New 16x8 Wheel Incoming - Konig Dekagram

[mercdank]

Hey guys if you want this look without the big price tag or wait, XR527 wheels are available and look 95% identical. You can find them in 16x8.25 ET 0 19lbs, and 17x8.25 ET 35 23 lbs.
Konig:

XXR:

Those XXR's look good but like typical XXR's they are cast boat anchors. Hehehe in the 240 world those are frowned on as being the wheels that broke owners of drift missiles run. You know the cars with non solid paint jobs i.e. Several body panels with different colors not done on purpose and janky body kits . Lol
Ya and drift missiles are frowned upon by the real 240 enthusiasts. Of course that whole world went to hell in a hand basket after 2008.

That offset not gonna work in 16s on xxr.

I can sell you all the wheels. Well local guys. I'd rather not deal with shipping

 

[OrangeSpice]

Has anyone found a legit Konig wheel distributor to orchestrate a Group Buy and get this out of the gate?

 

[STArk]

In for a set. Hopefully we get something set up soon.

 

[HardBoiledEgg]

I sell Konig and pick them up locally

Custom wheels express ordered my Hypergrams direct from Konig and drop shipped them. I would assume they can do the same with these. They were no tax, free shipping to CA and included a free set of decent lugs.

Very responsive. I am willing to bet they can do the same with the Dekagrams.

They have to charge tax. It's just worked into the price lol

Charging state sales tax is only necessary if the seller's business owns property in your state.

If I buy wheels from a company that operates solely out of Alabama and have them shipped to Alaska there's no sales tax.

I wish there were more tire options for these. What is everyone planning on running?

probably the bf goodrich sport comp2 205 45 16. its the widest 205 i can find. i would go with a hancook rs4 if i want to go with a really sticky tire

 

[alexrex20]

205 already looks stretched on a 7in... 225/40 seems like a lost market in tire sizes.

All of the 205's would be too narrow. The only tire I think that would be good is a bfg Rival S in a 215 45 16. Because of this I probably wouldn't buy this size wheel. A 16x7.5 would be better.

sport comt2 is the only tire that has a 8" wide tread width in a 205. the funny thing is 205mm = 8.07" or something close to that. so all the 205 size tires that have a tread width of less than 7" should stay away from

Performance Tire options suck for this wheel. I'll be running 15x8s for autocross and I'll get these for on street.

 

[M-Sport fan]

Since I care neither about having max stretch, nor autocross tread wear legality, if I were ever to get these wheels they would get the; Star Spec Z2s, Proxes R1Rs, Advan A052s, or R888Rs in 225/45-16 on them.

Yummmmmm. 225
