Default What 5x100 Enkei Size Should Gruppe-S Do Special?

Hey guys just a bit curious and looking for some some HONEST opinions. As many of you know Gruppe-S is one of the Largest Distributors of Enkei Performance Wheels on the West Coat. Such a great relationship with Enkei has given us the opportunity to release some exclusive colors and sizes.
If we were to have Enkei make us a RPF1 Black edition in 5x100 what size would you 02-08WRX/ 04 STi guys be interested in? Please be honest about what size you would run not what size would look great with major fender rolling, extreme negative camber and a wide body.


RPF1 Black Edition (5x100)
1- 17x8 +45
2- 17x8.5 +40
3- 17x9 +35
4- 18x8 +45
5- 18x8.5 +40
6- 18x9 +35

Those are so hot! If they are sold in the new hub pattern I may be inclined to purchase a set when the funds allow for it.

I'd very heavily consider buying the 17x9 or 18x8.5's.

17x9's would be great for autocross, I'd be in for something like that!

I'd go for the 17 X 8.5 for the fronts and 9 in the back if possible.




w/ the RS's that i have, the fronts sticks out a tiny bit compared to the rears

9" +35 will not clear the Brembo.
All sizes will fit the WRX
