    Found these wheels :D



    Is anyone running these wheels or a similar wheel? I searched and found nothing. Just curious. They aren't that pricy and would look pretty cool. Kinda similar to the Volk TE37x's or something like that. Or does anyone know the backspacing on the stock wheels in 18"? Will the 0mm back spacing stick out much?

    I have seacrched. Lol

    Also, any tire recommendations size/brand?

    Edit: They are Konig Countersteers and I found them at jlbmotorsports.com

    Thanks

    Those wheels are actually pretty sweet. I like the matte finish.

    A 0 offset should be perfect. My Chambers have a 0 offset and 4.5 back spacing. They fit perfect and look awesome. Just make sure the center bore opening is big enough (look for wheels that fit Nissan and Toyota and steer clear of the GM wheels with the same bolt pattern). I'm running 16s, and I would think the 18s should have no issues.

    Look good, nice find im in the near market for some black rims. I have been a fan of these wheels I have not looked into weather or not they will fit.

    They also come in this:

    I think the bronze would look neat on an ebony
    And the hub bore is 108.3mm

    Cool! I haven't seen many non-baller wheels available for us in a long time! I might have to scrape up some cash. My biggest concern for aftermarket wheels for my VX is weight. Does anyone know the weight of this, or any other available lightweight wheels for us?

    These are the exact ones I was looking at a while ago. Unfortunately, life reared its ugly head and demanded money for needs over wants. Sometimes, you just cant win.

    NICE price.....what site did you pull them up on?

    Im looking for probably an 18 like that or maybe 20 but I want to keep it as light as possible.

    What did the stockers weigh? I should know I sold and shipped three but i never weighed them.

    Sweet! nice and light. Anybody know what the stock 16s weigh? What a difference that would make for acceleration, unsprung weight, etc. Hell, might help MPG if you baby it for city mileage. If I replace my M/Ts with at least A/Ts, and get lighter wheels, that would be awesome.

    The specs look right and they are about $150 cheaper than the Chambers, I say go for it.

    Thumbs up

    Love them... I really wanted the Volks but they were to much.
    They would look sweet on my beast.
