Why not? I'm usually left arguing that the people w/ the $200 ones are morons.

And I buy New Balances... and Konigs.

$100 a corner isn't middle road. ahaha.

what size wheel are you looking at getting? there are $250 a corner wheels from Rays, and there are PLENTY of non-knock offs out there that don't cost a testicle (or two...haha).

There was a set of gun blue wheels from either Volks or Rays that I would have LOVED to own, but the price was hilarious. +300 points if you can find what they are.

The Gun Blue is a gramLight color. If you were looking at 16x7 4x100 then it was the 57Maximum.

It was either the 57Maximum or the 57Optimise.

If I had to guess I'd say 57Maximum simply b/c that's the one available to view on TireRack

57Maximum

57Optimise

It was the second, and no, I don't shop TireRack you ass.

An old vendor here used to sell them. Needless to say he didn't last long.

How much are they?

That's the response I got when I asked others if I should buy a set of Konigs. Like I said, I'm a wheel noob and I go by what others here say.

Maybe it depends on the model. I searched konigs and found a lot of 800+ wheels, then I found a lot of 400 set wheels. Who knows. I'll probably end up getting a set of the $400 konigs.

not all konigs are knock offs, all of the ones that look good are knock offs.
