The RP03's are not dead sexy. But that's just one mans opinion, and I'm sure I'm in the minority. Maybe it's in part to what you said about everybody having five spokes.

EDIT: I still think your sedan is hot.

I saw rim number 4 on an Acura CL last night. I really liked that rim, but once I saw it in person it just looked so plain...too vanilla. Definitely do not get those.

I have the RPM2's on my Legacy GT Limited.
They look great.
In the picture of the G35 with them, they looked bad for 2 reasons:
1. They were in 17" size with too big tires
2. They were put on a black car.

But I will agree, if it had a polished lip it would look even better. But
I still liked them enough to get them and get compliments on them.
They are also light and cheap, yet strong with Enkei name and reputation.

I'm still pondering various options. I hate to shell out the bucks and not be 100% certain I'm getting what I want. The three criteria are looks, weight and price. I'm willing to pay a bit more if the other two (looks and weight) are just right. But man, some of the rims out there are sooooo expensive.

But for the moment, I just can't quite fall in love with the looks of any of the Enkei's. They're all lightweight and reasonably priced, but I'm not "feeling them". You know?

I don't think you can go wrong with either one of those choices. I would recommend photoshopping each wheel onto a picture of your car to see what looks best. Of hand, I say the 2nd or 3rd. There are a lot of 5 spokes and ones like the 3rd out there but so what? They look great and that's all that counts.

I think the RP03 looks sexy, what made it even better is the design of the center cap and the lug nuts area. There are much details in it especially the center cap that says "Enkei Racing"....

Better pics of RPM2's, this is how they really look when they are clean and no camera missteps are making them look artificially dark.

Well..
I tried to get you guys some pics on my Enkei RPM2..but unfortunately,
I just had an accident last week...Jesse...

but all I have to say is, they are structuarlly very strong!
RPM2 is the way to go if you want performance and price.

(btw..dun buy 17" tho...)

cheers,
Godmans

I like the Enkei RPO3 (second wheel).

Anyone have/seen any pics here of that type of wheel on a G35 coupe?

Man, those DO look great! I've been shying away from them for the exact reasons you listed. They'd probably look awesome on my Brilliant Silver.

PS What's the verdict on your 350Z H-Tech's? Springs are likely my next mod.

Anyone know the weight of the Enkei ZR1 wheels in
18 x 8 or 18 x 7.5 size?

They look great but Enkei only lists the weight of their
"racing" series wheels, not their "performance" series (which
is what the ZR1's are under.

Thanks
