Thread: Bronze Enkei RPF1's 15x7 +35 offset

    Default Bronze Enkei RPF1's 15x7 +35 offset

    Just a few months ago I purchased a set of these from edgeracing.com. I found out that there are only 19 sets of these that were produced. I know I'm gonna sell them soon and I was curious what the local opinion of them is.

    I don't have a good picture of them on my car, but I will soon.

    They didn't get the Miatamoto bling bling seal of approval so they had to be shut down

    Sold only in Japan. Have to get a large order to get them imported. They have white ones, too.
    Wealth, power, and experience are apparently not enough to save us from social influences. Groupthink, as described by I.L.Janis, is the tendency for group members to reach a consensus opinion, even if that decision is downright stupid (Janis 1982).

    Limited amount sent to the states. It was supposed to be 20 sets/80 wheels. Half are +35 offset, half are +41 offset. One of the +41 sets only showed with 2 wheels, so 19 sets were sold.
    This was told to me in person by Randy Clayton who works for Enkei NA in Ft. Worth. He's Gail Clayton's son, of the Arkansas Miata Club that sets up miatas@hallett.

    The wheels are perfect with azenis on them and are gorgeous. I really need a set of 15x8 6UL's.

    Might ought to wait for the 6ULR for a couple more months. Sounds like they'll be well-worth the wait!
