Anybody fitted or has the NT03+M or RR version in 18x10.5 +30 square setup? I've always trusted the Enkei flow forms, the RPF1s are proven tough in motorsports given their light weight. But I love the design of the NT03.

I lowered with RS-R springs and was able to get alignment to OEM specs (everything was on the green side of the alignment chart).

Love the new ride, car is less floaty now.

Looks great!

Did you need other suspension components like upper control arms to get your alignment/camber correct?

Not judging here. Looking for feedback.

Not sure if it was legit or just the circles I ran in, but back in the early 2000’s Konig was the Dollar General and Enkei was the Walmart or maybe Target of wheels.
Were we wrong?
Were we right, or close, but both have stepped up their game?

Again, not judging…I ran Enkeis for a while..

I wouldn’t worry about Enkeis, at least the Motorsport ones like RPF1 and NT03+M. They’re tough and some of the lightest out there, plus many race and drift teams use them. Konigs are popular with the Miata crowd and also good decent quality wheels, but not at the level of Enkeis IMO.

Depends if you daily or track or is it a trophy garage queen. Either way we love our Zs. Rotary Forged wheels from top of the line manufacturers cost at least 4000$ forna set while cast flow formed quality wheels that are heavier cost 1000$ for a set. I have spent 4000$ for TE37s for my FK8. This time around I just spent under 1200$ for a cool cast flow formed AODHAN set. Looks cool and does the job for a daily . I'm not tracking so it rolls haha.

That's a fair assessment, especially from an early 2000's viewpoint.

They were never "bad". My experience was that they would be heavier, less fitment choices, but much easier to find at the local tire shop. Rarely would those wheels be accused of being unsafe or terrible quality for the average buyer.

A few years back I couldn't get name brand 13" tires for my Prelude Si. Either I put ling long China tires on it, or I could get larger diameter wheels. I decided to get 15's since it'll be a while until that size becomes rare, but older Honda's run a high offset, typically 50-55. Finding a 15 with an offset close to that and that'd match with a 1987 Prelude was difficult. I ended up getting "Drag" wheels that had the right offset from Discount Tire. Not ideal, but getting good tires was important to me. I don't know what kind of reputation Drag wheels have, I presume they're even lower than Konig or Enkei. I never had any problems with the Drag wheels, finish held up well and they never became damaged.

The OEM wheels on my Q60 were Enkei BTW....

I've had Enkei FC01 on my WRX for the past few years. They're similar to the Enkei RS05RR (arguably my favourite designed wheel out of anything), but quite a bit cheaper.
I offroad regularly, and have done 30k on them, and other than the paint being a bit pock-marked, they still look fantastic.

Also, as others have said, they're quite light. I went 1" Wider than factory with 20mm wider tyres, and they still weigh less than the factory setup.

Wrapped in Continental DWS 06+

I am on Swift Springs no rubbing no issues. Just me tho for the rears I feel I could have maybe done better offset wise. Gonna throw 5mm spacer on and see where I stand. I will report back.
