I checked the info on the Enkei website, the same wheels are available also in 18x8.5 +30 which would make it virtually identical to my wheels that the doesn't require any work on the fenders. However, they're only 8.5 rather than 9.5 (on Nils' car). I have not checked anybody about the availability of these things. Anyone has any info on them?

yeah, you cant run these wheels and be afraid of massaging/cutting your fenders.. not for the timid!
according to Robi these wheels are not currently available anymore in the states... not sure on specifics as to why.

If I am not mistaken, they are available but only in specific colors and such.
Sorry for digging up an old thread.
Just the same, nils, what did you do to the fenders, typical rolling and what not or something more involved? Im going to be painting in a nother 3-4 weeks and i want to roll the fenders before I paint them..just to make sure for the future.

NT03 Ms comes in 18x8.5 +38 offset. this setup will fit but the wheels will look sunken in abit. They do not offer 18x8.5 +30 offset.
NT03 RR (limited edition road race version) forged, no longer available. you might be able to find some used ones on yahoo auction in japan but thats once out of every blue moon.

try to get wheels and tires on car before you paint it.. way easier that way. you have to cut, roll and then massage the fenders, literally pull on them outwards etc. Lots of negative camber helps too.
the white wheels Robi has are pimp, wish I had $$ for them.
