Key Features:
The Enkei RPF1 wheel incorporates innovative technologies and design features that deliver exceptional strength, weight savings, and heat management:
- Rotary Forged Construction: Utilizes Enkei’s MAT (Most Advanced Technology) process to reduce wheel weight by 10%–15% compared to traditional cast wheels, improving unsprung weight and overall vehicle dynamics.
- Twin Spoke Design: Enhances stress dispersion during cornering, hard braking, and aggressive driving, increasing durability under demanding conditions.
- Pocket Design Around Bolt Circles: Increases wheel rigidity and helps dissipate heat more effectively during intense race driving.
- Black Chrome Finish: Provides a striking, glossy appearance that resists corrosion and complements a variety of vehicle styles.
- Precision Fitment: 17-inch diameter and 8-inch width with +45mm offset, 5x114.3 bolt pattern, and 73mm hub bore ensure compatibility with many popular vehicles.
- Backspacing and Frontspacing: 6.27 inches backspacing and 2.73 inches frontspacing for balanced fitment and clearance.
Construction & Design:
The RPF1 wheel is crafted using Enkei’s advanced rotary forging technology, which compresses the aluminum alloy to create a stronger, lighter wheel than traditional casting methods. This process not only reduces weight but also enhances structural integrity, making the wheel highly resistant to impacts and fatigue.
The twin spoke layout is engineered to evenly distribute stress loads, reducing the risk of cracks or deformation during aggressive driving. Additionally, the pocket design near the bolt holes increases stiffness and promotes better heat dissipation, which is critical for maintaining brake performance under track conditions.
Installation & Fitment:
This wheel is designed for vehicles with a 5x114.3 bolt pattern and a 73mm hub bore. The +45mm offset and 17x8 size provide a versatile fitment for many popular cars and crossovers. Please verify your vehicle’s specifications before purchase to ensure proper fitment.
Installation is straightforward using factory mounting points and hardware. No modifications, cutting, drilling, or special tuning are required to install this wheel.
