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

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.

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).Randy Walters

UPDATE: Unfortuantely guys.... they are not et25 they are et27 and they DO include the hub rings, but they dont rub the strut housing, they have 205/50/15 on them!Comment

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.Randy Walters

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.
