    My direct-fit 15x7 K1s are ET27 and came with 57.1mm plastic centering rings to make them hubcentric to the 57mm hub. The centerbore in the actual wheel is much larger than the car's hub.

    Do your K1's centerbore opening fit snugly onto the car's hub without using plastic centering rings?

      Randy, you have the older version. (I have a set too). The newer are ET25 with correct centerbore.

        Wow that's even better! Kosei should have done that in the first place.

        My ET27's caused the inner sidewall to slightly rub on the front strut tube (when using 225/50-15 race tires) and i actually made some thin 2mm spacers to prevent this. And those plastic centering rings would get stuck on the front hubs (too much braking heat apparently).

            That's not really unfortunate, they're still great wheels and work just fine. Tons of us used the ET27 when they first came out like a dozen years ago (street, track, autocross, etc). They're strong yet very light.

            My strut rubbing was only an issue when running very wide race tires (and the rubbing was very slight scuffing and not actually a problem) but that won't happen with street tires - especially with the narrower 205/50 tires. The centering rings work fine too for street use and do a perfect job of centering the wheels to the hub. No worries using these wheels.

                  Oh, with tires is a smoking deal. I would have given these a serious thought if I had not picked up a new set of wheels last month.
