They are Enkei PF01 , I purchased them from LSD motor sports in the US $1100 and £100 duty in UK , came with centre caps and chrome valves , generally more expensive in the UK

17 x 9 offset 60 , 17x 8 offset 50 or was it more can't remember but perfect fit and no rolling or messing about.

Federal RSR 595 tyres 255/40/17 rear and 225/45/17 fronts all 94w

I think they are going on my wish list


I saw a set on an S at the club stand at the Silverstone Classic yesterday but I don't know whose car it is.

No,just cheap chrome plated steel ones with 60% seats from fleabag £20 .

If the wheels. Had come direct from LSD and not direct from Enkei LSD would have thrown a set of nuts in for free !

32psi (cold) is fine for the RSRs, but have play with it.

I find 30psi is good, car feels a bit more sure footed in the corners, but probably increasing drag a little.

Thanks for tyre feed back , was thinking of dropping from current cold 34psi as this was a stab at pressures as tyres fitted and to be honest they look sort of over blown!

First thoughts about he tyres

1. They do tramline might change with pressure adjustment
2. Much noisier than Toyo TIR previous tyre , but overly intrusive
3 Sharper turn in
4 Feel. To some extent like the original Bridgestone S002 that were on the car for first 5 years until discontinued , they had very stiff side walls too
5 in the wet on sat they felt ok drove carefully no dramas , you can feel they don't like standing water , so extra care at night on unlit roads I think.

agreed, 30 was working for me as well. if youre on a long journey you could pop them up to 32 if you want to try and decrease the RR.
