How much should I expect to have to pay for Enkie RPF1's ???

[michael]

Hi All,

Any advice please. I did a search on the web site and didn't find much. How much should it cost me in Aus, for a set of 4 excellent condition used RPF1's, 15x7, 4x100, 41mm offset, in silver with valves and hub rings.

Thanks in advance for your insights.

I think most people get them from here.

$1040 off ebay sellers at todays current exchange rate. I'm looking at PF01s as I want to use a big brake kit.

Consider buying 6ULs locally instead from mx5centre. Buying used rims is risky, they usually arrive more dinged up than the seller indicates - remember that they are trying to sell them.

Thanks Fellas,

Do they come up often for sale second hand in Aus.

Oops I didn't see the "used" the first time. I quoted a new cost.

I agree, buy new if you can. Much better then buying 2nd hand, unless you can visually see the rims before purchase and better still, have them tested for being round.

Personally after all the issues I had with MX5centre, and the lack of sizes available due to manufacturer runs, I wouldn't go near them. But give them a call, you might get lucky with the colour/size you are after. Or James just might not take your call, or return your message, or both. Which he is famous for.

Agreed. Rubbish service.

If you do end up buying new, you can get them from the USA delivered to your door for around $985 delivered.

I've always had great service from James. He met me at the old workshop in 45˚C heat on a saturday arvo, so I could get the bits to get my car back on the road!

I'd buy from him again for sure.

Slightly of topic, has any one else experienced their RPF1s being out of round or bent

When I replaced my old Skyline's tyres I was told that all 4 wheels were bent and I know for a fact I didn't hit anything.

Apparently it is not uncommon due to the light weight design of the wheels.

Paid $1,000 for my enkei rpf1's.Extremely light, easy to clean, no buckling. One downside they won,t take big brake kit.

Well done, that seems a good price.
