Never been a big fan of KONIG's stuff. Especially the 'unknowns', hate that stuff. I'd like to see them with the red inserts. Post pics with them on your car ASAP!

How did you go about getting them custom drilled? Just called KONIG and asked them to custom drill rims for your car? I've always wondered how to do it, as I want to do it myself.

I dunno? when I ordered them the guy told me that i would have to wait 2 mo. because they did not come in my size. but he would make it happen at no extra cost to me. and would give me free shipping for waiting. so, maybe they do now. but I cant find them.

Hmm, okay, thanks. I was considering doing that with some VOLK rims. Thanks for answering my question.

Someone here has them on a black base model I believe, the only thing I dont like is that the spokes actually come out past the lip at one point and makes it look kind of......off

found the pics..... though not on an SS
