| Search doesn't give me much info in the way of fitment and/or opinions of running Enkei RP03's on a z32. I'm considering ordering a set in the following sizes/offsets: Fronts 18 x 8.0 +40
Rears 18 x 9.0 +40 Doing the math, it looks like the fronts will be pushed out a little under a 1/2 inch more than stock; and I think I should have plenty of space on the inner side to clear the stock brakes and suspension components. I am lowered 0.8" from the Eibach springs, but that shouldn't matter. The extra 1/2 inch in width over stock all goes outward. Since the stock fronts are recessed a bit anyway, this seems to be a very good fit. The rears are also a 1/2 inch wider than stock, but here almost all of the extra width goes inward. I think this is OK, based on reading about other people running 9.5" wide wheels with stock-like offsets without inner fitment issues. I know pushing the wheel outward in the rear is a no go if I want to retain "regular" camber and avoid fender rolling. The other positives about these wheels are: 1. Looks - they are a nice five point wheel. I think they look great.
2. Weight - Vivid racing's website shows the fronts at 20.2 lbs each and the rears at 18.3 pounds. I'm not sure how the larger wheel is the lighter one, but they're around 19-20 lbs which is fantastic for a cast aluminum wheel.
3. Price - Pricing is around $350 per wheel. For the weight, fitment, and looks, this price is very attractive to me. Does anyone have experience with these wheels? Is there a reason more people don't have them?
