Will Kazera KZ-D's fit on a Factory JCW?
 
Will the Kazera KZ-D in 17 x 7.5 +40mm fit over the Brembo 4-pot brakes on a 2009 Factory JCW?

Looking for a winter wheel......

I'm also contemplating the OEM R114 - but I'm kind of bummed that they only come in the regular silver unlike the two-tone R113 wheel.... and also the fact that they are 17 x 5.5......... and finding narrow tires in 17" seems kind of hard...

Lastly don't know if I should drop ~$250 per wheel for the OEM + the cost of the sensors..... For the same price of the rims I can get these Kazeras and winter tires mounted.....

I sent Alex an email already.....Hopefully will hear back from him soon as the cold weather will be coming soon here in NY......

I received them yesterday and.....they fit with no problem whatsoever! :thumbsup:

The color, however, is much lighter than the picture above.

I will take some pics this weekend in daylight. Perhaps my perception is skewed since I only saw them at night....

Car feels more planted with the wider offset and the tires definitely more comfy than the stock Continental summers.....

Woo hoo!
