hi guys,

i've thought of getting some konig wheels, but am uncertain of their quality. i like to hear your thoughts on them before i decide to acquire a set. i kindly appreciate it.

thanks,

i have a set of 18" konig rush on my 97 accord, I have had no issues regarding quality.

virtualbong

Like I said in the PM, I have 16" Konig Villains on my Integra and haven't had any issues and I've driven thru some bad potholes.

Dan Martin

I had Konig Verdicts on my Golf and thought they were good quality. They don't make the lightest wheels but they seem to hold up well.

JPL530i

gentlemen, thanks very much

I'm waiting for my 18 inch Konig Thoery's they should be here sometime this week hopefully tommorow, il let you know when they arrive....i was trying to acheive teh Maya STM look just spending 2000 dollars cheaper, but anyway il let you know as soon as i get them.

Girth

a little too cheap for me.

Dan Martin

Sorry Mr. Baller

Girth

Konig always knocks off somebody else's style... Haven't seen an "original" style from them, EVER ! For a little more money than what they charge, you can get a lot nicer wheel and a better name brand. I work in the wheel and tire industry, so I tend to be a little baised.

JPL530i

thanks, jordan. post some pix too if you get a chance

dirt mcgirth, i ain't a high roller like you, dawg :gheywave:


jpl

Girth

High roller... I'm not. But I do prefer quality.

Copying certain styles does not mean that the quality is bad. It just means that they don't have a imaginative design team. If the wheel cost less, but is of good quality construction, then I don't care if its a copy of a higher end wheel.

Dan Martin

I'd still say Konig has some pretty creative rims. There are so many rim companies on the market now that similarities are bound to happen. How many versions of BBS' mesh wheel design are on the market?

Dan Martin

jpl, which rims are you thinking of getting?

ArchangelStudios

I'm using Konig Next 18X7.5 wheels and have been happy with them.

I'll bet the tires in this pic are larger than you are going to get, but at least you can see the wheels.

am still in that undecisive stage. these are the ones i have in mind at the moment:

1) rj inspyres don't really darn on me yet. they're nice though.

2)http://www.wheelmax.com/product.asp?ProdId=2131

3)they kinda remind me of enkei wun-gun. http://www.wheelsdirectonline.com/konig/holessilver.htm

4)and lastly...http://www.wheelsboutique.com/result...005&txtSize=18

the color of the car is SSM

JPL530i

alright ladies and gentlemen,

if everything goes right, these are the wheels am getting for the ssm. hopefully, they can replace the centercap piece.




jpl

Dan Martin

I don't mind that wheel but the centercap will look pretty ricey if they only have it in red. Silver would be best.

JPL530i

yup, i agree. that's why am gonna find out from them.

virtualbong

I think that wheel will look nice, but definitely find out if the center cap can be exchanged or taken off.

vwong

Better yet, get these.

Stokeless_TSX

I was just gonna say that hahaha.

JPL530i

yes, i love 'em but they're expensive for me. what are they for a set of 4, guys?

dzuy

konig is a middle line wheel. not bad, and it's affordable.

and it will be fine for 95% of the customers out there.

vwong

I think the GT-C is in the same price range as my GT-7. If so, I paid $2100 for my 19" GT-7.

JPL530i

and am one of the 95%

JPL530i

wong, is that with tires also? what's the name or url of the co?

thanks,
jpl

vwong

Rims only. I got them from Pit Crew in San Gabriel, CA. I don't know if they have a website.

JPL530i

gotcha

osubuckeye98

What if you paint your calipers red too?
