohama--were the top two competitors in all seasons and are very expensive.

PRICE & OPTIONAL NITTO INVO TIRE PACKAGE
I'm not looking to lose or gain any money from these wheels as I haven't damaged them in any way... I bought them with Nitto Invo tires (~70% tread remaining) for $1500--I even busted my ass during school and drove to Canada to pick these up! You won't find this finish and especially this size anywhere. I replaced those Nitto Invo's with the Goodyears and Yokohamas which cost me exactly $829 with M&B.

So, I'm looking to get $1750 picked up, $1900 shipped. I would be taking a hit with this price too.

The optional Nitto tire deal: Because the Nitto Invo's are summer/track/performance tires, you can run these in the summer time if you would like, and also throw the Goodyear/Yoko tire on in the fall/winter. These tires are expensive. If you would like these too I can cut you a deal and set the price to $2200 shipped (Only $300 more for 4 tires).

 

someone should jump on this deal!

 

OH, forgot to add something important, lol.

I am currently in Queens, NY and am available for pick up; BUT, I go back to school Jan 15th... so those of you who want to pick them up and are local, act quickly before I can only ship! (Because my school is in the middle of no where and no one will be willing to pick them up in Ithaca, NY lol.)

 

can't believe you're selling them. I wonder if these would fix on my friend's evo7. I will let him know!

 

B, I've got about a 1 finger gap... I'm not looking to modify my fenders etc so... will I have any fitment issues?

BTW, I'd like the reiterate, I'm interested... Ignore the text under my name

 

Gl Brian, aspecs look good....

 

GL with your sale, if Enkei made these 19x9 in the black I would definately buy them.

 

Hm... one finger gap in the front would be okay, but you might rub if you have 2 or more ppl in the car or go over bad bumps, what are you dropped on? If you're on aspec suspension you'll be okay, if you're on lowering springs you might have to research it a bit more, and if you're in coilovers you can just raise the car up around 5 threads and you'll be good.

 

I'm on Eibach springs and Koni SP3s... 2nd perch from the bottom out of 5.

Maybe I'll do 255/265 tires instead. Would you sell me just the rims? Don't really want the center caps either.

PM me. I tried to avoid buying new wheels but since you got these, I've been secretly hatin on you.

 

hot wheels.

good luck.

 

straight up trade? you're kidding right

 

Bump for a good seller cause i brought his old Sevas. good luck with the sale kid. Looks like u got the a-Specs on already.

 

Question: my drop looks pretty close to yours... what did you do to make these tires fit?

 

I had to raise my car up a bit and rolled the rear renders. I think I can go a lot lower now in the rear which amazes me, but the front needs to be kept at least a finger or more gap.

 

Too bad they won't fit over the BBK...

 

Sexy wheeels! I keep coming back to look at them

 

hi my first post! haha u willing to sell w/o tires?

 

Sorry not separating tires from wheels.

 

Brian, in some of the pictures, it looks like the outer lip of the wheels are scuffed up. Is that just a reflection from the tire?

 

As stated in the thread there is some curb rash but it's very superficial. Wheels 1 and 3 are perfect from what I remember.

 

Brian, how do you think these would look on Allons car???

 

sick bro... I was over his crib the other day and we were talking about it... he's not too fond of 9.5 up front with a couple of mm clearance to the strut

 

Amazing wheels. IMO the best wheels on the market. I love them, and im looking for some but in 17s just weight issues. Good luck with the sell.

 

You should get them, so you can look at them in person instead of pics.

 

^ I want to...

 

Bump for a cool cat... Nice meeting you at Jae's shop Brian!

 

hot rims, but i happy with s type wheels n s/c'er. Tl days are over, Im going to start modding the 535i. Just pickd up the 19" oversized factory wheels 19x9.5 245/40 and 10.5 275/50

 

I see, If I were in the market, definitely.

 

Brian, I'm gonna pass on these because of the 275 tire. If you EVER decide to part (even though I know that'd be your last option), please let me know.

Again, good luck

 

Shut up Maurice. Haha don't make me change my mind.

I'm fine with rolling fenders but I don't wanna rub when I hit a bump or when I have passengers/luggage. Not worth it to me.

 

That last statement is kind of contradictory, because when you roll fenders you WONT rub when you hit a bump or when you have passengers, lol.

 

dont be a pussy and be afraid of aggressive specs

cmon buddy

 

YOU don't be a pussy and part the wheels! C'mon! Then you can look forward to the challenge of selling 8 tires. Thats a REAL man's challenge. Are you game??

 

.......lol

it's a matter of time and laborious effort to sell 8 tires which I don't have the time for at school

bump!

 

Sick wheels man. Can you drop any more or are you firm in your pricing?

 

Give me your email and we can discuss. You have 1 post so I can't send/receive private msgs from you... email would be best. If you're seriously interested then I could think about dropping the price a little.

 

Pkaye@teamjas.com day time. 8-6

Golfballhunter@sjgcc.com any time after

Thanks

 

Emailed.

 

Dude! Text me. Lets work something out.

 

Nice rims i would buy them but needs coilovers first!
