OH MY GOD!
Who makes these wheels!?
I must know!

 

>>
sorry, still getting the hang of this web site
does anyone know who makes these wheels?

 

Those are made by NKB and as far as I know, not available in the states. But, Hamann makes a very similar wheel (PG4 or HM4). Also, those are 16", Hamann's are 17 or 18.

BTW.... I ordered a magnetic circular racing number for both doors (Black background w/ a Pure Silver #53 )

 

WATCH OUT FOR MAGNETIC SIGNAGE! it can, and probably will, leave a whitsh fog on your paint! It is VERY difficult to remove that for (think rubbing compound...ugh!) ! I did a test on my dark silver MCS, on the paint in the hatch well, and it DID leave a ghost after 3 days of contact. I also tried one with a layer of thin red sign vinyl and it too left a ghost. No not leave them on longer than a few hours, and less in hot and/or wet weather! They will also scratch the s%#t out of your paint if they shift and your car is not perfectly dust free. Bad news. That sucks because I too wanted to do that. I mounted my numbers (number11... that's one MORE than ten!) instead to a 1/16" thick sheet of lexan and I tape it to the inside of my rear windows when I need "numeration".

Waypoint - Absolutely beautiful! What size are your KDW-2's; 215/45/17? Any rubbing?

 

My new Rota Tarmac 17 x 7.5 shod with Goodyear Eagle F1. The wheels weigh 17.5 lbs a piece which is just about what the stock 16 x 6.5 R84 v-spokes weigh.

Mister_S --> 215/45-17, no rubbing, I'm running stock springs. The wheel/tire combo weighs in at 35lbs.

 

They look great D. I've been looking into
powder coating myself. Any problems when
you tighten the lugs with chipping??

The lugs have a key (a cylinder approx 4 inches long)... which enables you to tighten the nuts while they are recessed in the wheel.
If you look at the wheels striaght on.... you really can't see the lug nuts.... as they are ... recessed/hidden.
I got the powder coating for $40 per wheel (which is real cheap for NY) and no chipping problems at all...so far :smile:

Peace,
D
