Oh, I think that rim would look better in bigger sizes. My .02
Already have them...
See sig...
They look great... They are light, and if you pair them with Falken Azenis... Then you get the traction needed to handle the competition...
Wow, what a salesman...
Take Care!
yeah, I think they will still look good if you have the car lowered.Originally posted by 00sir

I ordered mine a couple of days ago, also with Falken Azenis tires and also in 15in size.
Autocross, you know...
Are they lighter than the stock rims? What about the wheel/tire combo, is it lighter than stock?
stock wheel + tire = 38 lbs (approx)
15in Konig wheels + falken Azenis tires = 32 lbs (approx)
So you are saving about 6 lbs per corner, or altogether about 24 lbs. Not bad considering that the weight saved is unsprung ... And you get excellent traction and improved acceleration due to smaller rolling diameter.

Dang that is some awesome weight savings. I need to look into that for real. I'm no autocrosser, but for daily driving I can see where it will help your acceleration and handling.
If I am not totally out of my mind, I saw that wheel in the new
Super Street advertised as a 19" in bronze. I would assume if they make a 19 they would make a 17. A 17 in gunmetal would
be tits.
I just checked out Konig's website.
The helium's come in 17 in bronze and silver,
and weigh 16.2 pounds. They do not have a price listed
on their yet though.
strange, but on discount tire company's site they only come in 15" www.tires.comOriginally posted by Jeremy R

okay, I guess discount tire needs to get their head out of their ass. At first it says the heliums only come in 15's then if you click on the wheel it shows how much it would cost for all sizes 15-19". That's cool to know though. I wouldn't mind having those :)
