white Enkei NT03+m infos

hey guys,
i have a few questions on Enkei NT03+M wheels.
(i had a thread opened *about Amemiya FC2000 time attack rx7*, but beside the model of the wheels, i havent received any answers).
i want to go buy a set at a JDM shop near my place.
the set they have is WHITE.
every where i searched, all the pictures i saw where either SILVER, GUNMETAL or HYPER BLACK. i never found any pics or infos on the WHITE ones, with the exception of the Amemiya RX8.
even on the enkei website, they only talk about 2 colors.

but ive heard about 2 'special' editions of those models.
1. the 'limited' edition , which i think were some near flat black with the 'hologram' type of writing.
2. the 'touge special' edition , which i have no infos AT ALL !!

any pointers, infos and pics are welcome !!!

thanks for you time and help guys.
Bruno



here's the pictures i talked about.





heres the most common color i keep seeing, which i absolutely love.

All it takes is a trip to a powdercoating shop and you can have your wheels any color you want. Unless you want ultra-rare JDM originals for some reason, color really doesn't matter all that much.

Thanks Charlie for the plug.

Well it's funny you mention the "Touge Factory" Limited editions. Yes they basically purchased the lot of those. There's another order of them coming as well going to Touge Factory. They however only do 18x9.5 +27 in Matte Black. They add the hologram decal themselves. Designed mostly for the EVO Guys.

It takes 40 pieces of a specific Enkei part #, along with Japan approval, to get a special color made. I have also done the same as one of their distributors for RPF1.

So in other words, unless a limited run was done in Japan in a single fitment, they are probably custom finished.

In terms of the FC josh is correct in that there isn't great fitments. Here's what you would have to get. BTW I can get these powdercoated white if you'd like. They will be much more durable than the Enkei painted white. esp if you're in canada.

As far as I can recall the FC2K was running RPF1.

NT03+M:
18x8.5 +38, prob need 10mm spacer
18x9.5 +40, ideally add 5mm spacer

Oh and it's not sold in Japan anymore, the USA has very limited fitments. They chopped em down this year. This might be phasing out.

the thing is, the wheels i saw are 17'' what type of spacers would i need ???
and they are white with the blue enkei writing.
it really looks like its the original color of the wheel. they probably are 10-15 years old models.
and as for time attacks, the FC2000 was running nt03+m :
