airjordan223 Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 those dont look much different from the ones you have. whats the weight difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humphries Posted March 3, 2008 Author Share Posted March 3, 2008 mine are lighter (11lbs) and the koseis are 15.5 lbs lbs but the koseis are 16s and 7.5'' wide so better traction. good job zimmy.. not sure if i even want these anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zimmy709 Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 pretty big weight difference in the 15's vs 16's mine are (i believe) 13.3lbs as opposed to the 16's at 15.5lbs. What color are the kosei's now? and i do really like the ones you have on there now. nice thing about the kosei's though is that they are shot peened. Also what tires are coming on them? just curious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humphries Posted March 5, 2008 Author Share Posted March 5, 2008 changed my mind since when i got the wheels off the guy's car.. 2 had flat tires, 1 was bent horriby on the inside from sitting sideways attatched to the car with a broken LCA. they had crap tires but they were better than my tires i have on. i cleaned my car yesterday and i just cant get rid of my wheels.. i'll have to buy some if i want them. for now.. tires are in the near future... most likely yokohama parada spec-2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

compuvision02 Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 mine are lighter (11lbs) and the koseis are 15.5 lbs lbs but the koseis are 16s and 7.5'' wide so better traction. Since when do bone stock vehicles need different wheels width wheels and better tires then manufacturers specifications for optimal handling? lol Either way you look at it, going with a wider wheel for "traction," is stupid. You want more grip straight line? You don't have the horsepower, let alone the torque, to need it, plus it won't matter if it is still on a street tire. You want more grip around the corners? Hello stock suspension! Hello body roll! Hello understeer! So at the end of the day, you are getting different wheels because you can't afford new tire for your current wheels.

wannaBstuntin Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 So at the end of the day, you are getting different wheels because you can't afford new tire for your current wheels. I think he knows this Rob. Btw, you don't have to have a powerful car to want better traction. Rain? Snow? But I do agree with you that Ben could do other things. He should buy a good set of tires in the first place instead of worrying about wheel sizes, because they don't mean s*** if your tires suck a** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
