For those not active on my350z..I posted this there and Im sure you G fellas/and gals will benefit from this as well..

You should be able to sort them too.. If your wheel is not on there..email the admin so he can update..



Cheers...

 

Nice! Thanks for the linkage!

 

"Jake is an awesome dude!"

 

Nice Job

 

Thx Yash... did you see how much them volks weigh?

 

Not quite. The Mechdb.net site is data from wheelweights.net but in a much better format, and with better sort-ability. Not to mention that we can keep it up to date a lot easier because anyone can contribute. Soon I'll start adding pages with pictures of the rims too.

 

Well I did a closer check and you are correct. I just looked at the 20" listing before.

Very nice job, keep it up I am deleting my previous comment.

Here is a wheel you don't have, the 20" just came out recently (it's what I am running.)

Enkei Racing GTC01 Hyper Black wheels and the 20" x 8.5" X 40mm offset weighs 24.3 lbs.

 

^^^hell yes! more additions to "the list" = WIN!


the more info....the better..

 

I'm glad you like it, and thanks for posting more information and pictures, I just added it in .

If you click on your wheel it goes to a page for pictures, I added yours along with your username, car info, wheel type etc.

Oh btw, obviously they're forged right? I'm 99.9% sure but it never hurts to double check. And one more question, sorry if it's kind of a stupid one. How come it has two valves? That is pretty interesting.

 

Excellent

Surprisingly the wheels are not forged, they are cast. Here is a write up about them:

Enkei GTC 01 Wheel 20x8.5 5x114.3

In 1986 Enkei became actively involved in motorsports by supplying 3-piece wheels to the F1 team, Minardi. In 1995 Enkei became an official supplier for team McLaren, which took championships home in 1998 and 1999. This team won four consecutive championships from 1996 to 1999. Enkei also supplies wheels to teams that race in the Japan GT Championship (JGTC), Super Taikyu, Formula Drift, Time Attack/Super Lap Battle, World Rally, SCCA, and D1 Drift.

All Enkei wheels are Spec-E. Enkei established its original test standard called Spec-E which is more rigorous test standards exceeding JWL requirements. Spec-E wheels represent Enkei's commitment to higher quality and safety, enthusiasm for racing, and passion for innovative design and performance.

Enkei's MAT processes make wheels strong and anti-flex. All MAT wheels are extremely strong and lightweight, which allows the car to accelerate faster and have more efficient braking, which in turn allows you to drive smoother and faster.

Enkei GTC 01 wheels features:

DURA-FLOW MAT: Enkei's MAT (Most Advanced Technology) process improves the molecular structure of aluminum and achieves wheels' weight reduction without sacrificing the strength. By improving material strength and changing rim profile, MAT evolved into DURA-FLOW MAT. While improved material and rim's profile optimize rims' strength and rigidity, new rim shape accommodates high performance large brakes.
TWIN VALVE: Allows accurate monitoring of tire pressure while maximizing tire and vehicle performance.
LIGHT-WEIGHT POCKET DESIGN: This innovative technique was created for the McLaren Mercedes Formula One machine. Shaving aluminum from the sides of the spokes relieves wheel stress and makes the wheel lighter, which is a crucial element in racing.
ANTI-SLIP PAINT: This special paint causes high friction where the wheel meets the tire. It reduces wheel spin to the tire during extreme acceleration.

Specs:
Size: 20x8.5
Offset: 40
Bolt Pattern: 5x114.3
Bore Diameter: 75
Weight (lbs): 24.3
Finish: Hyper Black

I believe there is a couple reasons for the 2 valve stems. Whether it is true, I don't know. One reason I read was since these are meant to be used on the track you can quickly adjust pressures by checking at one stem and adjusting at the other stem. I have also read some hiher end wheels have that feature.

Keep up the great work, I have bookmarked your site.

 

Excellent information, I added it in as well . And I fixed the manufacturing method as well.

Always interesting to learn more about wheels, now I know more about Enkei. Are there more listings of those wheels weights in other sizes so I can add them in as well?

 

Anyone else got any wheels to add to it? I really need some help with this website. I already spend all my freetime on it. Cmon guys, it's free to edit and there's no red tape like Wikipedia to prevent you from getting your information published.
