Vote for new Enkei RPF1 color!!

[Gruppe-S]

We are thinking about getting a VERY limited run of special color Enkei RPF1's. We have narrowed it down to either Gloss Black, or Gloss Bronze. The picture of the black is an actual prototype, and the bronze picture is actually a Photoshop edit. The actual bronze color will be more of the other sample bronze wheel shown. The chosen color will only be available in 18x9.5 +15, and 18x10.5 +15. I know these are "aggressive" fitments, but we want to be able to accomodate widebody S-chassis and 350Z owners as well.

We are also open to any other suggestions for wheel colors and/or sizing, so now is the time to say it!!!

White in 18x10.5 +15!

[ALEXTHESUS*PECT]

too many bronze wheels. i voted black.

how about a 18x9 +0?

[blackflag_Rms13]

Hmm, that bronze is lame. Out of those two definitely black. White would be cool too, I don't recall ever seeing white RPF1's, somebody got a pic?

[s14_rob]

Black all the wayhttp://img46.imageshack.us/img46/7506/l2324bb7469c22f1e60a8dfjl2.jpg

[Nachtmensch]

the black is dope!

[0100]

Also I didn't vote yet, put up a white option.

[adrians_s13]

the black is dope!

yeah seriously!..


too bad i fuckin voted before I scrolled down for pics :-/

[blackflag_Rms13]

lol why the hell would you do that, hahaha

[0100]

lol adrians_s13, your sig is laughing at you.

[adrians_s13]

lol why the hell would you do that, hahaha

haha... I thought I had a good enough imagination... LOL

guess not

[midnightouge]

yea i vote black, but what color is your car?

[crazyikimasho]

yea i vote black, but what color is your car?

Hes not asking for his own car. This is for a limited production that will be done for sale.

[DustinZ33]

dam, I wish I had known this before I ordered my wheels 2 weeks ago.

[Hailtothesilvia]

can't go wrong w/ big and black

i vote black

[blackrms13]

4 lug, black, RPF1, light weight, wide wheels = win

[DOOK]

white... white ALL the way.

[nevaland9]

i voted broze...black wheels suck, unless uve got super huge/shiney rotors with bright color calipers they just look like steelies unless your up close.

4 lug taka green ftw

Edit: wait, they make a gold already that looks too close to the bronze, do something crazy enkei!!!

"special bronze"? (shiny clear)

[k's_silvia2.0]

I vote black very super gt looking.

[vvtisupra]

either color but mostly black. I'd like to see the 17X9.5 +15 thrown in there because 17's feel real good in the front of S chassis

[sw20>>s14]

5zigen hyperblack...be on that enkei...

[DreamN]

I'm just a bigger fan of the bronze. The black is nice, but it's not for me. I'd love a set of those bronze enkeis in 17x9 +22.

[cdlong]

if there were 17x9.5 +18 5 lug avaliable, i'd be all over the bronze because black would look stupid on my car. bronze, however is the only color that would look good aside from silver.

[Audrey arm]

I like bolth. But i'm gonna vote for black. Just cause they'd look the best on my ride.

[TheWolf]

show something other than a 15" wheel. My 17x10's don't look anything like that...

[khilgers]

17's would be nice in black.

[hunter8411]

Black all the way. Oh and put me down for 2 18x10.5's when you do get them :naughtyd: .

[AzNCmB]

i vote bronze...
and if it goes, through, i'll try my hardest to get a set...

lmk

thanks!

[projectdrifter]

i like the bronz. great track rim.

[Gruppe-S]

It looks like we will be going with a set of Black 18" wheels. The guys over on the 350z forums liked the Black also. So it is very likely that we will get a small run of Black 18" wheels made, most likely limited to 10 sets!!! We will keep you guys posted on prices and availability!!

Thanks

DUDE TAKATA GREEN WOULD BE BALLA!!!

[low and slow]

Out of the two in the poll, I'm going with black.

[sideview_180sx]

Why not just pay the extra to get custom color. or get it powerdoated.

[M4Rl0N]

I would perfer Black 17's but that's just me

[Sky 3]

Voted black, cause black looks good with everything...

[Gruppe-S]

Why not just pay the extra to get custom color. or get it powerdoated.

You could pay extra and take a chance on someone else to powdercoat it, or you could pay slightly more (about $15-$40 per wheel) to have Enkei professionally color the wheel and keep the logos intact.

[BBSilvia]

i would have to say black

[xamraci]

That black with RED is HOT...the GOLD is hot also...I would have to lean towards the Bronze on my car(OR GOLD, it looks the same)since its red

[chris300zr]

gloss black fo sho.

[hustlervibes]

I say black because the red enkei logo looks hawt.

[RR777]

im also saying white but of the choices, black. bronze overall is a little played, but that bronze is just hidious.
how much more will these be then normal colors?

[JRas]

there both so nice do em both

[RR777]

you know what actually, ive always liked the gold ones except they only come in crappy sizes. and a bunch of 5x100s

[Jung918]

http://www.zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?t=159875

[swiftdrift]

white on bronze=sex

[ROIDMONKEY]

flat black...............

[S13Boosts]

gotta say gloss black!:bigok:

[TheBigDirty]

Gloss Black w/ Red logos! Hands down.

[jandysil80]

WHITE, somebody please make WHITE !!!!!!!!!

[boosted98gst]

any idea when the new colors are going to come out?

[Teknolust72]

I called them and they said black should be out in late February to early March....

[alindeman1989]

i love goooooold

[revat619]

What a joke... That "bronze" isnt even bronze. Its gold. And enkei already offers that wheel in gold. Black was a smart choice.

[sideview_180sx]

I say TE37 mag blue!!!

[PhAtXSuMo]

i like the bronze more

[vodka2]

ill buy a Red set of 18x9.5 with black logos.

[berz]

black for meeee

[Rob's S14]

I voted for black. The bronze looks to close to the gold.

[PF ALL DAY]

Don't be racist. Vote black!

[bbejj123]

too many bronze wheels. i voted black.


i hear that!! i voted black too

[94cc0rd]

time attack!!! black with red lip!

[blitzkrgCT9A]

i think satin black or flat black looks better.

[savannaae]

The black wheels look sick.

[idriveattz32]

this was 3 months ago, whats the deal?

[AutoRnD]

I think all the blacks are coming in April. That's when we get our high offset rotary black rpf1's.

[hotlavaflow]

Went with black over the bronze but damn white should be an option too.

[JesusFreakDrifter]

green would be awesome

[florante rea]

when are these wheels available in custom colors? i need to get a set soon.

[justaKAiswear]

wow, I never was a fan of the gold/bronze already offered, but Im really feeling it with the gloss!

[Bubba]

I voted for the black also. Please no red lips though, that's just that much more red I have to eleminate in the end. I would rather not have to refinish the entire lip. Removing the red from the letters in the pic will be cake though.

[da1ndonly]

id vote black all the way

[Teknolust72]

I just saw the Black ones at the Enkei booth at Formula D yesterday. Looks awesome!!

[nevaland9]

purple ? im down

[yokotas13]

ill just powdercoat a set and order new stickers

special colors are lame

[s14_legend]

definitely the black if i had to choose

[AutoRnD]

These are the

MATTE BLACKS: I made for the RX7's, FDeezle's. 17x9 +45. Shit looks the same though. Just less meat on the wheel mounting surface.

The gloss black looks a lot more classy than the bronze. Either way they are still nice wheels

[Impact Black]

I've thought about doing this on my RPF1s however, I don't know if murdered out is the way I want to go just yet.

Rishie


Rishie, I just recently sent you an email a few weeks back about ordering a single replace ment RPF1 that got curb checked due to an ass hat in an excursion.

How did you go about doing the coating? Powder coat or actually paint

[enkei2k]

i vote black because my s14 is black and i'm planning on blacking the crap outta my car.

The ones Rishie is getting for the rx7 guys are black from enkei. Shit looks dope!

[AutoRnD]

Sup fellas,

Ya we ordered these back in November last year and finally received our last shipment of the 18" HIGH OFFSET fitments. I veered away from the low offset ones on the first round because someone else was doing the 18's.

HOWEVER, i have something even better coming for you guys in a few months.

woot woot..... I can't let the cat out of the bag but it's NOT BLACK, NOT GOLD. hehehehehehe......

17x9 +22 and 17x10 +18.

GOES WONDERULLY WITH HOT PINK, NEON GREENS, REDS, AND LASER BLUE'S......

[zylvia213]

Oh yeah i think black... most def brothas.

haha damn you're too quick eric. how'd you guess.

I'm thinking they will roll in around August time.

[Gruppe-S]

Obviously Richie @R&D doesent know Silvia fitment. What kind of idiot puts a 17x9 +45 on a Silvia? It will not fit correctley on an S13 or S14. If you want propper fitment we have 18x9.5/ 18x10.5 +15

Good job on ordering the blacks in a kickass size, BUT.

THE 17X9's ARE FOR FD MAZDA's, NOT S-CHASSIS NISSANS.

It is pointless to compare the two when I can read plainly that the wheels he has are for an FD.

[AutoRnD]

Dude Eddie,

WTF are you talking about. I never indicated this was a SILVIA FITMENT.

You and your BIG ASS BOLD FONT. Don't undermine my intelligence nor the communities'.

I was merely trying to ASSIST YOU by displaying what the

OFFICIAL WHEEL WILL LOOK LIKE.

I DON'T EVEN HAVE THIS SHIT ON ORDER.

DO YOU WANT TO ARGUE WITH ME THAT THE 17X9 +22 OR 17X9.5 +18 WILL LOOK ANY DIFFERENT FROM ITS FACE. SO FOR ALL INTENSIVE PURPOSES IT SERVES AS A GOOD EXAMPLE TO HELP YOU SELL SOME LOW OFFSET STUFF.

MY NAME IS RISHIE BTW..... Read slower and you won't make diplomatic mistakes.

[IIIXziuR]

guys guys guys, can't we all just get along?

[AutoRnD]

I'm a total get along kind of guy. I don't rock the boat. I just thought it was funny that GPS got all defensive thinking i'm trying to sell FD Wheels to 240s.
lolz.... roflmao....

Tsk tsk

No need to be that way

Love and Peace! Love and Peace, right Logan-san!

Yeah man increase the peace

Its okay for two vendors to sell the same item

But no need to take jabs that are uncalled for

I'm not taking sides either, if Rishie had done that to you I'd be saying the same thing

[AutoRnD]

Totally, i'm much more of a diplomat. I don't do crap like that.

My REP IS SOLID for wheel fits....

[kyoru]

shit those are HOT

[vehicle_5]

It depends on the color of your car. I plan on getting a white car next and throwing on some gold or bronze wheels. But, right now I have a silver car with some dark grey/blackish wheels. A dark colored car would look best with some gold wheels also, but better with some silver or hyper silver color.

[EDacIouSX]

that offset isnt hella flush its a little bit beyond flush.

[ZX88]

neon colors! for drifting!

[let5l1de]

Yeah man increase the peace

lol! we know business doesnt ever "never" have any feelings... but all to often we find ourselves having feelings over business... just sell a great product with great prices and offer some service and that alone will go a long way...

btw: the black is the way to go... i want a set.

[[w]hite[r]abbit[x]]

Obviously Richie @R&D doesent know Silvia fitment. What kind of idiot puts a 17x9 +45 on a Silvia? It will not fit correctley on an S13 or S14.

17x9 +45 sounds pretty good for Subaru fitment. Do they make 5x100 or are they 5x114.3? 17x9 5x114.3 +45 would be pretty good for 2005+ sti. 5x100 for other subies.

[Unique]

Id go with gloss black

[nor-caljdm]

I will pick WHITE!!

[gnozahs]

The black would look clean.

[Om1kron]

both options suck.

[GSXRJJordan]

both options suck.

Way to bump a seriously old thread. :hide:

[KOUKIboy]

Gloss black over Bronze... But I got a suggestion;) how about luminous yellow or orange like the gramlights.....300th post yeahyeeerr!!

[VROOOM]

they made the black RPF1's. you can buy them at Tire Rack. i have some.

[DCP94]

im kinda tired of bronze wheels..i vote black
