It's more than likey these but with a very crazy offset.

It said Konig so just a wild guess. My other guess were Gram Lights.

Thanks.

They are pretty affordable for a light weight forged rim.

too bad they don't come in WHITE, only in black

It's not that hard to repaint them yourself. Or, if you want something more durable, you can get them powder coated in white.

well the problem is that you can't actually buy the wheels they use in DTM and rallycross...

did more research on the wheels.

Seems like there have been a few occurances of cracked wheels from some testimonies. And they seem to be looked down upon for some reason.

In Canada you can buy Motegi wheels at Canadian Tire, which is a huge 'everything store' chain. Nickname is Crappy Tire. A lot of the badly modded cars in small towns have the cheap Motegis, because that's pretty much all they can get.

Did you find out country of origin on the forged ones? The Tracklites go back to just a little bit after F&F era, I think, and that may have a bit to do with the bad rep as well. Height of riced cars...
