Konig feather weights? Update - installed!

Ultraleggeras are pretty light at 18x8. What are they, 17lbs? And cast, if I'm not mistaken. The material is spread a little thinner than what I'm assuming the OP is looking at (17x7?)

That said, do the roads just really suck up there? I find the roads in cities that go under 32 degrees for long periods of time will really suck it up.

Our roads are way better than NYC. But yes it does get cold here, but they are my summer rims. Stock 16s for winter. It could well be the close to 4000lb landboat's mass ()

Low pressure casting + heat treatment is what OZ calls its process.

I have posted this picture here enough times, once more won't hurt :biggrin:
Tires at that time were Yokohama Advan Sports. Lovely tires, but definitely one (dry) season tires.

These konigs are pretty much the cheapest you can buy aftermarket... but I see used wheels for sale all the time... its not like they go 'bad'

I have a set of OZ manufactured wheels, one or two of which are slightly warped. That problem is impossible to detect with the naked eye. And they drive fine, EXCEPT when you hit 60-65 MPH. Then the wheels wobble like crazy sending massive amounts of vibration through the steering wheel. Below or above 60-65 MPH they are fine though, so a quick drive around the block may not reveal any problems.

I like the style of the wheel, but I can't stand stuff with too many holes in it (the extra bolt pattern).

Like the silver color too, gives the car a little extra personality.
