Anyone tried Rota K7?
Was browsing 18racing.com and found this nice looking set of wheels. 15x9 et36 sounds very familiar. Nice lip too.

Are there any tire options for 9 inch wheels for those of us who are honest with ourselves and aren't racing gods, and would like more than 10K miles and a whole bunch of nails in our tires?
I'd like to try the dunlop star specs but I'm afraid 205/50/15 would look GAY on a 9" Other wise it's rs3's or some such that are really a waste of time and money on a car that goes to the grocery store every day and MAYBE a SMALL hand full of driving events a year.

BUt yeah, 225 tire selection is limited, you have the RS3s, R1Rs, and race rubber
Main reason I like these is the actual aesthetics and the weight

well i bought one just to see if it fit over my front brakes.
i put it on my home scale and it hit 13.0 lbs on the money.
someone already posted a picture of my car but i can post a few more. i am going to run a 205/50/15 i know stretch is gay but im hoping to find a wide 205 and get minimal stretch.

those are the 9's? I'll be watching closely. I wanted to try the dunlop star specs as they are sticky as hell and supposedly last a touch longer than the other super sticky summer rubber. I have no idea if they are "skinny" or "wide" for a 205 though.
Doing some net surfing I've seen some 205's that looked pretty normal, and some that were... eww...
