15's on the SRT?

Post by suave23 » Sat Oct 18, 2008 11:51 am

My SRT has needed tires for a couple months now, but I hardly drive the thing anymore so it really hasn't been top priority. I absolutely hate the stock wheels. I hate the look of them, I hate the size of them, I don't want to spend money on tires for them.

About a month or so ago, I sent money to a guy on srtforums for a set of silver 17" 5zigen FN01RC's with new Nitto tires. They were a wheel that I had wanted for a long time, and I did some checking up on the guy and all seemed legit. Guess what, never recieved them.

Now, I'm on the search again. Recently I've come across some mint 15x7 Kosei K1's in silver. Used for a few autocrosses only, so no curbage or any other damage. I never thought I'd put 15's on my SRT, but after looking around, I love the look. I think I've pretty well made up my mind, but I'd like to hear others' opinions...

Here what mine currently looks like. Fog light covers and wingless trunk are painted and waiting to go on, although I may get another pair of fog covers and leave them black (or cf), and the folding part of the mirrors will be painted soon as well.

(Not the greatest pics, but haven't had a reason to take any lately)

And here's some SRT's with 15's I found on srtforums. They're Slipstreams and Traklites, but they give you an idea. They only 15" K1's I found had huge slicks or DR's on them, lol.

The red SRT has the same size tires as I plan on getting, but I won't be going with the Kuhmo's.

Where did you find the K1's for sale so I can buy them out from under you?

I vote yes with 225/55/15's on them. Oh god, I've fucked up the keyboard again.

I'm not telling anybody where I found them, until they're on my front porch...lol

Maybe you should look into those keyboard protector things? Personally I just always skeet on the screen, I find it's a lot easier to clean off than the keyboard. Not to mention it's comparible to shooting it on the computer's face as opposed to it's tits.

Obviously mine's blue, and the Kosei's are silver. These pics just happen to be the only ones with 15" wheels I could find at the moment.
