The Enkei RPF1 is one of the most demanded and popular [http://f1wheelandtyre.com.au wheels] within the racing industry. In 1986 Enkei became actively involved in motorsports by supplying 3-piece wheels to the F1 team, Minardi. In 1995 Enkei became an official supplier for team McLaren, which took championships home in 1998 and 1999. This team won four consecutive championships from 1996 to 1999. In racing there are no compromises as well as the passion to increase performance is rarely ending. Enkei's involvement at the highest degrees of competition enables engineers to utilize their technology on the ultimate test.

The Enkei RPF1 wheels have been developed from Grand Prix experience and feature lightweight with extreme strength combined for a street and circuit wheel of the highest quality. Enkei has also developed a new manufacturing process to produce the following generation aluminum wheels. One From The Most Advanced Technology (M.A.T) combines one-piece cast wheel technology having a rim forming technology called spinning process. Using this new technology of casting and rim forming by M.A.T process, the information property and strength in the wheels is improved upon drastically. Rim-Rolled technology shapes the rim to boost material elongation with out sacrificing the wheels hardness.

Direct to the racetrack to the street, M.A.T. Technology features forged processes at a lower cost. Enkei also supplies enkei wheels to teams that race inside Japan GT Championship, Super Taikyu, Formula Drift, Time Attack/Super Lap Battle, World Rally, SCCA, and D1 Drift. Enkei RPF1 Wheel Features:

1. Mat Process: Shaping through the MAT process reduces wheel weight by 10%-15%. Every pound of unsprung weight savings has the result of reducing overall vehicle weight by 20lbs.

2. F1 Replica: Enkei is definitely an official supplier in the McLaren Mercedes Formula One Team. The RPF1 was developed using the same technology as the Formula One race wheel.

3. Twin Spokes: Enkei's dual open stance spoke design is used for the McLaren Mercedes Formula One race wheel. The twin spokes achieve better stress dispersion on curves, hard braking, and extreme race driving.

4. Centre Design: Enkei's pocket design around the bolt a circle increases rigidity and keeps the wheel cooler during aggressive race driving.

Enkei established its very own test standard called "Spec-E," that's tougher than JWL requirements. Enkei's Spec-E test setting requires a higher drop point inside impact make sure 20% more cycles to the rotary bending fatigue and dynamic radial fatigue tests than JWL standards. The Spec-E represents Enkei's confidence in the technology and excellence of Enkei wheels.
