    Kosei K1's 15x8 with 225/50 Hoosier R compunds. Right now suspension is IE Stage 3's with bilstein sports. I really need to switch to some coilovers.

    It was part of the group buy on here a while back, finally got around to putting it on. Anxious to get the rear on now.

          Those are 15x8's? They look like 17's!

          Nice looking car, for sure.

              Hmm, I should get those for street wheels.

                Only problem is they are et 40 so you need a hub centric ring and a spacer of at least 20 MM to clear the brakes.

                I pre bought mine back in November when they went on sale, I don't know if they have inventory remaining. What are you boing to run for a street tire?

                  I have a set of 17's now and was running BFG G-Force sport 235/40's on them but I had to put them on the 318ti so I could sell it. I'd like to sell the wheels I had and get something different, or just sell them and buy a trailer :mrgreen:

                    "boing" blunder fingers. That was the tire size I was suggested to run as well. I don't want to do Stretch 215's as I plan on using these for Track/Auto-X strictly.
