Hi, I was looking for some wheels and I like Enkei which are used on spec c ra-r, but find out that they are in two sizes 17" and 18", is there any other difference in size like offset or width? also do you know how much I would be looking to spend on set of these in size 17" I didn't find any for sale in UK though
I believe blobeye type RA wheels are 17" and hawkeye type RA wheels are 18", type RA-R are definitely 18". Both are 8J wide but not sure if the offsets are the same. The wheels are super rare in the uk from what I've researched and been told so your best bet would probably be to import a set. Have the 17"s on my jdm blobeye. Absolutely love them!
Thanks for that, while searching on the internet I found 18" which are 7.5" wide and ET55 so this must come off hawkeye then, I'd like to get ones for my blob and I'd prefer 17" as I could just swap the tyres from my current wheels instead of buying set of 18", never imported anything but quick look gave me a rough idea that it's about £1k for used set :/
Luckily mine came with them when it was imported. Had my car 3 months and was told by who imported it, that the wheels were around £1000 second hand too.
