Well I've been trying to find a 15" wheel that is cheap and light. I was set on getting the SSR knockoffs, until I realized they only make them in four lug and 5 by 100

I want to stay away from rota's if I possibly can, so what are our options?

I searched. All I came up with was the Final Speeds that Leo is selling and the 15 by 7 rotas.

 

Heel Toe auto has the final speeds as well.

other than that? team dyamics (search darkteg's threads)

Rotas (15x6.5 at most in 5 lug i believe)

 

I read his thread which he stated 500 euros. But how much is that in usd?

 

the team dynamics are available for about 115 USD each. they have a us distributor too.

The guy to talk to is Don, so i was told by descartesfool on this board.

 

Thank you Chris! I think I've found my wheel. On heeltoeauto.com's site it says that the 15 by 7 final speeds are only available in 4 by 100

 

You might want to talk to the heeltoe dude on this site.... i think his name his mrheeltoe or something like that.

Chris - who knows people own them 15x7 5 lug final speeds....

Just curious, but why? Looks? or misguided beliefs on their quality?

 

Nope....just because every ricer in town has a set and I'm trying to stay away.

And also because I would prefer 15 by 7

 

Used buddy clubs?

So people are ricers for buying cheap, light and decently strong wheels. Interesting arguement.

I just got my ebay k1's in today :D im a happy man

500 shipped for 15's wiht brand new yoko avses100's

***** yeah!

ebay is my friend.

jdmspoonitr i will let u know this week about the oil, and I thought you were going to just put more money into track time instead of more **** for ur car?

 

I didn't say they were ricers because they bought the wheels. It's just that all the ricers have them. Maybe if you lived where I live then you would get the point. I don't want wheels that I see on every other beat up civic with primered hoods and cheap bodykits that are hanging off the car.

If I lived somewhere other than here I wouldn't mind rota's at all. But I am dead serious when I say every other car has them. No joke. Didn't mean to offend anyone.

Bob- that's exactly what I'm doing. All the things I have bought recently were meant for the track. First the seats so I don't slip around everywhere. With the seats I had to get a rollbar or else I won't pass tech. And now I'm looking for some wheels to trash in the winter and take to the track. Also just got a Bell M2 from Victor so I don't have to borrow a helmet. And the last thing I need are my harnesses and I'm good to go!

 

I did not say rota owner = ricer
I said ricers in my area all have rota's.

The two statements are not equal. Just like saying rota = cheap wheel doesn not necessarily mean that every cheap wheel = rota.

Does everyone understand this now?

 

Kosei K1's are a good deal all around.

 

Get Kosei K1's and paint them whatever color turns your crank.

I was thinking about buying white ones and painting them black since the silver ones are no longer available. Any differnece in painting the white ones? It seems pretty simple unless someone wants to correct me on that

 

I saw austins painted k-1's they look fine to me

and even if you have a half *** paint job. they will be fine consider their should be brake dust on them.

i will prolly keep em stunna white for the time being

 

Let's show some respect to the threadstarter and keep this thread on topic, so it does not have to get the .

Thanks.

BTW, I vote for Kosei K1s.

 

Thanks everyone. I lucked out and found some 15 by 7 Kosei K1's . They are almost brand new. Going to pick them up tonight. By the way...anyone know if they'll clear the spoon calipers?

The 38 offset will , but the 45 will not

 

1 euro = +- 1 dolar
