Enkei RPF's
 
Hey,

Over the winter I will be looking for a set of Enkei RPF's.

I'm going for an aggresive look but yet still handle amazing at the track. I'm debating on what size to go with. It's definitely going to be 17". I was thinking for the rear 17x10 with a +18 offset i believe it was, and fronts 17x8.5 or 9. Versus having the same width all around example : 17x10 all around (just an example)

For sure fenders are going to get pulled, and throw on a set of over fenders for the rear.

Help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

17x10 +18 might be a little "fun" to fit, but not impossible. If you do 10s on the rear, I'd do 9s on the front.

If your going with such low offset, your going to have to run more negative camber which in general is a sacrifice for handling

If he runs overfenders and actually trims the fender out, he could go up to -3 without adverse effect on handling. I'd say he's well within safe parameters.

It will take some work but it can be done. The negative camber will actually improve handling at the limits but will wear tires more quickly.

^^ I use to run -2.5 camber in the rear and it handled sooo nice, but my tires wore terribly fast (street use)

Pulled it to -1.5 camber (the least I could go) and WOW did i feel the difference in body roll, you'd never think that suttle change would make such a difference but damn did it ever.
