Kyowa 206

Anyone have any experience with the Kyowa 206? They look really similar to the CE28N but these come in the 10 spoke design that I like a lot better. They only come in 17X7 +42 offset. I'm lowered on Swift Springs so will these fit without rubbing? What size tires can I use without rubbing? Thanks.

This is going to be pertty much the same set up I'll be running in the spring... not these exact wheels though.

But I'm looking at running 17x7 wheels, similar offset, only difference is I'm lowered just a bit more on H&R springs.

I plan on running 205/45/17 tires. You should be just fine, and it will look SICK. If you're really worried, you could always run a 205/40 instead.

They'll fit, but I imagine they're heavier than stock.

Kyowa's not a very good brand, either.

But at the end of the day, if it's the wheel he really wants, and fits his budget, so be it. Are there better wheels out there? Of course, but I'm sure these will do the job just fine.

Yes, they will be heavy, there is no question there, but sometimes its worth the hit on your gas mileage to get the look of your car 'just right'.

Yeah, I'm aware that they may be a little heavier then stock. I just can't seem to find a light set of wheels that look like the CE28N 10 spoke. I have my heart set on these.
