SOLD!!!!

This is a lightly used set of 17 x 7 Kosei K1-TS in light silver shod with 215-45-17 Bridgestone Potenza Pole Position S-03s with quite a bit of rubber left.

I paid $1460 for this set, new from Tire Rack (wheels were $796 and tires were $664).

Will sell for $850 plus shipping from 20646.

The wheels - just barely over 14 lbs - 42mm offset - maybe 7K miles on them - no scuffs, no rash, just a few minor rock chips - normal light wear - complete with center caps, centering rings, and the dual red metal valve stems and caps you see in the pic below. The tires have about 5mm of tread remaining and wear is even - a popular but hard to find tire these days.

Check my gallery for a few more pics of my MINI wearing these wheels and tires.

 

Do you know if these would fit on an 01/05 build?

 

not sure what the 01 is Chris, but a friend of mine has these on his 05 S. Man, you have posted over 1000 times in a few months?

 

I can't imagine why they wouldn't, but without checking with Tire Rack or some other experts I guess I can't actually "guarantee" anything.

I know the lug pattern is the same. I also know the lug size is the same through mid-06 builds. I haven't heard anything in all my surfing about changes to the hub diameter so I'm pretty sure that's the same. That's about it.

If you're not comfortable, you'll probably want to call around yourself anyway rather than taking my word for it.

Thanks for the interest.

 

Alright let me make some calls tomorrow and i will let you know.

Thanks for the quick reply

 

They will fit all Minis except the GPs (some mods needed) and the new 2007s when they come out (same mods will be needed as the GPs).

These are great wheels, get um.

If you still have them i have one last question. Why are you selling them.

 

I started with 17" SSR Comps and the same tires. I LOVED the combo -- great looking, ultralight wheels and fantastic tires -- but when I damaged my third SSR I decided to cut my losses and switched to the Koseis hoping for more durability. It worked.

Then I came across a set of used 16x7.5 SSR Comps (still my favorite wheels of all time) for a great price and I just couldn't pass it up - figured I'd have better odds with the 16s than the 17s. I kept the Koseis as spares, just in case, but the 16" SSRs are holding up just fine.

I really like the Koseis and I'd rather just keep them, but I have no need for two sets of good wheels.
----------------
edit: Whoops - I forgot the new Rotas (16x8 Slips) that are still waiting in their boxes, so make that "I have no need for three sets of good wheels." Hmmm, maybe I should just sell the Rotas...

 

Price reduction $900 + shipping.

 

Let's try this again, with a further reduction to $850.00 + shipping from 20646 (as updated in the first post).

 

SOLD!!!!

Thanks for the interest folks.

 

Thanks for a very professional transaction.

Folks, if he posts anything else for sell here, whether it be tires, or general merch., he has my highest recommendation.
