    New Hweels (like Stewie would say it)

    Got me some 15x7 Kosei K1s and i like 'em so far!!

    Got these to replace my 16x7 BBS RKs because the K1s are lighter and cheaper.

    So anyone wanna buy my RKs?

    So here is my car:














    yes yes i know the body sucks, i need a paint job, a new door, some welding on the rear valence.... But that will all happen this summer.

    And one more thing: Yay or Nay on the stickers? (not talking about the bar code, i need that to cross the Susquehanna.)

            Freakin' sweet!! what size tires and what suspension are you running?

            It sure is a big improvement, especially in the handling department.

                  I just put a set of those on my IX the other day with some new Michelin Pilot Exalto PE2's. What offset are yours? Mine are et27's and they just clear my fenders with about 3-4mm to spare. I love how much lighter they are over my old wheels.

                      i believe i have the same offset as yours. It looks like i can even put 5mm spacers on mine

                          I've got 225 50 falken 512s and m3 h&r sports
                          Its really to much tire for the 318 to push but they look good, 225 45 would be better
                          I've been watching your cars progress keep up the good work
                          We should meet up some time

                            DUUUWWWIIITT!

                            Stick those things out further. The K1's look awesome when they're pokin' out the sides. IX hubs stick out almost 20mm further than an IS, so I didn't need spacers. :p

                              it looks good. theres something nice about having a car thats not perfect. you can thrash the shit out of them and have more fun. you could clean up a few rough edges and have a great driver.
