Hey, Justin. Did I understand correctly that these fit the BRZ without any modifications? I'd like to get the 17x9 for my 2018 BRZ, but concerns about clearance have me leaning toward the 17x8 wheel.
@@TaidenDashnerGabaldon1 The 17x9 35mm offset which he got will not fit a BRZ with stock suspension because the wheel will come into contact with the strut, or the tire will at least. With coilovers this will sit flush. Getting a 45mm offset will not but the wheels will poke out of the wheel well significantly. I run a 17x8 45mm offset RPF1 on stock suspension right now and it's fine. Moving to a set of these 17x9 +35 with coilovers and etc.
+buddy Thanks! I thought I weighed them in the video, maybe not. I weighed again just recently and they were 15.7lbs each. They weigh about 44lbs with a 255/40 tire mounted.
For the cost, these are the best you can get in that size. Wedsport makes the TC105N, which is a great wheel at about the same weight, but almost twice the cost. You could also consider the Rota TItan's like I got, not quite as lightweight as the RPF1, but a bit cheaper.
The stock wheel/tire combo is around 42lbs. A 17x9 wheel with 245 sized tires is a couple lbs heavier, 44 or 45lbs. Obviously you get much more tire for about the same weight.
ActiveTarga AKA AGS_335 are you mental lmao? They are not reps, they are early model rpf1’s. Enkei’s newest wheels have the brand engraved in the front vs the first models which were engraved in the back. Not all of Enkei rims have the logo engraved in the front.
Do u prefer you arc8 wheels to these?
Nice wheels. Do these fit your 2017 subaru brz? Im thinking of getting a set for my brz.
Yep, they fit the 2017 cars just fine. Check out some of my more recent videos, I have the same wheels on the BRZ!

How well have these wheels held up since you bought them? Thinking about buying a set for my brz
Paolo Enrique Javier They have held up just fine. I still use them today.
Man those are nice! Do you remember what the weight was for each rim?
+buddy Thanks! I thought I weighed them in the video, maybe not. I weighed again just recently and they were 15.7lbs each. They weigh about 44lbs with a 255/40 tire mounted.
En-Kay not En-Ki... great choice, I'll be getting a set probably next year.
Thanks, I've always struggled with pronouncing that dang brand name hah. They are a great wheel for the price, super light and good looks.
How come you can't use an enkei 18x9.5 wheel? Does it have to be a 17 inch wheel?
+aaguirre123 The SCCA rules for the class I race in limits wheel size to 9" wide. The 17" wheel is the best/lightest option for this car.
Mint, very classic and stylish. I like your shirt by the way.
+白金 Thanks buddy :) Got the shirt at SCCA Solo Nationals this past year!
I see some Rocky Mountain Solo jazz on the wall behind you. See you out there. Just picked up a set myself with some RE11s for a GS GTI.
+Jeffrey Westfall Yep, most all my autocross videos are with RMsolo :) I am always driving 19 STX, occasionally 19 FS, see you out there.
Damn those are Nice!
+airsoft5005 Thanks! Can't wait to see how they look on the car :)
Seems like this the go to choice for lightweight wheels. Any other options I can consider ?

Might have to, I saw the price of the Wedsport. Yikes !!
Nice proyect,Q what size of the rims ,Enkei i have to buy if my actual wheel's size is
P215/45R17 ??
A stock sized wheel would be fine with that tire. So a 17x7" wheel from Enkei.
Sweet, how much do they weigh?
+tonyrocks951 They are listed at 16lbs a piece!
How much weight did you add or remove ?
The stock wheel/tire combo is around 42lbs. A 17x9 wheel with 245 sized tires is a couple lbs heavier, 44 or 45lbs. Obviously you get much more tire for about the same weight.
Btw Replica enkei

so with a 17x9.5+35 wheel spec what tire size can you run without stretching the tire?
A 17x9.5 wheel? 255's will fit on my 17x9's, a 9.5" wide wheel might do 265 or 275? Not sure on that one.
+Justin's Pit Lane with your 17x9 do you run 255's all around? or what size do you run. I'm not looking to stretch mine
I am currently running 245's all around. Lots of people run 255's on the same rim, I will probably try those at some point too.
Ok thanks for ur help I'm looking to buy some wheels just need to know a good size 👍
Cool man! Can't go wrong with a 17x9 & 245's or 255's, they fit right up with no modification what so ever.
