Okay, I got the KZ-A 18" on the ride, they look great. I was disappointed in the width of the rear lip, Only 1.5 to 1.75 inches depending on how you look at it. But the rims are very well engineered and finished very wheel. I got chrome rims and they did a very nice even job of chroming them. I will post a pic or two later tonight.

nice pic frostyroc

kind of hard to tell from that shot though- is the black used on the rim a matte/flat black, or more of a gloss black?

They're more of a matte/flat black. I'll get a pic of mine up if it ever stops raining!

PK6s have a very wide lip, but the look of the six spokes is somewhat plain and near enuff to stock to be somewhat boring in IMHO. Enkei also cost less.

Hey Frost... I noticed in your sig that you have 245 F and 275 R . Are those the 18" 8.5 and 9.5? The only way I can get them to mount and balance before delivery is with the 225 F and 245 R's. I also noticed when I went with the default stagered tires they were a 45 profile too.

Just wondering if there is a big diffrence is sizes since I want to make sure the tire comes out wider than the rim...

Lawndart----They are the 8.5/9.5. You have the option to choose which size you want...just pick the rims and then independently pick the tires by clicking the "search for staggered size" thingy under the tire section and enter the sizes you want. At the checkout screen they will ask if you would like to have them balanced for free...you definetly want that. I do suggest that you call though, always best to speak to a warm body!
On a side note to everyone, I can get $1300 for my rims and tires from a local source. The way I look at it...that is $1300 more to be spent on something with boost So anyway, if any of you are somewhat local and interested, let me know. Thanks
Oh and if anyone needs help with tirerack, let me know

Thanks frost, I'll do that. I'm putting the blacks on a silverstone with the nismo lip (funny, I want to do what you already did)

I'm glad you mentioned the tire edit options, but I'll call to be safe.

Thanks again and if any of you have more pics of these rims please post them!

I just weighed mine when I took them off today. The rear which i believe is a 9.5 with a 265/45/18 weighed in just under 52lbs. Thats with Tire and air of course.

Thanks! I really like yours with the black Nismo lip. I might have to get one of those later on...
