Default My New Kosei Wheels and Dunlop Tires

I just put on my Kosei K1 Racing Wheels and Dunlop SP Sport 9000 tires today and I thought I'd share some photos in case anyone wants to know what they look like. They rims are 15s and I got the tire and wheel package from Tirerack.com. I did forget to take a photo before starting the job, but here is one with the new tire/wheel and the stock package, along with some others.

i just trusted the tirerack.com wheel and package selections online, but i don't really know if they are the right tires. the wheels and tires came mounted and balanced. the tire size is 195/55R15. do you see something wrong with the tires? i basically just picked out a cheaper tire that seems to do well on wet roads.

just a word of caution. i didn't realize that these wheels don't come with a center cap. so far it hasn't been easy finding one that will fit and the prices seem a little high for just a set of 4 center caps. i may just have to go without anything even though the wheels look incomplete.

Compare you stocks, to your new ones....you will then know if the tire rack did you correctly. They are 99% accurate.

I guess those are the right size, it just looks like a lot of wheelgap.
