Your opinion on Konig Unkowns?

[rdemattio]

Hello, I think I finally found my rims! They are 17 in Konig unknowns. I found them on craigslist. All 4 rims, 4 tires with 50% tread, and a brand new spare for 490$. The rims are in excellent condition! How do you guys think these will look on a 4 door black mz3? Does anyone have these rims? If you do please post pics! Thanks!

Are pretty sweet rims. if they cae in all black id def buy a set.

 

[rdemattio]

Yeah I'm not into chrome, but it seems like a real good deal!

 

[rdemattio]

Anyone else have an opinion?

 

[xMazdax]

HATE those rims.

They are ok. Might be too flashy for a 3 though. Price is good. Be sure to double check width, offset, and bolt pattern. Even if you get them and end up not liking them you can always keep the tires and sell the wheels to someone else.

Not bad, I would have them powdercoated something diffrent but for that price if they fit I would say go for it. PWDR is 200 for 4 rims

Yeah thats what I was worried about, they seem a little too blingy. The lugs match up, but the width is 8 in and its a 40+ offset, will that fit?

 

[hat1018]

They should fit may need some fender rolling in the rear. Possibly more rear negative camber. You could shoot a PM to Chefsp0t, he would know for sure he is kind of an expert.

I am running 7.5's with a +35 offset now.............. I just had to stiffen my rear suspension so I don't rub

[rdemattio]

Yeah I don't wanna have to touch my suspension at all, so I'm not getting these

Just food for thought. If you don't want to touch your suspension (not even springs of anything), wheels might look a little weird on the car since it will still have that massive wheel gap lol

 

[rdemattio]

Well the road here are so crappy I don't want to be scraping by lowering my car. Like you can be driving down the road and just see where everyone scrapes cause the road is downhill and then uphill litterally like a "V" and parking lots and curbs and stuff.

 

[MazdaSwede]

Id at least change the springs out and drop it a little bit. but thats just me. If you think it will work for you then go for it.

I hear ya on that. The roads around me blow. I still have stock suspenstion and its still hell. I will be lowering the car about an inch, maybe 1 1/2 still. I just have to be careful on how I am driving lol.

 

[MazdaSwede]

Biggest bumps we have around here are speed bumps. and we have no hills to speak of. unless youre counting the highway on ramps.

did you get this wheels? 40+ Offset will be right on the fenders. You need 48+ at least. factory are 52+.
are this the wheels?

what color is your 3? I missed that?

His car is black.

 

[active-trend]

if I may suggest, yes they will look good on it but want to look into the offset. might find them on the ones you need. might want to not debadge it...so you still have some chrome acccent to match wheels. Just suggestion (nana).
Oh yeah we are talking about a 3 right?
