    Enkei RPF1

    Hey everybody, I just purchased 4 Enkei RPF1 wheels in 15x7, with the 35 mm offset and the 74.1 mm bore. I can't wait to put on some sticky s drives and have a decent handling setup! I have looked all over and it appears that the consensus is to have 10mm spacers installed to ensure nothing rubs? I haven't found a solid answer anywhere.

    Furthermore, I will need 75 mm wheel studs for when these wheels come in, as I plan on converting to studs, since this car will be seeing some autocrossing/perhaps track duty. Is all of this information correct? Will I need longer studs to clear the spacers and the wheels? I'm sorry for these basic questions, but I can't seem to find a clear answer and I have looked. Perhaps I'm just bad at googling, but I don't think that's it. I just don't want to buy the wrong product and have to swallow any losses. Thanks!

    Yes you will need long studs, and I would say you need more like 15mm spacers. I run 15x7 et12 with 3mm spacers up front to clear the caliper, effectively making it et9, and although a little aggressive its not what I would call flush.

    They don't really make an RPF1 in what I consider a good size for E30.
