Pic: My new (used) black Konig Impacts on my red 88 'Vert!
Well, I am so excited about my new rims, I had to post a crappy pic.
Car is a stock 88 RX7 'Vert, for now. Rims are 17x7.5" Konig Impact, 42mm offset, 21 lbs each. Tires are Kumho 712 215/40, 235/40 Got them off my MR2 roomie. They fit pretty good - not perfect, but pretty good. Pimpin' street rims, and they change the attitude of the car fo' sho'! I'm going to get some sticky tires for the 'Vert rims for autox/track events. Best part was the price - CHEAP! :P BIG pic, so I'll link it - I think it's 1600x1200 (CRAPPY pic, sorry, better ones coming when the car's cleaned up)! Here ya go! http://www.project240sx.com/FCwheels...wrimssmall.JPG I love 'em. :) -Jacob (Edited to include resized pic) |
doesn't do anything for me, but I am glad you like it

I didn't want the big ass pic on the post, that's why I posted the link - I've edited the post to include a link to both the bigass pic, and a smaller, more dial-up friendly 400x300 pic. Same pic, same crappy quality, but it gives you an idea at least.
I mostly just posted this to show off because I'm happy about the rims (trust me, if you had the same deal offered to you, you'd take it too), and to answer questions about fitment which ALWAYS seem to pop up on here. Hopefully, I've helped someone out! -Jacob |
how much u get them for? kinda curious now :p:
|
Cheap. :) Put it this way...if I sold the 'Vert rims, I'd have less in the whole car than the rims/tires were new.
|
Mega sicc!1!
|
i think its just me but whenever i see a black wheel i think "spare"... i dont know why but i just do... glad ya like them :)

looks good jacob
|
It would look better if that thing wasnt riding higher than a rock crawling jeep :) Time for some lowering springs!!
|
DK - thanks!
Pip - agreed, but for now, it handles really well, and I think I'm going to autocross it in a stock class for awhile, so lowering springs would knock me out...I'll probably keep it "highered" for awhile, and get some NICE suspension later - after the motor swap, paint, and interior. |
Took a couple more pics today:

I like white rims on red 7s....I would post a pic but the server wont let me...........they look weird to me.....good buy tho, they are expensive.
|
Cloud- very clean s4 vert-
But I agree with NZ. I guess I am a purist, but I can't see why anyone in their right mind would get rid of the BBS rims- so light, and so sexy... |
lowering your car is allowed in stock classes...
|
i think those rims are real tight, i think i might have to get sum for my 87 fc now
|
They look good! It's different.
|
speaking of cheap, im getting some new rims too. came off of a Mits. Eclipse 2004 16" for $200 USD including tires!!
A friend works at a tire warehouse said the guy got 17" ones. They just want to get rid of the 16" rims |
i think they look really good!! And once you lower you car, even better!!
Only thing i recommend is, paint the caliper/rotor even if its just sliver, so that there isnt any rust or anything like that. I hate seeing nice wheels displaying some rusty rotors. |
Don't you guys know how to polish paint? those would look 10x better polished black.
|
im not a fan of black rims but as long as you like it
