$200 each ain't bad. Matte gray only is a del breaker though. Maybe they will add colors later

What's the quality like? My XXRs had some runs and thin spots in the paint. They chip insanely easy too.

Tbh I was worried about it being flat matte grey too, but they are more of a satin finish and looks pretty good in the light. I’ve only had them on since Saturday so I can’t say much on paint chipping over time, but I can confirm visually they arrived in perfect condition so I'm pretty pleased with them.

Right now these are my first choice of wheels 18x8.


Very interested in 18x9 though mainly want to see if the front will poke. Don't like poke. Will most likely go with 18x8 squared like the OP to be safe

I'm interested in getting these in the 18x9 +38 size. Just wondering about poke, and rub at that size. I don't want to have to run too much negative camber either. According to the FRSproject calculator, these will be -14mm from flush in the rear and -7mm from flush in the front but that just doesn't make sense to me.

The FRSproject calculator doesn't use the correct measurement for wheel width. It assumes that the 9" is from the outside edges of the wheel which is incorrect. The 9" is measured between the inside edges of the bead seats.

Ohh okay. That makes more sense now, I didn't really notice it until recently when I started actually paying attention to the measurements it was reading out and none of it was making sense to me. Thanks for clearing that up

I'm planning on buying the 18x9 +38. Anybody know if it will clear and fit? I'm lowered 1" on eibach pro kit. Appreciate it if someone can confirm so I could buy them :)🙏

OP your wheels look great! Nice choice! These came out after I bought my Oversteer's.


I have bought Konig wheels New three times. In the late 90's, early 2000's, and two years ago. The clear coat failed on the first two sets. They seem to have figured out how to fix the problem. My "new" Konig Oversteer's still look great! Their finish, for an inexpensive wheel, is top notch. :thumbup:
