I am interested in the Konig Subzero 17" wheels. Do you think this is a good deal?

I can order just the rims there on eBay for $435 + shipping (which costs $59), or I can order the rims and the tires from wheelmax.com for $1099 + shipping. Which do you think is better?

Also, you don't think that silver is too bright, do you?

Thanks!

 

The difference is negligible.

 

So, basically if I buy the rims on eBay, I would end up spending enough on tires to not make much difference...

 

Depends on the tires. Will wheelmax.com mount and balance the tires and send you hubcentric rings?

 

Call sears or NTB. They were running a special on goodyear 17" tires (whatever the OEM mustang size is( for $99 each. Worth checking out!

 

I know they will mount and balance, I don't know about the hubcentric rings, my rims didn't need them. You can haggle with Wheelmax too, I got them down $200.

Check this place out, too.

They have the Rota Subzeros in '17 for $550, and shipping is free! The advantage to this place is that you can choose from different colors. I noticed you had a black Max, and IMHO, the steel grey and gunmetal would look sweet. Hope this helps!

 

Yup. And the Rotas and Konigs are made by the same people.

 

Thanks! I was waiting for an opinion on the color. I think you're right about the steel grey... that would look pretty cool.

 

Those rota rims come with center caps too which IMHO make the wheel look alot better. Keep in mind people these rims are also very light, around 16lbs. each for the 17x7.5, and I think 17lbs. for the 18x7.5.

$600 is a pretty good deal for those 18's in gunmetal...I might have to consider those birds.
