Enkei NVR5 in 18×9.5 +38, 5×114.3, 75mm bore, Gunmetal. A clean 5-spoke design from Enkei’s NVR line, produced using Enkei’s MAT (Most Advanced Technology) high-pressure casting process. The +38 offset is a street-friendly, stock-arch compatible specification for the majority of common 5×114.3 performance platforms. 25.5 lbs (approximately 6.4 lbs per wheel). Ships fast across Canada and the US.

Enkei NVR5 — Design and Positioning

The NVR5 is Enkei’s 5-spoke design within their NVR (New Vehicle Racing) lineup — a modern, slightly concave 5-spoke profile positioned between Enkei’s aggressive motorsport-derived designs and their purely street-oriented models. The NVR5’s clean spoke geometry and Gunmetal finish give it broad aesthetic compatibility across a wide range of 5×114.3 performance platforms.

Enkei MAT Technology — Cast Construction

The NVR5 uses Enkei’s MAT (Most Advanced Technology) high-pressure casting process:

• High-pressure casting: Controlled high-pressure injection and cooling rates produce a denser aluminium grain structure than conventional low-pressure or gravity casting — a structurally stronger cast wheel with thinner cross-sections and lower weight for the same integrity.
• Weight efficiency: At approximately 6.4 lbs per wheel for an 18×9.5, the NVR5 achieves competitive weight for a cast wheel at this size. Enkei’s OEM manufacturing background means dimensional consistency and production quality exceed typical aftermarket cast wheel suppliers.

18×9.5 at +38 — Street and Mild Track Fitment

The +38 offset on an 18×9.5 is a moderate-high, street-friendly specification compatible with stock arches across most common 5×114.3 platforms:

• Nissan 350Z / 370Z: 18×9.5 +38 fits within stock arches on the Z33 and Z34. 245/40R18 or 255/40R18 are common tyre choices.
• Mitsubishi EVO X: Within the comfortable stock-arch range for the CZ4A. A popular track day and time attack fitment.
• Subaru WRX / STI (5×114.3 — GR/GV/VA): Compatible with stock arches. Confirm VA (2015+) fitment with your specific suspension setup and tyre width.
• Subaru BRZ / Toyota GR86 (ZD8/ZN8): 9.5" width at +38 is on the wider end for stock arches — 245/40R18 typically fits without arch rolling on stock suspension. Confirm with your specific build.
• Hyundai Genesis Coupe: 5×114.3 platform with compatible fitment range for 18×9.5 +38.

Gunmetal — Finish

Enkei’s Gunmetal is a dark grey finish with cool, flat undertones — darker and less metallic than the Dark Hyper Silver variant, with no silver particle depth. Gunmetal reads as near-black in low light and as a distinct dark grey in direct sunlight. It’s a versatile choice for builders who want a darker wheel without committing to gloss or matte black:

• Pairs well with white, red, silver, and dark-coloured exteriors where a contrasting dark wheel adds visual weight without being as stark as flat black.
• A lower-maintenance finish than polished or machined surfaces — less sensitive to brake dust staining and easier to keep clean than bright metallic finishes.

Hub Bore — 75mm

The NVR5 562-895-6538GM has a 75mm hub bore. Hub centric rings are required for all common 5×114.3 fitments:

• Nissan 350Z / 370Z / S-chassis: 66.1mm — requires 66.1–75mm rings
• Mitsubishi EVO X: 67.1mm — requires 67.1–75mm rings
• Subaru WRX / STI (5×114.3): 56.1mm — requires 56.1–75mm rings
• Hyundai Genesis Coupe: 67.1mm — requires 67.1–75mm rings

Cast aluminium — Enkei MAT Technology. 75mm bore — hub centric rings required (not included). +38 offset — stock-arch compatible on most 5×114.3 platforms. Gunmetal finish. Tyres not included.
