Ordered Enkei PF01 for delivery mid July for 1100USD
I did consider the OEM route floppy not cheap even ones needing a refurb, they are Enkei any way
The PF01 are good sizes , using floppies recommended offset guide 17 x9 et 60 reduces inner clearance by 1mm and out side clearance by 11mm, 17x8 et50 gives the same reductions over OEM , so better than the Rota options less likely to have any problems at all

I've heard varied reports on Rota quality and their offsets are invariably shite for the benefit of the poseur crowd. Or is it because their shit castings cannot withstand the loading enforced by the required high offset?
The Enkeis even look more factory-cool too.

for LSD.Ordered my Rota Grids from them. Probably not a lot different in price to UK, but managed to get a colour and offset that at the time was not offered in the UK. (Not sure if it is now).
Shipping is always fast and import duty has never been that much.

I'd be interested to know if the PF01 and the PF01SS are in fact different shades of silver. This is the exact wheel choice i'm going to be ordering over winter and i know if i noticed the difference it'd drive me mad! The thought had crossed my mind but i sort of assumed that Enkei would only have one big tin of silver paint?

I'm going to double check this at lunch but I'm pretty certain they are the same. The PF01SS has a high gloss silver lip on some colours, like the black, but not on the silver. I'll report back in a mo
