cheers, craig.
 
i was going to buy the older style ones earlier this year but i really dont like them compared to the other ones
 
you coming to the meet next sunday?

i like the flat ones bud the news ones have more stance i reckon
 
ye man im up next sunday, ill be the sad twat polishing his car on a car pak lol
 
He may also be on about the QFs and SFs, the forged and cast models respectively.
 
Kosei K1's look exatly the same as the older ones. here's mine they look a bit cheap lol cause i sprayed them black with halfords spray paint not bad for a £5 job lol, and yes they are 15s hence they look a bit S***

The old style P1s are discontinued in europe and are only available through the likes of Nengun but are pretty costly for what they are. ULTRALITE do a nice replica called the D1 I've had two sets: 15x7 on my Yaris and 17x8 and 17x9 on my R34 gunmetal and bronze respectively. Unfortunately they don't do an EK9 fitment unless you want 17s so you're best off with the new style which is what I'm doing B)

Not seen the Kosei's before but they appear to be reps as well

IMO the older ones are lighter and better made all in all a very decent wheel.
Dunx
 
this threa has started a wee buddy club discussion, I love the old ones in white but I feel they have no stance, the new have more character and look dope :) can't wait to get them on the gt3 are going in the garage for a while lol my burd knocked them back haha she has no clue lol
 
Check my build thread, i've just fitted a set of P1 SF in gunmetal

Really like the wheels, think they are a much nicer wheel than the old ones since they have a bit of a lip on them, shame they're a good bit heavier though :((

Oh and you will need to roll your rear arches to get them to fit, i have them in 15x7 ET35 and it's TIGHT. They are good for brake clearance, kinda the reason i bought them! Can fit 300mm touring car brembos in behind with only a 6mm spacer
 
i just love the fact the faces on the old ones are slightly concave, and i dont see many wheels like that, Nice clearance on brakes aswell which is always a bonus! :)

I love them both, but just have a soft spot for the older ones :) Having said that yours look Hawt steve!
 
Hey guys I wanted to know if you knew where I could get the new P1 rims in bronze. I have searched all over the net and can't find them in bronze. I have a set now and one of the wheels had road rash. So I was looking into purchasing one new one, but can't find them.
 
Japshop.co.uk (SPD) speak to Paul or Shawn. I have not seen them in bronze though any pics?
