Key Features:
The Enkei RPF1 wheel incorporates advanced engineering and design elements to deliver superior performance and reliability:
- Rotary Forged Construction: Utilizes Enkei’s MAT (Most Advanced Technology) process to reduce wheel weight by 10%–15% compared to traditional cast wheels.
- Twin-Spoke Design: Enhances stress dispersion on curves, hard braking, and extreme race driving conditions for improved durability.
- Pocket Design Around Bolt Circles: Increases wheel rigidity and helps keep the wheel cooler during aggressive driving.
- Lightweight Benefits: Every pound of unsprung weight saved effectively reduces overall vehicle weight by approximately 20 pounds, improving handling and responsiveness.
- Finish: Durable black coating provides a sleek appearance while resisting corrosion and wear.
- Size and Fitment: 17-inch diameter with 8-inch width and +45mm offset, suitable for vehicles with a 5x100 bolt pattern and 73mm hub bore.
Construction & Design:
The Enkei RPF1 is crafted using a rotary forging process that compresses the aluminum alloy, resulting in a wheel that is both lighter and stronger than conventional cast wheels. This advanced manufacturing technique enhances structural integrity while reducing weight, which directly benefits vehicle dynamics.
The wheel’s twin-spoke layout is engineered to distribute stress evenly across the rim, especially under demanding conditions such as cornering and braking. Additionally, the pockets around the bolt circles add rigidity and improve heat dissipation, helping to maintain brake performance during track sessions or spirited driving.
Installation & Fitment:
This wheel features a universal 5x100 bolt pattern, making it compatible with a variety of vehicles that share this specification. The 73mm hub bore ensures a proper fit for many common applications, but it is important to verify your vehicle’s specifications before purchase to ensure compatibility.
The Enkei RPF1 is designed as a direct bolt-on replacement wheel, requiring no modifications such as cutting, drilling, or special tuning for proper installation.
