Any conical seat lug nut with 12x1.5 threads and with a 19mm or 21mm hex body should work with the RPF1s. The Zenki lug nuts are open ended and have a 19mm body, but when I stripped a lug nut at an autocross, I borrowed a closed end 12x1.5 lug nut with a 21mm body and it fit the RPF1 wheel (and the Evo stud) just fine.

Just to summarize what I've found, the 17" by 8 or 8.5's with the 35mm offset fit without spacers but require hubcentric rings, spline drive lugs, and center caps.

My other choice is the 17" OZ Superleggera's.

I'm a huge F1 fan and like supporting manufacturers who contribute to the sport.

Yea, but they dont make the RPF-1 in an 8.5 with +35 offset. Only in +30 or +40.

I'm trying to find anyone who has fitted the Enkei RPF-1 in 17x8.5 +40 on an EVO. Please reply or PM me if you have seen in person.

Who cares about the looks. I'm using the Enkei RPF1's for Track Purposes only with Race tires. They're super light weight and cheap. Best bang for your buck compared to running SSRs or the infamous Volk TE37s which is twice the price or more per rim. If I bought SSRs for Volks, I definitely would be running those on the street and never on the track if ya know what I mean.
