I can tell you that my stock 225/40/18s fit on an 18x8 Konig with +46 offset.
man nice wheels on gen2.. i got to say the black ones don't smile as much as the other gen2's.. (cool)
Thanks. It doesn't hurt that I've blacked out the front of the car. It really does mute the whole "smile" thing. I'll be spraying the bumper insert soon so the smile should all but vanish (x's fingers)
I think that would help a lot! lemme see some pics when you've done it. I got to see it and maybe trade in mine for a black gen2!
i got the rims installed for $35/wheel (dismount/mount tires).. pics on OP. the tire doesn't look bad at all.. hard to see from the pics though as i just snapped some phone pics after i got home.
Well 1st on my list is to install some V-led high power LED brakelight bulbs. My spray is a bit dark and I don't want to be a cop-magnet any more than I already am. After that, I'll pull the insert and spray it at a shop. I was quoted 80$ to do it with PPG 16w-matched paint.
I saw your wheels, honestly my first pick was the torques it's nice to see a set on a MS3. I ended up going with Tenzo Type-M but those fell through (read my FMW post) and settled on the Konig Runaways which in the end I liked more than any of the wheels lol.
Like mine, yours has a small stretch but nothing obtrusive. See, we told you the stockers would fit!
$80 is not that bad to color match the insert.. i definitely wanna see some pics. i was actually thinking about getting the tenzo type-M's myself.. or the Cuzcos. i ended up finding some used torques locally for $500 with no scratches or anything.. so that made my decisions really easy. I think you made the right choice. those runaways look sexy on ur ms3!!! (rockon)
Once it's all done, I'll post it up. I really liked the Type-Ms but they are played out. Too many people have them so I went with something a bit low-key. The torques are great as well and look good on the 3.
