Default Konig Unkown rims

I was thinking about putting these on my yellow xb. I wanted to see if other people liked them. They are the Konig Unknown rims.
Also, what size would look the best on a xb?

Very Nice Wheel, I think they would look great! 18 or 20's if they are available!

I just put on 18 Konig unknowns with a +45 offset and will be running 215/40/18 tires
You will have to put on a 14/ wheel spacer or the OTG hub spacer to get it to work in the rear but the front perfect !!! I almost went with the 17s but I didn't want to have to lower it 2 inches and that is what it take to make it look good!!! I love the look of the 18s and I will use the TRD springs to drop it a inch and still be in warranty

I had a set of 18 konig wheels and I loved them.. The guy that I sold them to he change his mind and took them off his civic. I can check to see if he still has them for sale

Let me know

yeah.. but in order to keep that warranty, don't you have to get the dealership to do it?... seems like it could cost a bit much

It doesn't matter what wheels you have on the car for the warranty.....

I paid $700 for my Set of 18's with tires, but they are used. The cheapest I have seen for a new set with tires is about $1100....

Dwestxb, thanks for posting a pix of my RS2 with the Konig's...I love the rims and couldn't be happier...I got mine, and have referred several others, to www.treadepot.com They were mounted, balanced, 16 locking lug nuts, hub cenric rings, caps, chrome valve stems and shipped to my front door for $899. I even upgraded from a cheaper tire to the Toyo Proxes 4 for free...Can't say enough about treadepot.com Their customer service is awesome. By the way, I got the 17's, they come in a 40 offset, while the 18's come in a 45 offset...Here is another pic or two:

thanks for the info. I looked at their site and I think its the same as Kaufman tires.

I was wondering how you were able to upgrade to the toyos for free? did you call them and ask, or was it a deal you made somewhere?

Thanks again.

Joel

^^^^They said the $899 package included the Kumho 711 in a 205/40/17 size and I wanted the 215/40/17's for the same price. He said he could do it and offered me the Toyo Proxes4's in the 215/40/17 as an upgrade for no additional charge...I few others I have referred there also have upgraded to the Toyo's for free...It finally rained here in Az yesterday and the tires handled good in the rain...
