ENKEI RPF1 15inch 4x100 15x7 35mm offset fit NB8B big brakes

Postby **tomli123001** » Mon Oct 19, 2015 4:38 pm

I have seen many Enkei on this thread from the search, most are on NA and NB8A cars and others have different width/offset.

So will the below wheel fit onto a NB8B SP's bigger brakes? The fitment is 4x100 15x7 35mm offset

What are they then? Just copies?

Crappy copies. Somebody bought a pair on one of the mx5 facebook groups I'm part of and one arrived with cracks.
Luckily you won't have an opportunity to use these since if they are anything like the originals they won't fit over your brakes.

Yes there replicas. If you want to buy replica cheap wheels. I recommend buying rota wheels since now they are making them in good quality and still cheap.

Many thanks guys. That saves me from an expensive mistake and big chunk of metal to dispose.

Usually the eBay sellers put the word 'style' in the item name.
This bloke is not upfront about it and that's not cool at all.

How can you tell?

At that price they are clearly fakes. It also states replica in the description.

To be fair to the seller of these if you scroll down and look in the description it actually does say replica.

But stating this in the title would have been more up front.

If you want 15" rpf1s to fit over nb8b brakes, you will need the 15x8+28. Otherwise you will have to go to a 16 or 17 inch wheel but in my opinion the spoke design on the 15" is best looking.

That is nice. Where do you guys buy the real Enkei in Australia in this size?
I really just want a set of 15" for later NB8B car. Will the NB8A 15" rim fit also?
