I ended up going with an almost identical gorilla lug, but in chrome. Had to dig through their website a bit to figure out which ones were 19mm vs. 13/16" or 7/8".

Nice trick with the rubber caps on the locks, I'll have too keep that one in mind.

If there is noise that would be caused by the tires not the wheels?

just got these and istalled them on over the weekend. really glad I went with a 255/40 instead of the 245 tire as I think these wheels look much better with a beefier tire. all in all I am happy with the look for now... I do wish we had more options with this size RPF01 though I would have preferred to get the black ones with the red stickers but I do like the look I ended up with. when I get summers I may powder coat these wheels black but we will see

Looks great! No rubbing with 255/40 tires and the 40 offset wheels?

No, it does not rub at all, but at the moment I am still stock height. I will be lowering on Spoon Springs and don't foresee any rubbing with their drop either but once I lower it I will report back

Any issues with running 265s on RPF1s in 18x8.5” size?

I’d love a set of RPF1s with 265s on them, for the summer.

when running 255/40 tires and the 40 offset wheels (rpf1).. what alignment specs are best for staying stock as possible?? Don't plan on going lowered just wanna make the tires last

Nice! I was thinking of putting on bronze rpf1s on my white ctr. What you guys think? Have you seen that before?

They don’t make em so you will have to get the silver ones and have em painted or powder coated. Would potentially look good though depending on the final color.

I recently plastidipped my RPF1s and applied Tapeworks' fire gloss red rim stripes. I hope the rim stripes stick to plastidip. Center caps are from Flatout Graphics. Below are pictures taken at various stages.

Really well done. Love the new look. The RPF1s are the lightest non-forged wheels and these look awesome when plasti-dipped. Too bad Enkei doesn't offer these in higher offset and wider width. Only choice is 18x8.5 +40 in silver. After the new treatment, they look factory proper. ?

Just snagged these off of tirerack. Very much looking forward to them. Their my first ever set of aftermarket wheels for any car I've owned.

Hey,
1) Yep, they Enkeis will fit. You can use hub rings made of plastic or metal to fill the gap between the civic hub and the Enkei wheel. You want the wheel center bore equal to or greater than the civic hub.
2) no need for tire pressure sensors in the wheel. I’ve done both before (used OEM and Aftermarket valve stems on Aftermarket wheels before). Both worked well. Your choice based on appearance probably more than function.
3) not my area of expertise. I’ll let someone else chime in. I’d personally rather sell the 5x114s and pick up the right bolt pattern. Hopefully someone else can help with this question for you.
Where can I get these hub rings?? Just ordered a set for my car.
