Black Enkei RPF1 for the snow

TSM330i · 01-31-2009, 08:26 PM

I've finally gotten pics of my Enkei RPF1 snow wheels and tires. They're 18x8.5 et40. I had to run a 5mm spacer on the front so I wouldn't rub on the coil-over. I left the rears tucked in (I know it looks bad), but it'll do less damage with all the crap on the roads during the winter.
These wheels would be great for a light weight track wheel. $300 from tirerack.com and they weigh only 18.5lbs. The quality of the wheel looks really good as well.
Bridgestone Blizzak LM25 in 225/40-18.

Turkishexpress · 01-31-2009, 08:47 PM

rfp1s and blizzaks are a great combo for the winter

dude - i love how you took the task of getting winter wheel/tire setup and decided to mod those as well - usually most will say "blah - my winters - hate em".
you made sure they were lightweight? HAHAHA thats classic

Looks good, Rob. I always had respect for Enkei due to their involvement in Formula 1.

looks awsome for a winter set up. those rears are pretty far in!

OEKlM · 02-01-2009, 02:29 PM

Like I said, these are only for the winter. The roads here have so much debree on them from the salt and crap they put down for the snow and ice. Keeping the rears tucked in will stop my rear quarter panels from getting beat up, so no rear spacers

nice winter set up

Fugly M3 · 02-21-2009, 12:29 PM

1clean335i · 02-21-2009, 06:02 PM

Shazmonkee · 02-21-2009, 10:06 PM

TPMS installed??? My 06 330i does not have TPMS. It has the FTM system which does not require sensors.
