KA620 Posted October 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 no i totally understand. I just wanted to know before hand so that i can contact the guy i go through for my wheels/tires so that i save him the hassle. The rims arent too costly and i think i can recoop a bit of the money from selling my mags with pretty decent tires anyway. Quote Link to comment
69FJWagon Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 oh alright, because the konig countersteer aren't offered in a +10 only the Rota Grid are. Am i right? If you see that the countersteer are offered in +10 please please link me. Thanks the site you copied the pictures from JLB MOTORSPORTS sells them in a +10 you just have to ask that is the same place Joma bought his wheels from Quote Link to comment
KA620 Posted October 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 do you know if Joma rolled the lips on his fenders and what size tire he is running? Quote Link to comment
69FJWagon Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 do you know if Joma rolled the lips on his fenders and what size tire he is running? I dont know his truck is having some stuff done at DGR FAB so he didnt drive it last night...either way it never hurts to roll em' and I think he said a 215 45 in front and a 225 45 in the rear but I'm not sure I ask him today Quote Link to comment

69FJWagon Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 Anytime...post some pics of your Z, is it the one with the ZG flares and gunmetal grey paint on your site... if so I have been checking your site for updated video for along time any new dyno or driving video??? I have had pics of that car in my screen saver at work for over a year now. very nicely done Quote Link to comment
KA620 Posted October 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 haha speaking of new video, i just have to get it edited with the old version of the video so i can make a complete compilation. Im going to try and get it done this weekend because i have to re-record the stuff from autox since my last computer crashed. I might upload some small clips so you can get an idea of how the new setup sounds... Quote Link to comment
shane_lxi Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 lynch: those aren't nismo rims on that 620. they are volk te37's i think, somebody just said it... Nope, the spokes on real te37's curve from the lip to the lug seat on the rwd offset options (just like the rota grid, which is an exact knock off of the te37). I think the ones on the 620 are a discontinued nismo wheel. (real te37's) and the Grid is a MUCH nicer wheel than the Konig version :P Quote Link to comment
KA620 Posted October 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 I actually have the Konig right now on my integra and ive spoken with JLB motorsport between the Rota Grid and the konigs before i bought mine. Dustin said that since the Konigs have come out, they are a much better replica to the real Volk TE37s compared to the Rota Grid. Quote Link to comment
shane_lxi Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?! The konig looks NOTHING like a volk te37!! Volk te37: Konig Countersteer: Rota Grid: Quote Link to comment
KA620 Posted October 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 i was talking in reference to my 4-lug konig countersteer. I can obviously tell the difference between the 6-lug wheels. Dont get all shook up. This thread is going completely off topic anyway. All i wanted to know is to see who was running the wheels i listed, no other rants needed. Quote Link to comment
shane_lxi Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 lol. Not getting worked up, I just dont like the konig version :( . Ugly Quote Link to comment
KA620 Posted October 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 have yet to see any truck guys with the grids in 6-lug so i really dont know what to think. My konigs on my integra actually look exactly like the TE37s, so thats what i was basing my opinion off of. Quote Link to comment
tnip Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 as far as i know, on this site, the only person with either of these wheels is makibaka. and he only has the one pic and hasn't been active lately. Quote Link to comment

Makibaka has been active lately...doing some wiring, mounting tires on the Konigs ohh and getting married and doing the honeymoon thing his truck is coming along nicely and should have the wheels on the truck by mid next week I will have him update his project post and post pictures next week or I will take pictures and post them for him Quote Link to comment
tnip Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 i meant not active on here. i don't know him but if i had to guess i would think he's probably not the type to be inactive in life. Quote Link to comment
69FJWagon Posted October 19, 2007 Report Share Posted October 19, 2007 I know, I was just explaining why he hasnt been active here... and yes he is a very active person and a very good guy between him and Fineline living within 15 minutes of me I have alot to shoot for if I want my truck to be anything close to theirs :) Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted October 20, 2007 Report Share Posted October 20, 2007 wow, those wheels are HOT...I'm still holding out for some 6lug rewinds (panasport/watanabe/minilite) I got a set. :D Wish they weren't 14x6. :mad: Quote Link to comment

Konig Counter steers 16x8 bought from Dustin at JLB: How the trucks sits with 225/50 tires in front and 245/50 in rear: Front Passenger side: Rear Passenger side: Rear driver side: I didn't take pics of the front driver side because the fender is smashed and wouldn't give a clear idea of fitment with a straight fender (fitment would be same with the passenger side anyway). You can tell from the pics that my rear axle is sitting a little towards the passenger side. I wanted to keep my 245s for the rears (need meat for all that turbo traction goodness), but a 225 looks best (can't find a 235/50 for the life of me!). 225s in the front will work with a little bit of negative camber, fender rolling, and maybe a little bit of fender pulling outwards. 215 or 205 would fit better if the camber's going to be 0. Rolling fenders is a must. Quote Link to comment
Jester Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 Good reading! Now I know what it will take to put 225's on my truck( as soon as I buy one). :lol: Jester Quote Link to comment

BIRD'S NEST :eek: J/P. It's great have these guys so close to me. I just wish I had more time to shoot the shit with them. AND I MISSED THAT MEET WITH ALL CRAZY BURN OUTS :mad: Quote Link to comment

datsunfreak Posted March 9, 2008 Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 Yay! You drug up a 6-month-old thread to post something completely irrelevant to the topic. Good job! :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment
