According to the Enkei site, the RPF-1's will come in black for '04: Enkei

I agree on the Enkei RPF1, they are quite light for the money.
I have Enkei RS-5s, and with Falken Z1-EX they were ~1 lbs lighter than the stock Advans with stock Enkeis (digital bathroom scale).
I'm thinking of selling my stock wheels/tires and powdercoating a set of the RPF1 for my everyday wheels. I think they aren't very attractive, but I don't care that much, and I think if they were dark gunmetal or flat black they would look better. I wish they came in a darker color! Alternately, I may sell my Enkei RS-5 and keep the stock wheels.
To get comparable weight wheels, probably need to spend 100-200 more at this point. Perhaps other choices will be available soon?
Take care,

Good point. Not what I was hoping for, whough I would like to see what it would look like anyway.
