Smile Merry Christmas to Me

Welp my winter project is taking shape very quickly. Today I just received my 15x7 Kosei K1 TS Wheels. They are soo soo sexy. And at only 10.6 lbs a piece, who could go wrong. So anyway I now have wheels, tires, and I am only one payment away from ownership of the civic. This autocross season is gonna be so great

Hahah second time I got asked that, and really I'm not sure. My best guess would be that it makes it easier to balance. My second guess would be so you don't have to fill it at an odd angle. You know if the valve stem ends up at the top when you park. I guess anyway lol

its so you can have double lights on there or you can have two tires ........... OOOOOOOOOO i got it........ its so you can have an intertube in there also and you can have both the intertube and the tire inflated so you can have double tire protection

i heard the dual valve stems are for when you fill them with nitrogen you can bleed out the regular air. My newfue has these rims on his honda. They look sweet.

Wow, that sentence blended so smoothly into such a strange realm, I hardly noticed until I reached the end and was like, whoo-wha?
