Key Features:
The Enkei RPF1 wheel incorporates innovative engineering and design elements that deliver superior performance and durability:
- Rotary Forged Construction: Utilizes Enkei’s MAT (Most Advanced Technology) process to reduce wheel weight by 10% to 15% compared to traditional cast wheels, improving unsprung weight and vehicle responsiveness.
- Twin Spoke Design: Enhances stress dispersion during cornering, hard braking, and extreme driving conditions, increasing overall wheel strength and durability.
- Pocket Design Around Bolt Circles: Increases rigidity and helps dissipate heat, keeping the wheel cooler during aggressive driving or track sessions.
- Silver Finish: Durable and stylish coating that resists corrosion and complements many vehicle styles.
- Precision Fitment: 17-inch diameter, 8-inch width, +35mm offset, and 5x114.3 bolt pattern with a 73mm hub bore for a wide range of compatible vehicles.
- Backspacing & Frontspacing: 5.88 inches backspacing and 3.12 inches frontspacing for optimal fitment and clearance.
Construction & Design:
The Enkei RPF1 wheel is crafted using rotary forging, a process that applies high pressure to a cast wheel blank while spinning it, aligning the grain structure of the aluminum for enhanced strength and reduced weight. This advanced manufacturing technique results in a wheel that is both lightweight and highly durable, capable of withstanding the rigors of track and street driving.
The twin spoke layout is engineered to evenly distribute stress loads, reducing the risk of fatigue and improving the wheel’s ability to handle sharp turns and sudden braking. Additionally, the pocket design around the bolt holes not only reinforces structural integrity but also aids in heat dissipation, helping to maintain brake performance under demanding conditions.
Installation & Fitment:
The Enkei RPF1 is designed for vehicles equipped with a 5x114.3 bolt pattern and a 73mm hub bore. It is important to verify your vehicle’s specifications before purchase to ensure proper fitment. This wheel fits a broad range of cars, including many popular Japanese, Korean, and American models.
Installation is straightforward using factory mounting points and hardware. No cutting, drilling, or special tuning is required, making it a direct bolt-on upgrade for compatible vehicles.
