I'm thinking about selling my 17" Konig Tantrums. They're also missing their center caps.=/ I'd rather go with a nice lightweight 16" rim -- perfect balance of looks/performance.. any suggestions?

Big wheels just don't do it for me after realizing some of the effects of a larger rim such as 'static weight', degraded cornering, and TERRIBLE ride quality.

Konig Tantrums go for about $140 per wheel, but since two of them are fairly scrapped up, and one of the rims has a slight bent on the lip, how much money do you think I could get for them?

If I got anywhere from $350-400 for them (priced new @ $580+) I'd be a happy camper. fing02.gif The fact that they're discontinued might give me a chance at selling them for a good price!!

Don't know how much they'd go for ... how are the tires?

dude, check out this thread for your 17 vs 16 questions http://www.rdtiburon.com/index.php?showtopic=943&hl=

You have a bent rim? Or just some curb rash (major?) ?
Take some pix, I might actually be interested (depending on what you decide for the price of course)

Tires are great! Would hate to get rid of them! They're absolutely beautiful tires though.. Falken 205/40s front and Ventus 205/40s aft. I don't know how much the tires would go for either, but there's plenty of treadwear left on 'em.

I get outstanding traction from these tires, I don't know what they're rated either? Dry AND wet traction, as well!! There's something about those tires.

I will definitely take some pics of all four wheels once I clean them. Only two of the wheels are scrapped, and not so badly, and they are only the rims on the right side (due to parallel parking and what have you)

One of the rims has a slight "bend" on the lip, but it is barely noticeable. Didn't notice myself until a friend examining my rims/wheels pointed it out to me hehe.

Got a close up pic of one of my rims on my CarDomain... www.cardomain.com/id/2kshark

Nicest rim Konig had to offer, since they're discont'd..=/
