Your worst nightmare...
Anybody interested in some 16.8 Lbs Kosei's

Just thought i'd run it by you guys...Since the bison will be traded in, all the racing goodies have to be gone. They are 18x8 and ONLY weight 16.8 lbs...can't beat that. Specially made for the E55. They are still boxed as it left the warehouse, never got to try them out.

A Prius because I'm green
I would prefer 18x9 so I can put a 265 in the rear instead of a 245 which fits on the 18x8 but I can't seem to find them anywhere. How much tirerack has these on sale for 220 a piece right now?

I believe they recommend a 255 for the 8 but since it's only 265 it would fit fine with these. Tirerack only has these, not the 18x9.

I run 17x9's on the Crossfire and have Hoosier 315/35 17's on them that work perfectly. I also used to run 295/30 19's on the factory 9'' wide rims................but wouldn't recommend it for "legal" perposes.

18x9 was discontinued, you will have to find a used set

Is all the hardware included? The hub-centric (not sure what it's called) and all 10 bolts?
