Hello,

I have searched for the right set of wheels and I think I found two sets that I like, both of them are by Enkei Racing, 18x7.5 around 17 lbs. I am looking for the Style recommendation. Thoughts? #1 or #2

For 7.5 width, what would be the best size tire?

You are right, they are not chrome, just have the glossy finish.

I'll be the odd man out and say the RP03's. I prefer wheels where the spokes touch the outside rim. Personal preference, but either would be sweet...

+1

...and the solid spoke makes for easier cleaning.

I've always been a fan of #1, but I think #2 would be a nice change...
Many have #1 already... I prefer to be different and go with #2.

Both wheels are very nice...can't go wrong with either...

For a 7.5" tire, I would go with a 225/45 or 225/40.

I like number two. Looks better and less tacky than one. Just my .02 cents.

I think the look of the second fits our cars better.
