Rim questions

[beej336]

Well i think i will be getting a set of rims from the parents for Christmas, but i have a few questions on the rim i picked out.

to start, i guess its good to say what the rim is:

Kazera KZ-J (black with red stripe)
17x7.5
+50mm Offset
http://www.tirerack.com/images/wheels/kazera/swap/kazera_kz_j_brs_ci3_l.jpg

so my questions are:
-will this rim fit the P5 without any rubbing or issues like that?
-Is Kazera a trustworthy company? and if it isn't, are there any other companies putting out rims like this that are about the same price? i love the look of this rim.
-what size tires would you recommend putting on?

thanks

Cool, I like them. From what I hear Kazeras are a decent wheels, should be fine for daily driving and then some

They will fit. My wheels are the same specs and I run P215/45 series tires lowered on coilovers. Hope this helps.

Hope this helps.

i always take forever to pick out car parts, because i want it to look as good as it can...ive been switching between rims for several months now haha, and i think i finally found a set i like.

you bet! Rims are the centerpoint, they can make or break the flow of the car. P5s have a sweet body line, what better way to compliment that with a nice set of wheels.
What kind of lugs are you getting?

oopps, i meant to write lug nuts. haha. The reason i asked about the lug nuts is because those wheels would look pretty cool with red lugs and I think tirerack gives you chrome lugs. Google your wheels and see if you can find a pic of them with red lugs!

i knew what you meant haha. and yeah they might look alright with red lug nuts...but i can just rattle-can them red if i have to.

do you think these rims will look good on my black P5? my windows are tinted as well.
black on black on black was one of my 'personal arguments' for rims too.
i cant decide if it will look good on the car or not. its nice to have a color offset sometimes.
