Kosei K1 owners - question

I picked up a set of 17x7.5 Kosei K1s used and was wondering if I need hub centric rings for them or am I good to go as is? Also, do I need to buy new mounting hardware?

I'd check myself on fit but they're getting powder coated right now (Pearlescent Steel Gray - kind of a charcoal/gunmetal) and I can't test fit until they are returned and I'd rather have everything ready for them to be mounted when I get them back.

You will need hub-centric rings; I bought my Koseis used and the rings came with them.

BTW - get metal rings instead of the plastic ones, they hold-up better through all the wheel changes.

Call the Tire Rack and ask for Alex. He'll have the answer.
