HI,
What size tire did you get?

Garduna · 11-09-2008, 11:43 PM

I swear, those KM-11s are a 1 series fetish I tell you :P

wtiger127 · 11-10-2008, 12:32 AM

I purchased the same rims with lm-25 blizzaks. Just want to know, did you use the standard screws that were with your car OR you ended up getting some new ones? If so, where did you get them?

ruffstik · 11-10-2008, 07:10 AM

These are the 17" wheels and I used the same lugs that were used with the OEM wheels, including the wheel lock.

Gary@TireRack · 11-10-2008, 07:15 AM

I need to put mine on and get some pictures.....

These look very nice.

wtiger127 · 11-10-2008, 01:22 PM

Ok, but are the OEM Bolts in Black color or a type of grey/silver? I have a 128, so am not sure if it is different with a 135?

ruffstik · 11-10-2008, 01:37 PM

the bolts are black

tnawab · 11-10-2008, 02:06 PM

Yeah..im really liking the color of these wheels....starting to think about if I can get my OEM wheels powdercoated in a gun metal color. Will have to see how much that would be....

Careful whether you mean the colour of these wheels or 'gunmetal'. Gunmetal is usually much 'bluer' than the KM11s. I had a set of gunmetal Lenso VPDs for my Miata (also blue) and didn't care for the look at all. The KM11s are really grey, and I think they look quite good on a blue car. Your mileage may vary on a black car, though.:wink:

modbargains · 11-10-2008, 03:43 PM

Nice set-up you have there.
