So I really like the the look of the gramlights 57 extreme but can't afford to break the bank..I saw these konig wheels that are pretty similar..just wondering, has anyone on here had good luck with konig in the past (just curious as to how the wheels and finish hold up over time)? Thanks

heres a link to the wheels

there's also these

what's bizarre about konig's site is that they give you a column for wheel weight but report 'N/A' all the way down.

if weight is not a concern, either one will due. or you can hit the used wheel market and look for the forged lightweight originals.

I can't say for durability as I just had them installed, but I had a set for Konig Z In wheels put on my car. I didn't weigh them, but they seemed lighter than I had expected. I got the 17 inch wheels, reusing the stock tires on the new wheels. I used the stock wheels for the Blizzaks I bought.

Fit and finish on the Konigs seemed pretty darned nice, I think it will work out well.

I agree with getting originals but they're not forged. 1pc Cast.

These looks great...although do you guys think the concavity will still be there if I choose 18x8" ??

No.

At $165 each, I think these are your wheels.

Yep those are very attractive looking options (for a similar style to the works)

Plus you can get them in 9" however, there is no proof that they are concave at the bigger widths

ap5512 · 04-24-2013, 08:47 PM

^^ Agreed..no point (for me at least) if the concave face isn't there...and from what i've read on other threads it only concaves that much when you go wider...like > 9"....I would love to see otherwise so I can buy them!

OjiGeorge · 04-24-2013, 09:53 PM

The 9" will fit front & back. I was looking at these, but at 22.6 lbs, they are not all that light :/

shiumai · 04-24-2013, 10:15 PM

konig doesn't offer those wheels in 5x100 bolt pattern for 18x9". i was seriously considering the torch in a 18x8F and 18x9R, but since they don't make them in a 9", it was a deal killer for me.

Plus they only have 15 and 35 offsets.
