Hi guys, I have just come to a good deal on a set of Accord Torneo R (euro R).
This was a while back when i was about to buy the RP-01 enkei. (old thread...)http://www.ek9.org/forum/tyre-wheels/8781-opinion-wheels-my-ek9.html
I liked them but didnt imagine them in the EK9, until, last night web browsing found this pick, and i was surprised....




I wanted to know opinions, and ask if some one has more pics of en EK with those?

Thanks
 
Anto-ek9 was sellin a set of these a while back.. i think thay are nice in that dark silver against the champ white..
 
yeh i like them would of had em off anto if had the dosh :(
 
Never seen those wheels on an EK9. Gotta say they look really good especially as the car's lowered.

Yeah I now Anto was selling those. I really came across his thread and saw that pic of the EK9 and was really surprised.

Me neither, and i think its very rare. i guess its a route not much people have gone.
Isnt there more pics of EK9´s in those wheels? Ive been searching and nothing on the web.
 
wheels look good :)
 
I think they look awesome and painting them C/W would make it a dull/boring combination imho.
 
they would prob look very similar to 98 spec dc2 wheels in champ white.. i like the contrast of the grey against c/w.. splits up all the white..
 
Possibly one of my FAVORITE rims ever!!! Unfortunately i am 4x100 or i would have had a pair a long time ago! I might just buy a pair and have them redrilled to 4x100!!

Im still debating about painting them or not. I think the CTR looks great in all white, just as it comes.

Yeah I think theyll look as 98 spec wheels too, but I always liked how they look on EK9´s..
 
I wouldn't get them unless you're getting a pretty good deal. Not that they look bad or anything just if you're going with a 17" wheel why not get something stronger and lighter than an OEM wheel? That's just my opinion.
 
Im not to keen on them on the ek9.. if they were an inch smaller , they would look a whole lot better.

if you do buy them dont paint.. the gunmetal is a good combo with the cw:nice:
You dont see it everyday.

Thyre not 17" theyre 16". i dont wanna go bigger than that.
I would love to get a lighter, stronger set (i really want advans, mugen mf-10, regamasters or ce28 in a future), but i cant spend U$1500 + in a set of wheels right now. And these im getting for U$400, I think is a good deal and look nice. I would have prefered the RP01 (on my other post) that i found for pretty much the same price, but the 16x7 and + 35 offset killed that option. I dont wanna roll my fenders.

I didn't know they were 16's, they look like 17's soo much in that picture.:)
$400 is good deal!
But you don't have to spend $1500 to get a strong and light set of wheels. Some used RPF1's would cost you around $800.
