Hey everyone,

I'm looking to buy a new set of rims and tires since my stock ones a. look like shit and b. are destroyed from the potholes in NYC.

So far I'm thinking of getting the Konig Trouble 16x7 rims in gunmetal.

Can anyone tell me if these will def. fit (proper offset, no rubbing with tires, etc), and if anyone happens to know the weight of them that'd helpful to.


I'm also probably going to get the General Tire Exclaim UHP W rated 205/45-16...I've heard nothing but good things about them, the price is great and a couple guys I know with GTO's are happy with their performance.

So what do you guys think? Any other suggestions on the wheels? I'm open to ideas.

Thanks! fing02.gif

 

I'm more of a fan of the thicker, 5 spoke rims.. but those are nice. If you do end up buying them.. let us know and post some pics fing02.gif

 

those could get beat up just as bad as your stock wheels. jsut be careful to not hit the big potholes to much and theyll hold up. they look nice

 

Yeah man def. The pot hole avoidance isn't a problem for me...apparantly it was an issue for the previous owner mad.gif

The rim size is 16x7 4bolt-114.3 40offset, that should be fine right? (This is my first time buying rims and I want to absolutely make sure everything is cool)


editted for less "quote-age"

 

Please don't quote the post above yours.

 

graphites are too played out, imo.

 

Excellent choice man, go for it !!!

 

Maybe true, but as long as it makes me happy that's what really matters nana.gif fing02.gif

 

Konig Troubles are very popular wheels for Tiburons. There's a guy on here with 19" troubles on his tibby.

I think it's a good choice. What colour Tiburon do you have?

 

Silver.

Got any pics Trouble's (such a stupid, stupid name) on aTiburon?

19'' is WAY too big for the pot holes and daily driving I do. Form always follows function so I think 16'' rims would be the best choice, since I'll get to go up a wider tire but still have light weight and drivability all year.
