Which size?
17x7
18x7
Both in Hyper silver 4x100 bolt pattern

Note that with a 2" lip for either size rim you may slightly less clearance for a brake kit. This is a problem for 16" designs more than for 17" or larger though.

Search in the tire forum for TSW Kayalami.

Cosme, did you ever get any replies?

I'm also interested in seeing if anyone has these.

So BRGCooperS, what size did you get finally 17 or 18?
They look very good. I was wandering if the JCW brake would fit with those.

Thanks for the props Ko0ak! They are 17" (17x7 +40 offset if I am not mistaken) no spacers needed. I'll be checking into the JCW brakes, but from my understanding even most 4 pistons will clear this (with the possiblility of spacers needed.) I'll let you know!
