Default 17x7.5 Kosei K1s

Hey!
Does anyone know how much Kosei k1s in the 17x7.5 variety weigh?
I am thinking about getting the white ones, which tirerack is selling at 149 a pop.
Does anyone have pictures of white k1's on a silver teg?
Do you guys think this would look good?
Thanks
maclean

I would think there would be a clearance problem...I am not sure but my 15s are pretty close to my lower control arm so you would probably need spacers...just so you know what you are getting into before you buy those rims...someone correct me if I am wrong

DAMN, is your wheels turned in? Or do you have that much camber up front?

What's wrong with - 40 deg. of camber?? j/k

Lowered that much, I bet a camber kit (back to factory spec) would cause clearance problems. I don't know about the Comptech springs, though. What's the drop on them? If that low/tucked Integra above doesn't have LCA clearance issues, though, I doubt it'd be a problem. Regardless, TireRack is usually pretty accommodating and would probably help you out, if you ran across any trouble.

Good luck. I love the K-1's and plan to get some 16's, someday.

yeah there can be a problem with clearance w/ camber kits. my car was slammed on 17's w/ camber kit and the guy doing the alignment said i have *this* much space before it would hit (very little). he said something about cutting out something or something (hehe i wasn't paying much attention). i just raised it up a little more so it wouldn't be a problem.
