That was my conclusion as well. I shopped for six months and there was nothing I liked better as far as looks, and they just happened to fit my budget and have the right offsets. I still love them. But I've come to terms with the fact that I can't really brag about them. No one is ever blown away by Konig. I don't race or anything so I have complete confidence in Konig's cast/spun/roll-forging process. Besides increased ride comfort, smaller wheels also have the added benefit of making our brakes look bigger.

Funny story-when the updated Toyota 86 came out with it's new wheels, I immediately told a buddy of mine: "See! My Konigs look like the new 86 wheels! I'm a trend-setter!" His reply was "Congratulations, you have mass-market taste."
