Thanks man !! I’m sure your wheels will look great
Thanks! The Gunmetal Raijins came in . . . . . I am not going to mount them on the car yet, since they are saying that we might be getting snow in the next few days!!!! 18x8, 245/ZR40-18 PS4S. Pretty happy with how they look.

@Detailmylifeaway - I just bought the same RPF1's and will mount Bridgestone RE71R for track purpose. A silly question - what lug nuts are you using? I am having a hard time to find a "reliable" one. I don't really care about the look. I wan the proper torque for track abuse. Thanks so much!

Actually tire rack sent some with my wheels , I didn’t ask for any & there was no charge for any. But they included 20 new lugs. They weren’t any thing special, just regular silver lugs. Also I didn’t know this , but the factory lugs are a 22mm.

Man your gunna love that setup for the track, I have re-71r’s on my s2000 & I love them.

Same tire, different naming convention. Nothing to worry about. :thumbsup:

Got the RPF1 with the continental extreme contact 245 40 18 what a difference in the ride quality. I highly recommend it.

Thank you. Are you on stock suspension?

Your car looks great!
Yes it is stock suspension and the tires are Continental extreme contact, sears had the tires for 150 ea which was the main reason I chose them and they are great. Gas mileage improved as well as ride comfort but I don’t think I can take corners as fast as I used to due to grip. But it’s a daily so comfort and gas mileage win in my situation

Has anyone had clearance issues with the front brakes on Enkei 18x8.5 +40 or negative handling effects? Do they stick out alot?

RPF1 with Yokohama Advan AD08R 245/40/18 tires. According to Tirerack these run wide with a tread width of 9".

And here is a shot of the rim vs tread width.

@Night Fury, what lug nuts/locks did you use for your wheels? I'm looking for something similar to yours (read simple - no need for Rays/Kics/Etc). I am trying to find a good set of lug nuts with a 19mm hex to keep from marring the wheels with the socket.

I got mine at Tire Rack, they come in black & they were only $1.10 each, as for the lock, I bought it at Pepboys, plus 4 forniture rubber caps from Home Depot to match the black theme. Hope this helps! :thumbsup:
