Had mine since the beginning of April. One of the first sets sold. LOVE em. These are the wheels that Enkei customer rep King help get for our Cobalts. They weren't going to make them for us originally. Lots of emails and phone calls to King and it happened. Email King at Enkei and say "thank you".

The PF01s are lighter... and I liked the curved spokes over the straight spokes...
You want black just get them powdercoated which I am thinking of doing myself! But don't know

I speak from experience when I say that if you are lowered, they will rub.
Star specs run large
I know someone who was looking into it.
You obviously need an oven large enough to bake an 18x8 wheel...
....which they are surprisingly large

245/40/18 Star specs

If you're doing a simple color all you need is an oven and a gun along with the powder.

They're really not THAT much larger than the stock Contis. In fact in some ways they're smaller. Go to Tire Rack and compare tire specs with some other tires. I'm at stock height, which I plan to stay at, and they're fine. with one insignificant problem. When backing into my driveway which is a slight uphill, the right front corner has more weight on it than the left and clicks one time and then is fine. And ONLY in reverse with the wheels at full lock to the right. It's not even enough to cause me to pull the wheel to see why. I suspect it has something to do with when I had to pull all the inner panels off to install the CAI. Maybe put one of the panel edges back in outside the groove in the other. But like I say. Not enough to worry me at all. If the car is lowered? I would say you'd be OK except in a full lock condition. Then again. It would depend on how much you're lowered. You'll never know for sure till somebody actually tries it.
Sometimes the internets, is wrong(gasp!
)On Pedders they rubbed on 2 different cars, and on sportlines they rubbed, primarily in the rear.
Maven and I aren't making it up.
Just sayin'
And a 245/40/18 Star Spec is taller than the stock tires.
245/35/18 would be closer to stock...but Dunlop doesn't make star specs in that size.
