Konig Helium wheels do NOT work with new 14mm lug bolts.
I just got my new Heliums the other day, and wanted to report that the bolt holes are not big enough to work with the 14mm bolts on the GP, the R56, or the first-gen cars built after July of 2006.
I saw this coming and had already installed a set of TSW's 14mm/12mm conversion lugs, so the wheels work fine for me - I just wanted to post this in case anyone did a search later on trying to find out if they'd fit.

I got them at www.buywheelstoday.com. Ordered on Tuesday on they showed up on Friday. The nice thing about that site is that they charge $90 apiece for the Heliums, whether you want black, bronze, or silver. Most places charge $90 for the black and $100 for the other colours.
I don't have the tires mounted yet, but I'll post pictures when I do. They're my autocross wheels, and I have a race Sunday, so the pics should be up before too long.
