    Tread width is 6.9" on a 205. 8" wheel. 100% not square, but relatively square compared to some of the crap that people run

    This is why I'll probably go with a 225/45/15 rival. 7.9" tread width on an 8" wheel

      I do prefer a slight "stretch"Ā 
      I think the pictures above that you posted look fine to me.
      I run a 225/45/16 on a 16x8, getatmebro
      A friend has 225's on a 7" wheel and it looks a touch ballooned for my liking, for his car anyway.Ā 
      I like starting new lines for every sentence.

        The Kosei K8R are the clear winner for me. Other two are nice, but meh. I had K1s on my Miata and always wished they were wider. Debated buying those same C1s to replace them, but I'm glad I didn't. I love the way the K1s look.

        Both tires look stretched in that picture. I would definitely get the 225 at minimum.

          It's a toss up between the k5r and the k8r for me right now. 225 is for sure going on them

            Oops, I meant K8R, not the K5R.

            K8R is way better.

              I've been asking a bunch of people. K8r has been the consensus. I like the k8r simply because the k5r looks similar to what I already have

                  I'll eventually be running 225/45 RS3s on my car with 15x9s. I vote for the K8R wheels out of the 3 choices.

                        I think I have to say C1. Ā I don't like the way the K8R touches the outer lip.

                                      Found out my coilovers were shipped and received over a week ago, by someone else.

                                      Turns out enjuku places orders with BC and then BC ships them. Mine went to the wrong address (guess it was a shop) and have been sitting there for a week. I called to follow up and dude on the phone had no idea how it happened. He said the shop is willing to ship them back to me. I told him if the coilovers are opened I will be asking for my money back. I've been such a pain in the ass with this guy he has my ordered memorized. If they're the wrong rates I'm going to drive to enjuku and throw them through the fucking window
