Summer sandals came! Because, January.
Complete with idiot stickers.
Kosei K4R in dark gray, 16×7.5, shod in Dunlop Direzza ZII Star Specs, 225/45R16
I like how they look in person, even more than how they looked in pics. More aggressive than I expected. And tons of clearance for brakes and struts, when used with 10mm spacers up front. Could probably get away with 7mm.
Ride height isn’t set for them here, and I didn’t settle the suspension. Just dropped the lift a bit to get an idea of how they will look.
And, light.
So here’s the full collection of wheels for the GP Roadster: GP 18″ wheels w/ 225/18R40 Michelin Pilot Sports for winter, the K4R / Star Specs for Summer, and 949 Racing 6UL 15×8 with Nitto NT01 225/45R15 for the track.
The GP wheel / tire combo is 6 pounds per corner heavier than the summers:
And the track combo is 4 pounds per corner lighter!
And the rest of my Mini Fini hitch arrived. This is nice stuff. My old car had a MiniDoMore hitch. I never really paid attention to how the Mini Fini stuff attached. It’s really well thought out. I cut down and re-drilled the drawbar from my old hitch, to minimize extension.
