Kopi Wheel Group Buy - 15",16",17" and 18"

[Spec]

/\ Agreed. I have dealt with Mel in the past and he has been a top-grade seller. I've been very satisfied and, as you see, am a repeat customer.

Mel I'm sending you a PM about shipping address.

16"

so is 16" alpinas kopis a regular thing that you will sell now? Or is it only with group buy? I dont see it listed on your site for the 16s. Just wondering, cause I would probably be in the next group buy for the 16 around next spring or summer.

Kopi wheels

The 16" size is a new size being added to our lineup for 2008.
We should receive our first shipment late Jan. early Feb. (Group Buy) as they only go into production in mid. January.
They will be priced somewhere between the 15" and 17" Kopi wheels.

not my thread, but found on bimmer forum about the Kopis. Anyone else had the same exact problem? Mel? anyone?

Is that what they look like in the hub? are they all like, they are made for 5 lugs with those indentation?

Is this a picture of the new 16?

if you open that picture with a little shading you'll see it's imprinted 17x7.5 -- dunno about your new pic, you changed it.

I didn't change anything - see the link.

Also look at the center of the nut, then look at the center of the wheel. I didn't order any, so maybe I should shut my trap.

Wow, those wheels in that thread are CRAP. Was looking at these too, but went with Ronals. Good thing, i'd be pissed if I spent that much cash on junk...

I thought they are suppose to be hubcentric... The ones in that picture looks worse than my tsws The drill holes arent even countered.

Yes they are counted. And yes they look ghetto as hell.

Kopi wheels

The wheels are not made for 5 lugs - the indentations have nothing to do with the number of lugs the wheels have.
In fact the indentations do not line up with the lug holes - they are designed that way.
There are 4 lug wheels and 5 lug wheels.
The center caps cover the lug nuts - they are not pictured above.
We supply the hubcentric rings at no charge if required.

Don't know why you're calling them crap - we've sold them for almost 6 years with no problems.
The wheels come in 4 lug and 5 lug and are not drilled but cast for each application.
The hubcentric rings matter has been addressed.

Those wheels off bimmerforums ARE junk. Kopi's quality has continued to go down hill since they were new. I've got pictures of the old 17x7.5's 4x100 and they aren't like that, whats happened here is Kopi got cheap and took an off the shelf 5x120 e30 M3 fitment wheel and just redrilled the POS for 4x100. If I had purchased a set of those and thats what showed up I'd deny the charge on my credit card in a heart beat.
