They look nice I think but the brand is cheap and not well-standing among sellers who tell me they are not very durable...finish peeling and all.

I heard the same type of things about Montegi's when I asked back in December. I went with 17" Enkei.

They look like Tantrums, actually, Tantrums are bite off of some other kind of wheel to.... actually, the Whole Konig Line of wheels is bite off.... if you want some real brand rims, go for Racing Harts or Volks, or 5Zigen (not sure if those are real) but anyways... back to the point, i heard of some problems with Montegi as well, but i heard similar things of other brands too though. So I don't know.. I am sure the manufacturer offers some sort of warranty for like 1 year, if they last that much, they should last as long as all other rims.

I always wonder how many people really know that Konig does not make ANY rims. They only resell.

Didn't know that... they put a "Konig" center cap on it... figure they make it. but I am ossuming, you're saying they are "Rota" brand. Konig does present a new kind of wheel every year or so...
