Featuring a 5x100 bolt pattern and a +45mm offset, this wheel fits a wide range of vehicles with compatible bolt patterns. The RPF1’s twin-spoke design enhances stress dispersion during cornering, hard braking, and aggressive driving, making it ideal for spirited street driving and track use.
With its silver finish and race-inspired engineering, the RPF1 offers both aesthetic appeal and functional benefits. Whether you’re upgrading your daily driver or building a dedicated track car, this wheel delivers improved handling and reduced unsprung weight for better overall vehicle dynamics.
Key Features:
The Enkei RPF1 incorporates advanced design and manufacturing techniques to optimize performance and durability:
- 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, during hard braking, and under extreme race conditions for improved strength and reliability.
- Pocket Design Around Bolt Circles: Increases wheel rigidity and helps keep the wheel cooler during aggressive driving sessions.
- Size and Fitment: 17-inch diameter with 8-inch width and +45mm offset, suitable for vehicles with a 5x100 bolt pattern.
- Hub Bore: 73mm to ensure proper centering on compatible vehicles.
- Silver Finish: Classic and versatile color that complements a wide range of vehicle styles.
- Reduced Unsprung Weight: Every pound saved in wheel weight effectively reduces overall vehicle weight by approximately 20 pounds, enhancing acceleration, braking, and handling.
Construction & Design:
The Enkei RPF1 is crafted using rotary forging, a process that compresses and strengthens the aluminum alloy, resulting in a wheel that is both lighter and stronger than conventional cast wheels. The MAT process further refines the wheel’s shape to optimize weight savings without compromising structural integrity.
The twin-spoke layout is engineered to distribute loads evenly, reducing stress concentrations during demanding driving conditions. Additionally, the pockets around the bolt circles not only add rigidity but also promote better heat dissipation, which is critical during track use or spirited driving.
Installation & Fitment:
This wheel is designed for vehicles with a 5x100 bolt pattern and a hub bore of 73mm. The +45mm offset and 17x8 size make it compatible with a variety of cars that use this common bolt pattern. Before purchasing, it is important to verify the wheel specifications against your vehicle’s requirements to ensure proper fitment.
The Enkei RPF1 mounts using standard lug nuts and factory mounting points. No modifications, cutting, drilling, or special tuning are required for installation when matched correctly to your vehicle.
