how much u getting them. dont mind me asking?

well ive already got the the NKBs on my car. but i was thinking of getting the Enkei 2 piece wheel. $3800 (without tires). and im selling my NKBs for $3500, brand new they were $6000 shipped (without tires)

[tony1234]

The NKBs.I think they suit the car better.

RPF1 type RC
18x8.5 front and 18x9.5 rear (45+ offset) with (255/40/18 tyres on rear)

look better,

RPF1 look more racey imo look better, NKB look more VIP.

[felixd]

just go VIP lah ...

[cupnoodle]

elites for sure

[Rein]

soo far only crapdaz have agree with me..

[Crapdaz]

yups i am so not a big fan of VIP wheels....hence why i got gramlights + CE28's puahahhahaha!!! I win!!

also note RPF1 are easier to clean!!! :p

[Darkii_]

I agree with crapdaz too, i prefer the first ones. Still trying to picture how it would look on a euro but lol, but the first ones do look better to me

[Euro_CU2]

KEEP THE NKB Elite 8 !!!..... It looks Awesome on the car.... !!
The others wont look that good..

soo far only crapdaz have agree with me..

Then you have already made up your mind, so it doesnt really matter.

Also the Enkei is not vip rim but the NKB is.

So im confused with your question :confused:,

lol.

[kleo]

NKB Elite 8 for VIP

[Rein]

decision made.. sold my NKB's and got the Enkei's... wanna try a different look this time.. Japanese phat vip.. the main reason i got the Enkeis is because i dont want to have problems with the cops (and i dont want an engineering cert), have a EuroR kit on. which i dont think will suit the NKBs and save on tyres... and not many people have the RPF1 TypeRC's.

[aaron]

did u end up getting $3500 for the NKB's?

[JDMWhore]

I like the RPF1 Type RC ones.. my personal favourite are buddyclub p1's but there not JDM VIP PHAT WHEELS.. heres my fav:

The enkei RPF1 is not a vip rim,
Your car will be racer style. JDM, especially with the euro R kit on.

[defibros]

post some pics when your new rims are on ...

cant wait to see..
