Enkei Wheels For Sale

On the car.

Michael,
I'm interested. Can you tell me what is the back spacing for them. Has there been aany damage to them? What calipers are you using? I am concerned about clearance issues as I have Willwoods. Do they leak at all?

I raced a Pantera with Enkai's 8 & 10s X 15" back in the late '80s, and they are not true three-piece wheels as you might guess from the appearance. Instead, the parts were welded together to make a very light ONE-PIECE wheel. Still fragile when curbed or run thru big potholes but no leaks. Such wheels are not repairable, either. They cleared stock, Gr-3 and aftermarket calipers (we ran that car a LONG time), as long as the rotors were stock diameter; rotor width made no difference.

Mark,

Both fronts and rears have 4" of backspacing. My '74 had stock calipers on it. Only one of the rear rims has a slight nick on the very outter lip of the outside of the rim that can be easily corrected. I doubt it would even be seen (in it's current state) once a tire is mounted. The outter lip of the inside of the same rim has a couple of nicks. Those wouldn't even be seen with a tire mounted being that they're on the inside and under the car. However, they can all be fixed. Keep in mind that these wheels are probably about 15+ years old, so they aren't perfect, but they are in very good condition. A good cleaning will really wake them up. I doubt that they leak as they are welded together.

I bought them from a fellow member of this board (Bob Timma?). The front wheels in the picture of my red '74 are 7", and came on the car when I bought it (along with the 10" rears). They stuck under the front fender too much, so I searched for the wider fronts. When I found them, the owner would not break up the set, so I bought all 4. I never got them on the car because I bought my 5-S and sold the '74 the way it was. Therefore, I cannot attest to the way they behave, but the previous owner told me they were straight, or I wouldn't have bought them.

I'll have to pass. I need more than 4" backspace on the rears. I know that there will be a tire/fender conflict on the left rear.
Thanks

No problem. I did have one on mine with 295/50/15's.

I meant to put I DIDN'T have one, not did. (Missed that one.)

I'm going to put these wheels on eBay this week. Does anybody have an offer to make on them?

Michael

Any idea how much to ship to Berkeley, CA?

I'll take them if we can work out the cost incl. shipping. Thanks

Thanks, Michael, the check is in the mail.
