Default Kosei RT Sport + Tire ?'s

Hey, i'm thinking about getting a set of these wheels. Does anyone have any experience with them, ideally a pic or two on a honda (preferably a civic). Also, anyone know where to buy them aside from tirerack.com? (not that there's anything wrong with tirerack, I just like to shop around).



If there pic doesn't work, here's the site

I'm looking at 15 x 6.5 for a red EK hatch. in terms of tire sizes which would you guys suggest, 195 x 50 or 195 x 55?

Thanks !

depending on how low u dropping your ride. If you like the slam look go for 5o series or else settle for 55 i've tried both and i like the looks of the 50 series i like the wheels something different from your normal ROTA's

Cool, thanks for the vote of approval on the RT Sport. If anyone wants a little more info on these, this tirerack page has some more info - http://www.tirerack.com/servle...ecial=

The other cannidates are Rota Attack or Battle in steel grey.

Anyone know if putting 195/60 tires on these would be too much of a no-no?

They're so much cheaper, so its tempting to order them instead.

I'm looking at Kumho ASX or a set of AST in 195/50

the right tire size for you would be 195-55-15 or 205-50-15 which ever is good. Also why are you getting all season tires for? In another post you are going to get winter tires so no need for all season. I would get the Kumho SPT instead you will be very happy with them!
