Enkei RP-F1 15x7, 16x7, 16x8 on Miata NA/NB and NC 18x9.5s

so if a guy really wants 245/35/18s is the 9.5" the only/best option with the RP-F1.
BTW, I wasn't the biggest fan of the RP-F1s appearance till I got a set from you for my NA. Every body comments on how they look so "not messing around". Not blingy but not fugly.

Yep, the 9.5 is it...I wish they made a 48mm 9 inch wide but they don't.

I took advantage of the special offer from Good-Win that they're running. Great price for great wheels/tires. I went with the 225/40-16 T1R's.

The car is sitting on Tein Basic coilovers. I think the hub->fender measurement is approx 12.5" front and 12.75" rear. Not super low. It actually looks higher than that in the pics because I'm not sitting in the car. It sits about 1/4" higher on the driver's side when it's empty.

I think the car looks pretty good with these wheels. The fitment is really nice and I like the fact that I can go with 245/35-16 tires in the future if I want to.

Gotta get me some of these Awsome ride Been trying to decide between 6UL and RPF1. Your pics decided for me!

[Brian]

All ready for autocross practice tomorrow! 18x9.5 all around...

This is my favorite wheel by FAR! Can't wait to get mine - I had them included in the deal when I bought my NC 2 weeks ago. I spec'd 17x7.5" ET48 RPF1s with 235/40ZR17 Goodyear F1 GS-D3 tires. I'll be sure to post pics once mounted.

This has been a great forum to help me decide - thanks, Brian!

Thanks, Ron! A pic of your GG car was my inspiration. My Jetta was white, and my dad had a white '74 911 Carrera with black sport seats - always been my favorite!

For the record, I have Mazdaspeed springs, swaybars, and front tower strut bar, plus Koni Sport shocks and the wheels and tires. I'll add Brian's header and midpipe to my MS exhaust in a short while.

Thanks for posting the pic, Brian!
