Has anyone seen the Enkei RSF-2s on a Celi yet? I posted in the photoshop forum to get someone to chop it for me but got no reply. Pics would be nice. They would be 18x7 with a +45 offset. They would be ok right? What is the stock offset? Thanks in advance!

stock offset is 39mm

with the increased width and offset, you're moving the inside edge of the wheel about 0.5" toward the middle of the car...probably work ok, but getting close...

Ok tire.com has them in 18x7 5-100/114.3 40S. That is better right? I know 5-100 is the bolt pattern. What is the 114.3 and the S behind the 40 offset? I appreciate it!

I would go with the 40mm (in fact, I was considering buying that wheel in a 16 or 17).

the 5x100/114.3 means it's dual-drilled to accommodate both 5x100 and 5x114.3 cars...you'll need tuner lugs due to the small holes.

I think the "S" is for Silver finish.

You remember Duncan that I had to shave my calipers to fit the 18 passion 5s. The GTS has oversized calipers and you have a GT so you have less to worry about, but 45mm offset is a bit much. I have heard of people rubbing when they pull u-turns with 45 offsets. A 40 would be perfect. I wish mine had been 40mm....the 5x100/114.3 means it's dual-drilled to accommodate both 5x100 and 5x114.3 cars...you'll need tuner lugs due to the small holes.

Yeah, what he said... ;)

Cool...thanks Rox, and Bryan. Is there any loss in strength with tuner lugs? I have no experience with them, so I didn't know they had more than one bolt pattern on the same wheel.

I wouldn't worry a bit about the dual-drilled bolt pattern. It's very common and I've never heard of problems with it. The tuner lugs are still substantial and work fine...they're just designed differently for the narrow holes. Instead of getting a lug wrench over the lug, you get an adapter/key that fits into the middle of the lug (there's no room for a wrench to wrap around the lug)...the other end of the adapter/key is like a conventional lugnut...you put the wrench on that.

Yeah, I know a few people who have those but I never really looked at them closely. Sounds cool. Thanks again!
