18x8 M011 or Enkei TS-V pictures

[inkedup]

New to the forum, bought a white 2020 CX-5 Touring AWD last weekend. I've narrowed my wheel options down to these two.

18x8 +45 gloss black Mazda M011


18x8 +35 gloss black Enkei TS-V


I'm looking for photos of these wheels mounted on a CX-5. I've been able to find 1 picture of a blue CX-5 with 18" M011 in the "show me your wheels" thread but that's it. The Enkei's only weigh 18.8 pounds which make them more tempting but I also want a somewhat stock look. Also if anybody wants to chime in on going with 235/60/18 over a 225/60/18 on an 8" wide wheel I'd love to hear your thoughts.

I’d go Enkei for the weight savings with the 235 tire.

I'd do the same.

What did you end up doing? Im thinking of a 235/60/18 on 18x8 +35 offset, but want to see if the community can confirm fit/no rubbing at full lock. Photos much appreciated!

This is a 9.5” wheel with a +35 offset. Actual rim sits flush to the fender, but included tire pic shows how fat the tire sticks out further from the rim.

So you ended up with RPF1s! I’m now considering 18x8 +35 RPF1s in silver with nitto nomad grappler 235/60r18

Any concerns for the RPF1s load capacity and do you know if it’s more/less than stock 19inch wheels?

FWIW
According to discount tire and others RPF1 18x8 +35 has a load capacity of 1521 lb. But i can’t find that value from Enkei sources (website, 2019 catalog).
From 2019 cx5 sig manual:
GAWR
Front axle - 2513 lb
Rear axle - 2293 lb
To get minimum wheel load capacity -> GREATEST GAWR/2 —-> 2513/2 = 1256.5

Given RPF1 18x8 +35 have 1521 lb load capacity, it seems that it can support the 2019 cx 5 signature’s weight limit.

Your set up looks great man!

You’re fine. I’ve had no issues with these wheels and deal with terrible Jersey roads.

You’ll love the weight savings. I’d say at least 10Lbs per Corner.

Mine's a '16.5. Running 18 x 8 Enkei (can't remember model designation) +40, with 245/55 Conti DWS06. Tire sidewall is flush to fender. CX is lowered on Eibachs, camber is 3/4* negative all around.
