Smile Kazera KZ-A pics (ginormous pics 56k no no)

today is a proud day for me, after over 10 years of being inactive from car shows, I got to finally enter one, to top it all off, after over a year of pure hell in my life and wanting to do stuff to my car and never neing able to due to several reasons, my life has made a turn for the better and I now have wheels, a drop, nice stereo etc etc....ah..how sweet it is (and how blessed I am!) The wheels are Kazera KZ-A, 18x9.5 with a 245/40/18 on the rear, fronts are 18x8.5 with 225/40/18. Tein S springs, plus the slight added weight of my stereo is responsible for the stance :D

If it wasn't for the extra couple pounds I would have gone chrome also. You could always get your center caps powder coated as well.

Those wheels (in chrome) are some of the best looking I've seen on an 8. Very Nice!

I think you've sold me on what rims to get. I was going to go with SSR Comps, but they're so damn expensive. At least I won't add any weight with these, if I don't want to spend the dough to lose some. One question: does TPMS fit? At least I won't add any weight with these, if I don't want to spend the dough to lose some.

those are somebody else's, not mine.


to answer the other question:
As far as i know TPMS will fit, I sold my stockers with the tpms in them however, so you might want to check with Connor over at Tirerack as NTB/Tirerack are pretty much the exclusive distributor for Kazera.

really? The discount I was trying to work with didn't seem to be able to, maybe all that's changed since it was about a month or 2 ago, oh well, looks like I've been misinformed...doh!

The wheels look nice......but....look into painting the calipers and rotors. It would make the wheels look even better!
