15X6,5" and gun metal color

The weight is 14.70 lbs/ 6.6 kg.

I hope my tyres will arrive next week.:)
 
thats a sweet wheel mate :nice: make sure to put up pics when you get the tires on and the wheels on the car to we get a look...
 
nice looking wheels indeed.
personally i would have said that 195 / 55 is a bit to big of a profile to be honest, with the porxes T1-R they have alot of tire wall flex... but thats my opinion so you may love it.


pics when fitted would be nice.
 
Nice alloys look the job! i reckon it will look great !
 
Thank you for all.

chrispyology, I can't wait neither :)

DOSvtec, of course I will put up some pics. when I fitted it.

Topher-EK4, the stock size is 195/55 R15 and I don't want to use /50 because that is smaller and more sensitive on the bad roads. (we have terrible rods with lot of potholes...) and other hand the /50 is smaller in diameter too. (almost 1 inch...) I've EK9 springs on my EK4 VTi and it would be too big gap between the wheels and the fender.

Here is a pics. from a Drag (16") wheels (not mine):

Yeah man i know its stock but what i meant by saying about the 50 profile was the tire wall flex...

i ran 195 - 55 R15 on my kosei K1 alloys and there was SOO much tire wall it looked like 4x4..
wasn't hating on your choice mate i was merely offering experience with those tires in that exact size thats all...
i'm sure you will love them.. just offering advise thats all bud.

also i nknow that fitting the incorrect tire can put your speedo out of sync, i'm sure this can be recalibrated though so its really not a problem.

Also i don't think it is 1inch less diamter i think it is -20mm of diameter...??

i use this chart its very helpful for things like this.

Ok. I see what you mean and thank you for you help.

And yes the diameter difference is 20 mm. but it means 3.36% and +-2.5% (more or less) doesn't offered.
My biggest problem is the bad condition roads with the lot of potehole.

btw. I read this:

"I found Toyo are good in a 55 profile rather than 50, the 50 has bad tyre wall flex, where the 55 didnt. "

I wonder if it is true or not. It will shows at the weekend.:)
