vixenf6 Member 84 Member For: 10y 7m 7d Gender: Male Posted 11/10/13 04:02 PM Share Posted 11/10/13 04:02 PM (edited) Ok I am doing my head inI have read so many threads and still not 100%, Will Enkei 18 inch RPF1's clear 6 piston brembos.I want to run an 18 inch rim as I want a smoother ride but would like to have a wide tyre on the rear (FG GS UTE) preferably a 285 - 295 tyre and 245 on the front.Just want to check everything before ordering.What would I be looking at then 8 inch rim on the front and 10 inch rim on the back ?What offset ? don't want wheels hanging out of the guards.Centre bore is 70.5 for our beasts so I would need hub centric rings for those wheels I gatherBelow is a size chart from enkeiAll advice appreciated !

Sorry I can't give you any info on fittment as I have an fg xr6 t sedan. I run 17x8.5 +30 on the front and 17x9 +35 on the rear. They cost me $1220.

LU82 Bronze Donating Members 569 Member For: 11y 2m 26d Posted 12/10/13 11:17 AM Share Posted 12/10/13 11:17 AM (edited) I found him good to deal with , I knew what size and offset I wanted so it was fairly easy and he had them in stock.He is more familiar with japanese cars so im not sure if he could give you much advice on fitment. Im not sure if he would allow you to test fit them but you could always ask. They're a nice light wheel my 17x9 rears are 7.1kg each . But because of the style of wheel they can look small.He didnt have any hub rings in stock to suit our cars so I just ordered them off ebay.
