hey randy how much did you lower your car? also do you know if i can get the kosie K1's in the black color? is it any extra and are these whells strong enough for street use? also do you know thw weight of the factoy whell???thanks again and sorry for asking you the same questions over and over again but you are the only one who seems to reply,
thanks again wayne
I've tried so many different kinds of springs, i
lost track of how much my car was lowered but i'd
say it's modest - about 1.5" all around.The Kosei K1 is only available in silver or white,
but they can probably be painted or powder coated
any color you like :-) Mine came with a coat of
wax so they hose off nicely, but it would have to
be stripped before painting.
They're plenty strong enough for track or street
use. They're not hubcentric, but they came with
plastic/nylon centering rings which seem to do a
good job of centering the wheels.
The stock OEM E30 14x6½ Basketweave (BBS or
Lemmer) weigh 14.0 lbs, and the stock OEM E30
14x6 Bottlecaps weigh 16½ lbs. 14" tires weigh
less than 15" tires BTW.
