well a 225 on a 9" is still a stretch so there for everyone with them needs the hate your directing here.
i already have 205/50/15s and i have no reason to buy new tires if they do not look too bad. Also there isnt an all season in that size so im doing what i want not what everyone else likes.
i understand why i should have 225's but i have already accepted that i am going to atleast try the 205's my car isnt going to be on the track And yes i could of bought the x8 wheels but once again im not buying a second set when i want the x9s and at the end of the day well its my money bitches.
aha this thread turned into a cry baby bitch fest and i didnt even get to see hustler say anything entertaining.

Still man, stretching the hell out of an all-season greatly reduces the (few) pros of running an all-season. Beyond the actual tread pattern/compound, in limited grip situations and especially heavy rain and snow..you WANT plenty of side wall, you want a narrower contact patch, and you want side wall/carcass flex. Stretching a 205 over a 9" rim takes away all three of these characteristics which play a vital roll in foul weather traction

well hustler i tried that too. and the job worked and being a man. But I Am only twenty And now engaged and just bought a house Soo there for am not as much of a baller as you.
and i understand all the down sides and have weighed my options. And remember i have only bought one to see if it fit over sport brakes i can also send it back and get the 8 inch wheels.. only time will tell.

Not sure what there is to regret. All wheels are round and spin the same, the K7s are slightly heavier than the 6ULs, slightly lighter the the C3ms, and priced right in between the two (shocker).
The real issue is getting a set, they are sold out and have not hard ETA for a new batch, but its at least a month out

Exactly. There are three options that, style differences aside, offer reduced weight for more cost: C3M, K7, and 6ULs. Pick your price point.
I chose to pay more for the 6ULs since right now they are strictly for track duty and the reduced weight is welcome. Plus the 6ULs are clearly the most awesome of the three above choices.
