4 Enkei Racing RPF1 5x100 offset 48mm
 

A new set of Enkei Racing RPF1 17x7.5 5x100 offset 48mm Silver like new. 2 of them new never mount, other 2 just mount the tires and unmount. Never drive on them. Selling because they don't fit over STI caliper. $800 obo.

These are *great* wheels for autox. Very light, 15 lbs ea IIRC.

Though, I think they're 17x8... I don't remember ever seeing a 7.5" wide RPF1... but Enkei does occasionally make weird sizes. Either way, they'd work with a 235/40/17 tire on 'em, which it about as ideal as it gets for autocrossing a WRX.

He thinking about get a spacer and put on his STI. Are spacer safe?

They actually do make a 7.5" and a 8" version for the RPF1, The 7.5" version being +48mm and 15Lbs, the 8" version being +45mm offset and 15.5lbs.

I have been doing LOTS of wheel homework lately:D

Better to just get the right wheels.

OK update new price. Better get the right wheels right??

did we determine that these are actually 7.5 wide?

Yes, it's 7.5"

is it possible to fit 245/40/17 on a 7.5" rim? i know it would be a stretch, but just wondering if anyone has done it successfully.

I look up on Tire Rack page, it's only show some 45 series not 40. May be too stretch for 40 series.

They'll fit, but they'll suffer a bit from sidewall rollover, I'd imagine. No biggie, just a little less crisp of steering response and a tiny bit less traction, I think.

The last time I had 235/40/17 tires put on 7.5" rims, the shop had a hell of a time getting them mounted. I imagine 245s would be even worse. I'm sure it's possible, but not optimal.

Weren't those Bridgestones?

Yep, SO3s. I'm guessing they have a stiffer sidewall than a lot of other tires.

If by a lot of other tires you mean all tires that aren't DOT R-compounds, yeah pretty much. :)
