18 inch wheel fitment
Hi All,
I have finally got the time to get my FD back on the road. Have just replaced some bushes, new radiator, pads and fluids. I also need some new tires but thought I would look at also getting some new wheels while I was getting tires.
I don't have a big budget so I was looking at the Enkei RPF1 as they are a forged rim and pretty easy to come by.
I as looking at 18 inch rims but I get lost when looking at widths and offsets.
I really want to avoid any form of rubbing and also avoid using spacers if possible, happy to get guards rolled if I need to.
Wondering if others can share their experiences with regards to 18inch wheels and fitment.
Cheers,
Isaac

Hi Isaac,
This is a very common question that has been discussed many times here on the forum over the last 20+ years.
There is a sub-forum specifically for suspension/wheels/brakes which has some useful sticky threads:
https://www.rx7club.com/suspension-w...sizing-416251/
https://www.rx7club.com/suspension-w...ide-fd-892901/
(This link above actually mentions the exact same rim you are interested in, Enkei RPF1, post #3)
Here is a wheel size photo thread, an incredible resource as well for wheel sizing:
https://www.rx7club.com/suspension-w...itment-895289/
Another useful method is to simply google search certain terms while using the rx7club prefix i.e.:
“rx7club FD Rpf1”
”rx7club FD wheel offset“
This will give you plenty of results which you can research and I’m sure you will find your answer.
good luck!
