I put those on for a few days before my car was lowered just to see how it looks. They're konig tantrums 205/50/17 pirelli p7000 supersports. I'm trying to sell them now for a lot cheaper than i bought because I got 18" SSRs with p zeroes a few weeks later.

17" eh? Good. At first I thought those were Advan 18" rims (remember how you were advertizing Advan rims?), I was afraid 18s were going to look too small. Thanks anyways.

yeah, Advan AVS model 7 rims are the rims that originally look like that, they are much better and much more expensive than konigs.

I'm trying to sell the package for 950 shipped since I only had it on for a couple of days. They're in perfectly new condition. Konig is not exactly my favorite brand of rims though, that's why i got SSRs later. The advantage is that they're cheap and average quality (they are cast instead of forged like very expensive rims). They weigh less than stock rims which are cast as well. They have a silver finish instead of a machined one which makes it look better. Bought the rims for 170 each + shipping on and 30 to mount and balance tires. tires are 205/50/RZ17 pirelli P7000 supersports +42 offset (same as AcuraTL's momos, wont rub if lowered), around 130 a piece + shipping. Total i paid was just under 1300 around. Selling for 950 shipped OBO because shipping is ~ 150 UPS. If you're in the bay area then you can pick it up for 800.

His rims look great. TLon19s' friend has the same 19" Konig's but got them custom chromed.. looks great too!

I'm shooting for the Alstadt 1's in super chrome myself... IMO they just look so phat!

Rice,

I would be interested in your rims and i'm in the bay area so we could avoid the hassle of shipping. im concerned about the offset and color though. you sure the 42 offset is ok? no rub even with a comptech drop? i've had enough rubbing with my TL. also, i have a dark emerald pearl TL...can anyone photoshop those wheels on to a DEP for me? i'd like to see how they look.

AcuraTL has MOMO 18" rims with 42 offset and an even WIDER tire and he says it does not rub with his comptech drop. He's also from the bay area I believe. I dropped the car a day after i put the rims on and they didn't rub either. The tires are 205 width. Just email me if you decide you want them.
