rota grid vs enkei rpf1

TeamRPM · Apr 3, 2013

Image wise im a fan of the rotas... but in the real world im a fan of function over flare. so i would have to say if your looking to get good times then find a set of lighter wheels that tickle your fancy. sounds as if you did that with the enkies so i would say go there.

so in my mind its hard to make an official choice.

it stands as this....

looks---Rota

function---Enkie

IMO... but thats all it is. and everyone knows opinions arent facts

Of course they'll fit with huge fender flares.

This. Now, imagine you don't have these...I suppose you could use the protruding bit to sit on at events.

Unsprung weight is unsprung weight.

Its no brainer for me, go with the lighter rim. You will find many of us on here are in the "function" department and not the "fashion" department.

If its solely based on looks, the only person who it matters to you, is you, so choose a rim you like and be happy. :thumb:

Legit brand or copy's

Shouldn't be a hard choice really. Seen so many sets of rota's collapse on themselves, never heard of it happening to an Enkei

concave grids would look sweet! RPF1s I feel are so played out especially in the evo world

Crazylilpunk · Apr 11, 2013

I would go with the grids because of the price difference personally. In terms of looks, both great looking wheels, but two completely different styles.

I agree here but to me I would also be comparing the price difference

LandoAWD · Apr 12, 2013

If you do that, compare the quality difference, too.

As popular as the RPF1's are I say go with them as they fit well with the 2g body style and are lighter.

Total Eclipse · Apr 12, 2013

Damn it! I won't be the only 2g with blue rims anymore. LOL

I prefer the thicker spoke, but as said already, choose what YOU like. I also agree that size/offset is not going to clear very well.

my vote is on the rpf1s better quality lighter and look better all around

Rpf1s > Rota

NeverEndingProject · Sep 29, 2013

RPF1 all the way, they look more aggressive to me and they are lighter and if you're gonna be doing more track driving then get those!

get the top ones

cyhm · Oct 17, 2013

I didn't read the other posts, so idk if it's already been said, but both are very played out now a days. However, the rpf1s are much better quality than the rotas. That being said, I admit I like both of them, but from a quality stand point, I'd go with the rpf1s.

Uh... RPF1's. What are you trying compare?
