I would go with the unknowns but look around and youll find some better. EVERYONE has konigs. Dont get me wrong, they are nice rims its just they are not very original at all. just my 2 cents.

Not a Sebring
I'm not a personal fan of either, but if I had to choose, I'd go with the Unknowns. Yeah the Unknowns are played but, but they look better IMO and the Hot Swaps will end up being just as played out after they've been out longer.
I say shop around, but if you do get either of those wheels, that's still cool. Anythings better than rollin stock.

how about some american racing wheels?
fyi: my buddy had some konig toxins on his car. a very small pothole that most of us wouldn't even avoid claimed 2 of them. i dont think konigs are very strong.

the unknowns are so played out, and i think they're ugly as hell... the hot swaps aren't that bad... i still haven't found a rim that i would spend money on though, for the damn price of rims i don't see what the big deal is.

since u have seen unknowns and hotswaps on a cobalt id do some konig troubles on there and get them in black with chrome lip if possible

just for ***** and giggles see what these would look like on a balt

my pic is a couple of post up. but they are the gloss black with chrome inserts, but i have the red inserts on back order. I paid like 750 from discounttiredirect.com They had the best price on them and free shipping. And the red inserts cost me 120

i'd go with neither of them. every other cobalt i see have konig wheels. not sure if you care about performance at all but konig wheels are heavy as ****.
