another 15x8 et20 wheel (Kosie k4r)

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

are you sure about that?

[jeremy5000]

Has anybody gotten these yet? I'm curious to see how they look because they are supposed to fit over the Massive race BBK.

waiting to hear back from a local guy with a tire rack account. going to just go with the 15x8 c1's and 225/45/15 hankook rs3's

Sorry but these wheels look like ghetto civic wheels, lightweight or not.

Sure, if you don't count concavity or spoke shape.

I was talking about the overall layout of the spokes but, yeah they are pretty different.

[Wh33lhop]

They look very similar to the c1's. The spokes just look evenly spaced instead of a split five spoke pattern.

You are crazy.

lol not the first time I have heard that. Still want to see them mounted up on a set of meaty, sticky tires.

[Wh33lhop]

And call me crazy

Tire Rack lists the 15x8 C1's at 14.6, 14.8, and 15# depending on the finish, so the K4R's are definitely lighter. And call me crazy, but I actually really like the looks of them. Would really like to see them actually on an E30.

You can view wheels on a vehicle on Tire Rack's site, but it usually doesn't do the wheels justice:

Does anyone actually know where/who makes them? There was rumor they were made by Enkei. Either way, at least both of these wheels are in an affordable price range for most. I never understood how people can buy wheels that are worth more than their cars!

The C1s are indeed made by Enkei IIRC.

50 series are pretty tall for lowered E30s

heres are RS3s on my late model

Too bad about the styling, I'd pay $200 a set more for lighter wheels made in Japan vs. the Chinese C1's.
