Hey All,

I will be purchasing 17" konig feathers with tires (preferably the General Exclaims), and I was wondering if anyone had a recommendation for a trustworthy online store that I can get them from?

Also, opinions on this wheel/tire setup would be appreciated. I've done some research, and I feel this fits me best. I'm just an average driver, who might sometimes hit a corner aggressively.

thanks!

 

I just ordered them from discount tire. Not online of course but its hard to pass up on their warranties. I will be running kuhmo ecsta mxs on a 17x7 wheel. Should have them by thursday ill let you know how the setup feels. and ill take some pics.

 

Love em....I ended up puting 215 Nitto neoGens on, but I've run the UHP's on my previous AudiTT and liked them a lot... Picked up my wheels at a local Ricer shop for $130... Almost 9 lbs lighter per wheel from my Mini-Weight 17's and runflats..

great combo!

 

yeah, rocky, let me know how it turns out.

hey, modshack, that's my exact car! Except I have a roof rack, but I love the look, so glad I'm doin it.

thanks for the help guys

nice, they are cheaper there... but I'm not sure about the tire selection.

Have you dealt with this company before? Are they trustworthy?

 

Good taste!....

Mine shipped today. The wheels were on backorder til Monday, so it took a bit longer than normal. They were very helpful and kept me informed every step of the way. You can call them and talk to them if you have questions. I have a friend in southern Ca. that swears by them, so I went ahead and did their mail-order thing. They have a "brick-n-mortar" store for the local folks. I'll post again when they arrive later this week.

I went with the 17x7 Konig Feather Black with 205/45/17 Falken Ziex912s for shoes. Can't wait to put em on.

 

have you heard good things about that tire? Is there a reason u chose it over the other options this place has?

I'm actually in So Cal. I guess I could take my car there to have it done.

 

The Falkens were a decent tire in the perf/wear/season/price range I wanted. They have received some favorable consideration. I originally chose Yokohama AVS ES-100s, but those were seriously backordered, and I felt I could run the Falkens with some confidence. Again, I'll post after they are on this weekend and let you know what I think.

 

great, thanks man!

 

Konig Feather Black with Falken Ziex ZE912 205/45/17 -



Tire is medium grade. I would prefer stiffer sidewall, and more grip, but cost was a factor. Overall, getting better after 500 miles and rolling.

Time for the springs.

[edit]

I also wanted to mention that Performance Plus Tire was a pleasure to deal with. Everything went smoothly, they shipped fast and the wheels were well packed. I had no issues at all.

 

Hey All,

My $0.02 on Performance Plus. I was there a couple of weeks ago . . . the sales persons there were very friendly and they had a large selection of wheels. They also repair road/curb rash on wheels. I'd give them 2 thumbs up.

 

Has anyone seen this wheel in the silver version? I'm thinking of this for a pure silver car. I like the black too but my roof is matching silver so I don't think black will work...
They call it matt silver and I am assuming that it is similar to the S-Lite color.
Cheers!

 

I've been wondering the same thing. I'm having a hard time trying to find wheels that will match my silver roof and bonnet stripe.
