Enkei RPF1's on 2010 3

Postby J'sMZ3 » Sun Nov 01, 2009 9:14

Just had these installed Saturday on my 2010 MZ3 Sport. Black Enkei RPF1's 17x7.5 +48 offset and 15.2lbs each. I just need to get it lowered now!

Thanks!!! H&R lists a kit for the 2010 3's Drop is 1.6 front 1.9 rear. I'll have to see if 04-09 adjustable rear camber links will fit the 2010 first.

I was about to say "down size?" ;)

Yeah I thought it was a speed3 at first....the edit key saves me from looking like an idiot once again. Hopefully you can find the camber links...are parts for the 09's hard to find right now?

I hear ya... the edit button Is a life saver sometimes!

Only a few things available specifically for the redesigned gen 2 2010's ... some parts like springs, rear sway bars and front strut tower bars cross over from 04-09 gen 1's but finding out what fits takes someone willing spend the cash and take the chance on it not working :eek: I have found a few companies that make camber links for 04-09 Maybe i'll be the first to try!!

What size are those? 17's? Wow... those look tiny. Maybe it's just how the car is sitting or something. Post some pics when you drop it!

Ya.. In low lighting they do look smaller then thay are, the outer flange on the RPF1's is pretty big and being matte black they blend with the tire, I thought about painting the outer lip red to break it up a bit, or getting them powder coated dark gray or gun metal, but I'll leave them black for a while. I like it!

That giant 2 1/2" wheel well gap doesn't help either :D

I was thinking the same thing about the rims looking small. I thought they were 15s. I noticed you have the Weather Tech floor liners. Talk about one of the best automotive investments ever. You were smart to get those right off the bat.
