I had a set of Kazeras when I still had my Miata. They're cheap, tough, and light enough for tracking. I just ran some Kumho Ecsta on them but I forget which ones.

Thanks for your imput.
I found other Mazda owners talking about them on another forum also. They seemed to be good reviews. Although I wouldn't compare Kazeras directly to Volks or O.Z. wheels, that are out of my price range for this summer.

I have the KZ-J's in those specs.

Click here for my thread

The face of the KZ-K will not be "sunken" into the wheel fyi. (eg no deep lips)

So far, so good but I've only had them for a little over a month. I have the Dunlop Star Specs. They are really grippy.

They look like pretty sharp wheels. I think they would look slightly better if they had a little depth to them, but considering the low price and the fact that that low price is for an 18" rim, it'd be a sin for me to complain.

There's a very good chance of a set of these rims winding up on my car eventually.

The fronts are pretty flat, but the rears are ever so slighty concave. High offsets don't translate to deep lips or concaveness. Worth the price though imho.

I have the Kz-K's now and they are perfect. I have 255/35 18 KDW NT BFG tires on the back and 215/35 18's on the front. No rubbing at all. Even though it looks like it will in the back. They clear the NON-rolled fenders by a few milimeters. They are 18 by 7.5 +50 & 18 by 8.5 +55. I wanted to go bigger on the front but it is lowered an tien springs 1.9 inches. I think that a 225 35 will fit on the front, but i didn't want them rub when I left the shop with my wife. (we had a 99 Acura RL with 20's that rubed in the back, she hated it!) I will post pics soon.

I noticed the tires look like some BF Goodrich g-force tires I have seen. Is this correct and if so do they make a lot of noise? How long have you owned them/how many miles? Do you like the way they handle? (sorry for so many questions but I have heard mixed answers and none from an S2000 owner).
