Konig Hypergram 17x8 +40

Just got my set of Konigs from their new 2016 lineup. The wheels are 17x8 +40 offset. Tires are Nitto NT05 235/40/17. The offset brought the wheel out 18mm and I couldn't be happier with the way it looks! Should be a sporty upgrade for a daily/autox setup

I've been considering these (along with Advanti Racing Storm S1 and Kosei K8R's) and I'm so glad to finally see them, thanks for posting!!

Looks really good. Don't they have a 17x9 size as well?

Edit: found myself. 17x9 +40. A couple pounds heavier than RPF1, but about half the cost.

Yeah I considered the 17x9s but I was worried about inner clearance in the fronts when turning and couldn't find a straight answer on how well they would fit. I really wanted to get a set of white Rpf1s in the same size but they just weren't in my budget. After a day of driving I've noticed the nt05 tires take some heat in them to get sticky, and when cold aren't even as grippy as the stock tires. Thanks guys, I appreciate it

Rainy day nt05s, not as bad as I thought but I wouldn't go over 60 on them in a downpour.
