It wont let me get the direct link but choose the color red
The Konigs are the Tractions
The Enkeis are the FLC-01
Im leaning towards the Konigs since well they seem original but just wanted to see what all of you thought

enkeis RPF1s are the only ENKEI's i would get...TOPGEAR post a pic, show this guy you need to spend a lil more to get TOTAL SATISFACTION + RESELL VALUE of the wheels, especially BLACK ONES

Yeah since they will be my summer wheels im not trying to go to far out with them. Not saying I'm a cheap ass but there is not point in spending a grand a wheel or something unless its a show car. Said that I do like the Enkeis good brand sexy look and not to expensive.

I just want to know between the two suggested rims which one do you think would look best on my car the only other appearance mods I will do is fender strakes and a boot lip spoiler for the back. So the rims would be the most notable mod done on the exterior. I want a stock look but with a little extra.

I would personally go with Rota WAYYY before I would get anything Konig puts out.

the RPF1s are probably one of the most popular wheels on the board (probably too much in my opinion) and you don't like them and like konigs which no one (including myself) like. sooo.....if you want the opinion of the board, you're going to be getting our opinion which seems to differ drastically from yours.

oh, ask XDEEDUBX about the strakes. i think he's the one who likes them the most ;) just be sure to also mention to him taht you're leaning toward konigs over enkeis.

I mean the enkeis were my first choice but its seems the konigs are well different and no one seems to have them I like to be original thats all.

Yeah , XDEEDUBX can get custom strakes and probably get you them for free! He had them on his RED 8' :), He's also a big KONIG fan...over ENKEIS :yesnod: He also knows what paint to use so u can paint ur calipers red...:)

Ok so I have decided on the enkeis so who do I contact on this site for that? In an earleir post it was mentioned one of the vendors could hook me up with a good deal. Also I was thinking of going with either black or carbon fiber fender strakes anyone have those they'd be willing to sell or what ever?
