Why? Mine clip into the rim and since I installed them, its been like you were never there.Originally posted by rwh11385Comment

because i broke 3 screwdrivers trying to get them off....and half the time they go flying and can cause injury or damage.
when i put my steelies on and they fit perfect and go directly on, i was like "aaaahh, excellent". hence why team dynamics pwn j00Comment

But why do you have to take them off anyways? Might are plastic anyways, I guess you had metal ones. I don't see any danger unless you are a fetus laying on the ground and it hits you.Comment

why not just wait to see what the new kosei is like? or is it already out?
As time went on, the factory developed the car each year, making it faster, more comfortable, and capable of handling at higher speeds.
You don’t want this. You want the trickiest, most dangerous, oldest model you can find. Only then can you prove to the world that you’re a man.Comment

Good. Kosei K1's are weak, especially when running lower profile slicks.
I have never seen a perfectly straight K1 after a couple track days and a few gators later.

Spoke with Tire Rack yesterday morning and they are in fact discontinued by Kosei. When I spoke to the rep they had 27 16x8.5 ET 27 (blanks) in stock. I need to get some ordered before they are gone, but they want $199 a wheel.Originally posted by Simon S

Hmm . . .
A guy was offering to buy my Koseis, then changed his mind saying that Tire Rack told him they WOULD get more.
Oh well. Didn't really want to sell them anyway.Current Cars2014 M235i2009 R56 Cooper S1998 M31997 M3Comment

So I guess my plastic ones are better, since they don't stick.Originally posted by rwh11385Comment

The metal ones DO stick. At least on Heeter's car. We changed his front left wheel bearing at work. To change it, we had to take off the ring to put on the new hub. They were stuck pretty hard on there. The tech that did it was prying it off with a screwdriver and it FLEW off and hit him in the forehead lol. It made a small cut and it actually bled a little bit hahahhaa. We made fun of him for it.
