I've considered selling my Kosei K1's. 17x7.5 and 5x100. I have six total; 4 white and 2 silver. 1 silver has some slight curb rash from a taco bell drive-thru. These are lightweight wheels weighing in at just above 16 lbs. apiece. I would consider $500 for all six. I would prefer not to ship, but I am willing if the buyer will pay shipping. Two of the white k1's have tires mounted that will need to be replaced. I may have them dismounted before shipping to reduce cost. I'm located about 40 miles east of Indianapolis. I hate to part with these because they are no longer listed in this bolt patter on Tirerack, so I might keep these mounted with winter tires. Again, this is a feeler and, as of yet, undecided. If pics don't show, they are in my profile under the 2002 bright red cavalier. Let me know what you think. Thanks.

A more accurate observation has never been typed. These should be the starting points before any serious performance modification. What's the point of making a serious performer if you can't control it's power?

What are the tires like on the other 4 wheels?
There are none. Just wheels. offset is +35mm, btw.

wish they werent 17's or they would have sold in a heart beat.
That's what I keep running into. Good for a daily driver or auto-x. I ran 225/45/17 tires. They might appear larger with a 215/45/17 tire, thus having a smaller sidewall.

Props to Brian for being an excellent buyer. I hope you enjoy the wheels, man. They served me well, and I hope they continue to do the same for you.
