im lookin at these wheels for my TC. i have a buddy that just started selling wheels, audio &electronics and stuff so i kinda threw it in the air "i think you should sponsor me a set of wheels yea i dont like them 100% but they are nice and they are free..

but instead of the chrome inserts on each spoke i can have carbon fiber, red, or blue tell me what you think of the wheels and also what insert you would do on a classic silver tc...
just curious i may go with another set of konigs but these were catchy...18x8.5 i may do 18x9 but im conserned for rubbin on a TRD drop... so idn yet still researchin

The CF inlay would probably look the best on those wheels. Overall, I think that they are very angular and don't flow very well. They are too straight cut. I also don't like the studs along the rim. However, the rims are free.... IMO I'm not sure if I could do it.... sorry

I'm not feeling them either... but more b/c of the damn rivet look that everyone seems to use - when they probably aren't even 2 or 3 pc wheels. Just too busy for me, I like a cleaner look.

But if you like them, don't let a bunch of a forum monkeys discourage you. :)

I considered the hot swaps and liked the look of them but then was informed how they are heavy as hell and then noone seemed to like the color so i passed on them. I think the ones at the very bottom look pretty nice out of all of em.

I believe PlayinWithFire had these, they looked great on his car...

But if you have to keep it in the Koing family, I think these would be interesting...
