FS: 18x9 Kosei drag wheels with tires
 
these are the now discontinued 18" x 9" kosei wheels weighing about 17lbs mounted on 265/40/18 Mickey Thompson drag radials.

i compared the MTs to a brand new set and they have about 50% tread left before getting to the wear line. these can probably be used beyond the wear line though since they are for drags.

asking $700 for wheels and tires.

Will they fit c63?? do u know what is the offsets?

This is a good drag setup.... and the low-weight of the wheel is incredible: 17 lbs for 18" wheels. I know of a couple of people who used to run the same setup with great results :y

yup they are a nice and light drag setup and i was able to get the current cls record with those on the car. if i had more time to practice with them i could have hit some 1.6x 60' times.

im not too sure if they would fit a C63 but they work fine on the E class.
the offset is +38

That set up is money! We used the same set up and cut a 1.5 60' :bow:

i need more practice, if i could have cut a 1.5 60' i may have hit the high 10s!

Are these wheels the same as tirerack kosei sales for $200 a piece?

jikjak 05-19-2010 01:14 PM

im not sure what tire rack sells for 200 a piece but i do know that they no longer carry any of them in 18" size or even in our bolt pattern, apparently they have been discontinued for a while now.

Are you including the bolts and hubcentric rings?

jikjak 05-19-2010 02:39 PM

sorry, no bolts or rings included.

the hubcentric rings were not needed when i used them and i used the bolts from my aftermarket rims to mount them.

bump bump!

jikjak 05-26-2010 04:10 PM

to the top!!!

bassn_07 05-27-2010 01:15 AM

I can't believe anyone hasn't jumped all over these yet. They no longer make the rim and it weighs only 17 lbs....:eek:. I have had some great luck with these tires and cut some solid mid 1.6's.

Good luck T on the sale and here's a bump for a stand up guy!

jikjak 05-29-2010 03:33 PM
