What offset are you running and how wide are they in the front and back. Looks nice and low.

I believe they were 22 offset all the way around, I'll have to check with the guy. I had a special deal on these, just paid for the springs. No install fee, no mounting or balancing, tires, wheels, lugs, etc.

The SBC finish is actually really nice in person, much better than the pic on the Enkei website. No big lip but still looks pretty clean IMO. The rear wheels (Hard to tell from pics) is like the Volk te37 where the spokes curve (dont know the term) just not as much.

Weight on the back wheel without tires was 19.xx with a shop scale. With tires, I believe is was very low 40lbs but I will have to check again on the weight with tires.

Thanks for the positive comments.

Front 19x8.5 245/35/19
Rear 19x10 275/30/19

Of course weight with tires will depend on which brand/size tire you choose.

Could you PM me where you got these from, and the approximate price?

Thanks!

Those RPF1's look awesome in SBC. However, be extremely careful about potholes. I believe that the SBC finish is a spray on type chrome (to keep the rim lightweight) so you can't refinish the wheel by using a traditional chrome dip. It was really hard for me to pick the F1 silver instead of SBC. But I'm glad I did since the roads in Texas are filled with potholes. https://g35driver.com/forums/dfw-g35-owners-club/52851-bent-rim-repair-dfw-area.html.
