Just received my set in the mail but I'm missing three of the little screws that hold the center caps on. Anybody else have this issue? Guess I'll reach out to Konig and see if they'll send me some spares.

That's crazy man. I believe it though. Seems like everything is in short supply.

You can get those exact set screws from any True Value, and most likely the warehouse stores as well.
But yeah, if you can wait, see if Konig will priority mail them to you.

I bought extras from True Value, but I don't have the part number any more.

*Be sure to check the boxes and plastic bags they put the wheels in thoroughly, since some of mine fell out of the little bubble wrap envelopes they put the center caps/stickers, set screws and allen keys in.

Thanks! If anybody knows the part number that would be much appreciated otherwise I will probably be able to figure it out. I'm getting my tires mounted Thursday and am very excited to see how this setup is gonna look on the car!

When I first got tires mounted on mine, the tire shop guy told me one screw was missing from the box—I just assumed he had lost one of them, but I hadn’t actually counted them in the box, so I didn’t say anything. Your post makes me glad I didn’t.
I sent several emails to Konig, but never received a response. I eventually just bought a used center cap (with screws) off of EBay.
Hopefully Konig responds to you.

215/45R16 Federal Evolution ST-1 on stock struts and Eibach springs. These are a much better ride than the factory setup and are quite grippy! I haven't had any rubbing yet and don't expect to unless I'm really pushing it.

Hi everyone, first post here. I’ve currently got my ST running Dekagrams with 215/45 Federal ST1 tires. (Lowered on Mountune springs.)I’m not happy with the tires as they are too soft in the canyons when you push them. The handling is also slightly diminished. The turn in isn’t as immediate as it was, but maybe that’s because of going to 16s from 17s. Regardless, I really want to get these characteristics back.

Anyways, i’m having trouble choosing a new set. I’m torn between:

215/45 RT615k+
205/45 Hankook RS4

or just choosing something that’s more reasonable but still a great performer:

205/45 Continental ECS
205/45 BFG SC2

I’m in AZ so weather and lack of heat aren’t a big deal. Tire noise isn’t either, as my car will drown it out. This car is shared with my track Miata as a daily.

Given what I’m after, which route would you take?

I didn’t notice a huge decrease on turn in like you reported moving to 16x8 on BFG SC2s. I’m wondering about the sidewall stiffness on the ST1s. That could make a difference in the softness you were feeling under load.

That must be the problem. The tire is quite cheap but I heard a lot of positive reviews about them, so I gave them a shot. To be fair, they perform admirably everywhere except in hard driving situations. Maybe I’m just spoiled by my Falkens on my Miata.

How do you like your SC2s?

 

[dudhunter]

Grip is good, zero roll from the tire under hard cornering. Handling is predictable. I’m in LA so temps are never very low. They aren’t the stickiest tire I’ve ever driven but the rubber is quiet and wears pretty well.

215/45-16 RT660s, which I am now somewhat sorry I did not go with instead of the 225/45-17 A052s for my Dekas (for fear of rubbing, even on factory suspension), given that they are only ~ .10" narrower in tread width, but ~0.5" lower overall diameter.

 

[Bizzareo]

What tires are most people running on stock suspension? I see lots of people on springs or coilovers, but not many on stock suspension. Looking for something that fills up the wheels wells. Seems like my options are 205/50/16 or 215/45/16.

Hankook RS4's on my set. I had hypergrams and sold them for dekas so I could fit these tires.

I was going to PM you about those tires, you're the only one running them in this thread that I can tell. How are you liking them? Do you daily the car?

Anyone have recommendations for a BBK that would work well with the Dekagrams? Looking for people with some experience with the particular kit rather than a list of options.

I was looking at VMAXX but there seem to be some issues with the kit.
