Don't blame you. Wonder if there's any good 215/45 or 215/50?

Not sure they might have to check it out again .

Anybody know what the equivalent of the 225/45/16 and/or 205/50/16 would be in 15inch tires, looks wise??

I don't have an answer but that car is menacing!!! Makes me almost wish I had gotten black, though with this drought I would have gone crazy not being able to wash the car as much as dark-colored cars need.

 

[Kip2MyLou]

Exactly why I want the specs. Haha. Want to look like that. Have everything but the stance. I think he's lowered though which I'm debating being in the city and all unfortunately

That's not the same set up. The first post is a fatter tire. Think he said 205/60. The picture I posted isn't. At least I'm pretty sure it's not.

Hey guys, sorry for the delay. Kip, in that photo 15X6.5 Sparco on 195/60R15 Hankook on H&R springs, no rubbing, combined weight around 34 lbs wheel + tire!

Thanks. Is that the same set up as the first picture in the first post of this thread?

And you plan on going wider any time soon?

No, the first pic in the thread is like 205/60, I do not recommend it. I might go wider if I can find some 16X7 or 8 that I like.

Didn't think so. And same here.

Thanks for the responses.

[MENTION=382]airjor13[/MENTION] need moar pics. the 60 height is surprising. I assume your speedo is quite a bit off from actuality as I believe 50 would be the correct size?

 

[tjmccart]

Those of you who know what these are, will know how excited I am to pick these up 😁

16x7.5 et43 Kosei K1's. There are only a handful of these around in 4x108 and they will be in my possession sometime next week.

Any recommendations on tire size? I was thinking 215/45/16.

60 is definitely not recommended, made the gearing taller, sluggish acceleration. 195/55R15 is perfect rolling diameter, same as stock.

The white lettering on the tire came like that or you painted it?

So jealous. I've been a fan of K1s for as long as I can remember. They have stood the test of time. [emoji106][emoji106]
