OLD/NEW School Enkeis! - Toyota Yaris Forums

1 piece wheels that are made to be lightweight, racing wheels, yes. But an old school wheel like the Enkei 92 - most 2 or 3 piece wheels were made with forged barrels/lips which result in lighter weight and more durability. So I'm guessing the original Enkei 92 will be a lot lighter than the re-makes.

I'm no expert, just what I've read on teh interwebz. Also just discouraged they would re-make a legendary wheel but make it a cheaper quality, 1 piece cast. It's like they are Rota'ing themselves. (yes, thats a verb now.)
