I love them too! I was set on the unknowns but these I think take the cake. I really need new rims I hit a curb with one and I had my wheels rotated thursday and I washed the car today and noticed another rim with really bad scratches which I think the dealer did! I would love to sell my polishhed but I can only sell two it seems at this point to recoupe some of the cost. I also was planning on a WR screen this month but now I dont know. I also have possible plans for a vegas trip in august so you can see how I am lost in choices! I don't know how the other rim got scratched because it was not there before. I want these rims!!!!

Most places including tire direct sells them for like $208 per wheel. I am not sure if the place I found for $160 have them in stock? Its hard to tell. I am currently trying to figure out how to get these bad boys.

This is an awesome wheel. It's actually one of my favorites. The spokes cut in nice and aggressive and the lip is deep. What size are you looking for? If we aren't the lowest delivered we will match or beat the competition.

I want 18s since I want to run my stock tires. I know...the stock tires suck but it saves me money for now. Let me know how much it will cost. I am trying to see if I can come up with the coin.

I agree, these are some nice wheels!

What offsets do they offer? I actually need to push mine out a good 1/2-3/4inch to have uberfitament now that the car is lower.

I really don't want to run spacers but it might have to come down to that.... or have a set of Volks built to spec

They are pretty nice but not sure if it flows with the design of the solstice. Would like to see what they look like on it.

Just got off the phone with Konig. No ETA and No production scheduled for the 18" 5-110. They have 17" in stock. 17x7 40 offset. 18" would be 18x7.5 45 offset.

How come they are not making it?! Two websites were showing them. That makes no sense, when you finally find a nice wheel that is suppose to fit the stupid odd bolt patterns that we have they shoot you down by not making them now.
