ROBOT VAN

 

the enki's are always a fan favorite but i almost think that depending on body mods that might change which look the best.

 

The SSRs in my sig are my favorite... I like the similarities of the ssr you posted too

 

weight might be a consideration here. i think those gt1'a are pretty heavy. not sure about the enkeis, but i know the rp01's were pretty light. also, check on offsets. i find that it's tough in certain brands of wheels to get a proper offset for an fd.

 

Without knowing the weights of both wheels, I would choose the RP03 because I think they look slightly better. But if the GT1's were less heavy, then my opinion might change.

 

i just checked the enkei web site and it does not appear that you can get wheels with an acceptable offset. you most certainly will have rubbing problems in any of the sizes listed that would fit an fd, especially with an upgraded suspension.

I prefer the SSR Integral GT1's - but that's what I'm driving on!

 

The SSR GT1's are very light... it's the look-alike three-piece GT3's that are bricks.

You can't buy RP01's anymore.

This will probably come down to widths and available offsets. GT1's are only available 9" wide, tops.

 

GT1 are on average 1lb lighter than the Enkei RP-series, size for size.

I'm trying to figure out if the Enkei MAT is equal or less than GT1 SS Forge.

 

18x9.5 with +38 will work out back. Under Special Order Sizes there is an 18x9 +40 which will work up front too.

That robot van is sweet! Silly japanese guys...

 

rp03, looks good in person.

Rishie (AutoRnD) has it in his shop.

 

rp03's no doubt

whats with that van??

 

I guess the question is whether RP03 will fit on a FD in 17" format.

 

SSR Professors. Five Spoke, beautiful, light.
