My new Konig Heliums

[T-MacK]

Hey whats up. I just got a new set of 15" Konig Heliums. They are flat black and weigh just a shade over 10lbs (10.7). They came 2 to a box and I could not believe how light they where! Compared to my MR7 16" Motegi rims these weigh less then half that. Just ordered a set of Falkens so they will be on the ride hopefully by the end of the week. Here's some pics, hope you like them.Later, T-Mack

I love my heliums. Mine are silver though. The weight is the best part about the wheels!

[T-MacK]

Sweet. I can't wait to get them on! I'm sure they will be very responsive when I mash the pedal. How long have you been riding them, no cracks or any issues beacause they are so light?

I have had them on since March of 05. The only issue that I have had is that one has a very miniscule flat spot on it from me hitting a nasty pothole in the road. Thats it, it balanced out, just took a few extra weights. The center caps like to rattle after awhile, so I just removed them.

I like em man.... nice pick!

[T-MacK]

^^ Thank's man. And yeah the wheel caps feel a little chesse. I was thinking of just trying to get some black honda emblem wheel caps of e-gay and throw them in for a little custom look.

I've been thinking about getting these rims too...just heard some people's have cracked over time. That is the biggest factor in changing my decision. But I may just end up getting them if I can spot a good deal here in Canada...

Did you weigh it accurately @ 10.7lbs or going by store spec??

[myHonda1]

i like 'em!

I will be buying these rims for my car later this year...or the subzeros

[freidaddy]

how much did they cost and where did you get them? Thinking about getting them myself.

im running them.. went from having 16 in gt3s to these.. acceleration is improved noticeably from the weight... i wont have anything but lightweight rims on anything i own from now on

[T-MacK]

^^ I here you. I'm still amazed at how light these rims are, all most like there to light to put on you're car. And yes I weighed them on my scales 10.7lbs. I have been eyeing these rims since they came out, and priced around town for them. I was getting ridiculous quotes like $800 and just said fuck it! I found a rim company in Texas on e-gay and bought them dirt cheap for $360 U.S (I live in Canada). So this was a great deal for me. Not to mention I picked up some new Falkens that came 30 minutes after my rims. So picks of the rims on the car tommorow.

[H2Bcivic]

[T-MacK]

^^ Tommorow afternoon, I'm off all day. There going on a EG so it should look extra tight. Can't wait.

[H2Bcivic]

cant wait to see pics. what color is teh car?

[T-MacK]

I got it from the Chrysler 300M called lava red. It looks like black from far away but the closer you get it turns a real deep purple/burgundy with a little gold flake in it when the sun hits it. I really like it , I allway's get compliments on it. Plus I've never seen another Honda that color.

[H2Bcivic]

[T-MacK]

Thank's.Im getting up early to do it. 8am. Later.

rep for you

[Agent T]

man i might have to invest in these if i decide not to get the Rotas, 360 shipped sounds a lot better than 430 shipped, not including lug nuts and tool lol

[Genuine Rolla]
