    another 15x8 et20 wheel (Kosie k4r)

    About to get a set of hankook rs-3's and trying to find the right wheel to mount them on. I want a 15x8 with a +20 offset. Tirerack now was the kosie k4r in this sizing. At only 13.1 lbs and $149 a piece...hmmmm

      Not really feeling the appearance of those to be honest! The weight is nice though.

          not sure if im feeling the look either, but that doesnt look like a rwd fitment wheel in the preview. If the wheel had a little more lip it would be more appealing. But 13.1 lbs paired with some rs3's

            You will not notice the extra 2lbs weight savings. IMO you are paying 50% more for wheels that will look like anus, and wheel weight bragging rights. But I do suppose I am biased. :p

              The wheel shown is not an ET20 thou. You might want to call Tire Rack and see where the spokes sit if you plan to do any different brake setups.

                      I'm pretty sure the trms are 13lbs, no? While the 15x7s are around 11-12?

                        Anyone got a pic of the actual et20 wheel?? I am sure the center and spokes will be positioned further in a lot more than the one posted above

                          RS3's like a like a small "stretch" as well... +20 on an 8" rim will allow you run a 225/50 RS3 with fender work...

                            Last time I checked, you couldn't get an RS3 in 225/50, only 225/45.

                              You are correct, 225/50 for my 16" rims... i was being selfish again. Forgot that we are working with 15x8 rims.
