Konig Heatsinks???

Im thinking of doing the Konig Heatsinks. I dont want the Hotswaps or Unknowns because everybody has them. Can someone photoshop a picture of the Heatsinks on an Orange SS SC. I really like the rims but dont know how they will look on the car. PLEASE HELP!!!

Heatsinks are a good looking wheel, but be aware that they are way way over 20lbs in 18"(as are pretty much all Konigs), and the peaks of the spokes stick out past the lip of the wheel.

I ordered and test fit them but decided otherwise based on these factors.

someone here on the forums has them, can't remember who but his CObalt is red with a carbon fiber hood. They look good. Look around.

You'll probably have to spend more than $300 per rim to get something under 20 lbs in an 18"... Just something to keep in mind.

whats the largest offset we can go with on our cars, i have a yellow 07 ss/sc. i want the deep dish look like in all the pics of the heatsinks you see on the different wheel sites, i hate the flush wheel look, pics look like 1 to 2" lip, but you said the peak of the spokes stick out past the lip, I'm confused. i don't care how much they weigh, it's a daily driver i don't plan on doing any racing.
