Well anyone who has followed any of my posts know i've been through shit with these wheels and finally after getting them, to find out they didnt fit... i ended up changin my hubs/rotors/pads/calipers/brake lines and got the new rims on...

Konig Sideways 18x7.5
Kumo Spectra 235/35
EBC Rotors
EBC Pads
Goodridge Lines
Stock non captive hubs
Stock Oreilly refurbished calipers
Ford Red Engine paint from 1998!

Here is one nice shot and the rest will be listed as links. Excuse some of the clarity because it was taken with my phone but they are large shots.

Very, very nice. You make wearing 18s look so easy! I too just finished a solid month of wheel shopping before settling on some konigs. Took a good long look at these, but didn't think they'd go well on a silver car. They look perfect on a black car though. The whole setup looks great. What's that stuff in the mr2 vent on the profile shot? looks white-ish purple on my screen.

 

yeah well i ordered and fully paid for them over two months ago.

guys at discount dont know crap from shit cool.gif

thanks man. i think they look good on black also. on silver still would of looked good. especially on your car with the hood.

i have dynamat in the vent. should be chrome and black. tryin to keep that sound in and out.

 

damn! gotta love the wheels, sweet tib long, it looks great! fing02.gif

 

thanks. i do cool.gif

 

Those rims look bad a** on your car, looking really good.

 

yay 5 spoke!! looks b*tchin'! congrats, everything looks great from here. i wish i could see that car in person. you have to get the engine up to spec with the body now.

vents look badass. what an improvement. i wouldn't think those are 18's.

 

Lookin great man. Aren't you glad you did the swap now? I know it was a PITA, everyone runs into some minor issues with a big project like that, but isn't it neat now?

Congrats bro, it's really lookin schweet.

How much them monsters weigh?>

 

looks great long

time for a rear disc swap wink1.gif

 

^^ yeah i have the brakes but dont want to replace them now and put in the new p valve....

Redz...it definetly was an adventure and it was worth doing but if i knew i needed new calipers i could of just invested more and went with big brakes. not sure how much they weigh though. less than my last konig's im sure. cool.gif



yeah i know. its slow as dirt. and its heavier than cement. even if i do a tranny swap and turbo it's still going to be slow.

its still on the agenda but not top priority.
