Alright, I've found my dream pro5...but WHAT WHEELS ARE THESE?!?

[ghetto waggon]

Walking around in lunch today and saw some spinner rims on an escelade, was bored, so I went in to barnes and noble and started reading "truckin".

Low and behold, the only "sports car" in the whole magazine is in a k&n advertisement. 'Dan & doug, two twins, totally different, (one with little pr5, other with huge lifted truck, but k&n definetly brings them together'

haha

anyway

the wheels are pimp as s*** and I want them NOW!
I called k&n to find out what they would tell me and they were no help really. One guy thought maybe nakayama.

Anyone know what the wheels are?

Thanks!

hehe and yes, I was a cheap bastard and tore half the ad out of the magazine...I couldnt resist

I think those rims cost as least half a P5

First I thought it was the Arospeed RS-23, then I thought it was the Speedy Wheels Octopus. Then I realized both of those only come in a 4-lug. Honestly, the angle is bad and the pic is too small for me to tell.

 

[drumsbeloud]

they might be konig wheels. i know they have a few graphite wheels with machined lips like that.

 

[drumsbeloud]

konig holes maybe

 

[ghetto waggon]

i'll pay what they cost...shave the fenders if need be

Those are the s***

and i've got the money for it

I'll keep looking...

thanks

 

[ghetto waggon]

aww, come on guys, doesnt ANYONE know?

I've done my time....4 hours at work scrounging the net....no luck

HEYALLP!

First I thought it was the Arospeed RS-23, then I thought it was the Speedy Wheels Octopus......

And the it dawned on me. They are the Konig Absolute in the Graphite Color. drumsbeloud was half correct in thinking that they were called the Graphite.

The 17's weigh 18.8 lbs which isn't terribly heavy, but not the lightest either at $237 a wheel. Here's the link to the Konig page for the wheel.

OMFG I owe you my life...THANKS MAN!

haha next question..should I go for the 19s?

 

[BlueMP5Dave]

Not unless you want to ruin them instantly. 19's only work with JIC Magic coilovers. Plus you will add alot of weight and more lag to drivetrain. But on the other hand they will look good.

Go 18, there is really a point where the start to look rediculous.
Those are great rims though, should look sweet as hell on the Pro5

Well Joe,

From what i could find that wheel is not made in P5 friendly offsets. You will need to mod your rear fender.
