Finally here are some photos of my new wheels.

Before...



After...

Nice ...

And i see they came with a free set of red calipers too ... Bonus

Thanks

did you refit the petrol cap as well ?????????

Wow - what a difference........ they look superb!!!

They look really cool mate.

Makes a huge difference to the look of the car

Really like the choice of wheel. Are they 17" rims?

Those are truly splendido!!

Great choice

Gotta agree wid da guys....................VAST improvement .....

Better watch em

Very nice, it show the red calipers so much better than most other wheels.... NICE....

hmmm.. as Bazza says.. was the petrol cap a mod?? the top one did not have one! heheh

looking goood

Top one was before the electic to petrol mod. Well spotted - thought I'd swap to top pic around so they pointed the same way.

Now my S trim IS200 looks like a proper lexus. I'm very happy with them - they look so much better, they're an awful lot easier to clean and the handlings improved. Well worth the money.

They're 17x7 with offset of 45 so an exact match to the standard 17" wheels too so no worries about clearance, affect on steering etc.

They're really, really nice

So where is the petrol cap on the top car then???? im confuse....

i think pic has been reversed to show the same look


nice wheels
vast improvement
go for the 18" next

well cool mate.

I shall have to look out for you when driving about!

You thought about the TTE trip?? See Meets section? Thinking about going, would be nice to go with a local??

Javadude...They look very nice mate!

Personal choice of course, but me thinks you should get your ***** into the Eibach Springs group buy....just to finish off the whole package ....for 150 notes you will be most please with the look and performance increases!!

Guys...what do you all think!!

I agree - it would look (and handle) better lower, especially as the rear springs seem extra high on my car. But I've just paid out on wheels + tyres, 40k service etc etc - loads of money - so I'm going to wait a while. Perhaps get them fitted when the shocks need replacing.

Nice choice of wheel - used to have Snipers on an old Prelude ....... the Kosei wheels are really good Japanese wheels - very light compared with the 'normal' aftermarket wheels..... BUT - make sure you give them a regular coat of wax.

Kosei wheels do not stand up to the British winters/roads too well and will deteriate fast - so either take good care and get decent wax on and regular clean/coating ..... or budget for a refurb and repainting properly in about 12/18mths.

No real problem as if you go for the repaint - so long as done well, they will be 100% after and no more winter road issue.

I wouldn't hessitate to put Kosei wheels on any of my Honda's (none are daily drivers) but if I put them on my Lex - I would get them painted fairly quickly.

They look the business though!

Thanks for the advice on the wax, UV.

Fully understand mate....add it on the too do list!!

looking good...

I'm an italian boy, and I want to buy 4 Wheels Kosei Sniper for my Toyota Corolla TS. I wish to know what is the diameter of central hole.
Thank you

Hi Fortyone, nice to see you here too
I think you better ask on TOC

I'm a member of toyota owners club, but there isn't anybody that has buy Kosei Sniper

the HUB bore will be different from a your car and a is200, as the is200 is rear wheel drive

I wish only to know, what is the diameter of central hole of yours Kosei sniper.

I just happen to have one of the wheels off the car with the centre cap removed at the moment so I'll measure it. (Got a puncture yesterday).

About 6cm. I used a ruler but on the rear of the wheel as it was in the boot.
