Re: post up your Kosei K1's!!
So I just got my K1s from Tire Rack. 15x7, +35. Put them on my 90 CRX Si. Mounted up no problem, all looks good. Started to pull off & the part of the wheel where the wheel mates with the rotor/hub is grinding on the front calipers. Car has stock brakes. Tire Rack verified these fit the 90 CRX Si. Any one else have this problem? I even tried swapping the wheels around and they still rubbed.

Tire Rack included plastic rings, had them balanced and mounted yesterday but I'm getting some vibration above 50mph.
These are brand new K1's w/ brand new Kumho Ecsa XS tires.
I had zero vibration with my previous wheels/tires....

The plastic rings are to center the wheel on the hub, if you haven't tried putting those on to see if the vibration goes away id do that. I only used them in the front and not the rear but never had an issue. One of the weights might not be in the right spot on the wheel, and could be whats causing the problem.

Same specs I'm running on my integra.

The vibration isn't terrible, but it's definitely noticeable.
So pissed! I'm taking it back tomorrow to have the wheels rebalanced.
