Re: Enkei RPF 1 15x7 vs 949racing 15x8 on B13
Are 15x7 949's not an option for you? Cheaper than the Enkei's and almost as light. If I fall back in love with my B13 I'll be going the route of 15x7 949's.

These are the first generation 6UL's so they are +40, but I have a 5mm spacer in the rear.

If you are considering other sized 6UL's, I have 15x7.5 6ul's on the NX with Hyperco's and CSK/AGX's. With 205/50-15 no issues at all, in fact I am looking to mount up a set of 225/45-15 RS2's I have in teh garage for the summer season. There seems to be plenty of room, and I will report back once done.

I wonder why its a "must" to buy the x8s? Is there an advantage to these than the x7s? Or is it more cause of looks and preference? In the "racing"world, which would be better? I absolutely loved my 205/50 direzza's when I had my 15x7" drag dr20s

All thing equal, a wider wheel puts more tire on the pavement, and will be faster. 205 on a 7 is great, it may be a tad stretched on an 8. 225 on 8 is perfect, but you may have issues with that fitment on a B13.

Hum... I presume the 7.5's will work similarly with the same suspension on a B13 Sentra? Do you have the Gen 3's, or similar offset to the Gen 3s? That sounds like a winning deal, I just need to make sure they will work!

Edit: Blerg, just spent way longer than I care to admit trying to find the definitive rim fitment thread with BABK's. I found a remnant posted on the B15 forum which said 15x8 6ULs will clear the 11" Fastbrakes kit. Anyone know if the 15x 7/7.5's will fit?
