What is the offset on the Konig Rewinds?
What is the largest tire that a person can fit on them without having to modify the car?

That the fact the the rewinds are only availble in a +20 offset with the 4x110 bolt pattern is lame. The 4x114.3 guys can get it in a 0 offset. At least the B Bombs are available in a 0 offsett an 4x110. I am getting a set of those.

It's a Japanese-import meshie with the 4x114.3 pattern for my SE. I purchased them used here on the board a few years ago. People tell me that it's made by the same as the SSR but the hub cover says "Biocco" and is the "Super Strada model. Sounds like they copied an Italian-sounding name.

I have one of the wheels at the shop (thanks to the damn potholes around here). I'll check the offset. I want to say they are +20 but I just can't remember.

P.S. It is a 3 piece meshie. Very unique in that manner.

also: if anyone needs a pair of BBS meshies in 15x7 (non-SE bolt pattern), I have a pair for sale cheap. Boxed and set to go.

Sale pending on these. They need re-finishing in a bad way.
