BoostinBen Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 So im looking to pick up a cheap set up extra wheels for the dime. Below are some crude photochops of a couple options options im concidering ... I have rota RB's now they are 16x7 +25 and the fitment if good with no rolled fenders or nothing..im on 280 struts im thinking id like to keep the fitment something similar or the exact same so I dont have to make any big changes that would make the rotas look funny if I swapped back and forth .. thats why im leaning tawords the konig countersteer or xxr 522's they are the exact same 16x7 +25 the konig screech are 15x7 +15 which is only a 10mm diff so I think I could get away with a mild fender roll maybe even just run some stretched tires. Some of the chops are worse than others just because its hard to find a good picture of the wheel on the net .. I think the countersteers got it worst .. I think they would look better than whats in the picture below.. kind of a dark bronze color Original: Konig Countersteer XXR 522 Konig Maxxim Screech Konig Screech gold Quote Link to comment
Jesse C. Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 I like the Konig Countersteer wheels Quote Link to comment
69FJWagon Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Ben the countersteers are damn near the same as the Rota grids and I think they are cheaper and lighter... Quote Link to comment
Spades Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 in my opinion, the rota's are the best looking wheel you posted...but thats just my opinion Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Konig Maxxim Screech +1 Quote Link to comment
DISLEXICDIME Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 are the xxr's as heavy as they say ? 25 pounds ! Quote Link to comment
BoostinBen Posted February 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 hmmm your right they look heavy ... 25 pounds id doubt that but they do have pretty thick spokes. my guess would be 16-18 pounds but hey thats just a guess.. Quote Link to comment
bonvo Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 I like the Konig Countersteer wheels x2 but in a smaller size like 14s or 15s Quote Link to comment
71DIMER Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Hey Ben, I say go with the Konig Countersteer, they look sweet with the bend/curve of the spokes. Quote Link to comment
BoostinBen Posted February 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 yeah thats what im leaning tawords .. the ones with the correct offset are actually the countersteer R. They have the concave face instead of the flat face like the rota grids and regular coutersteers... I think they would look pretty sweet .. ... something different anyways .. Quote Link to comment
