What do you guys/girls think?

I'm almost sexually attracted to Konig Reign 18's and the best part, is that they are only $167 each!!!!!! If you want to see them on "my car" go to www.tires.com and click the link on the left. When the page comes up click the "wheels" link. After that page comes up, you will be given a choice to choose a metro area, so pick whatever the hell you want. When the page comes up asking the make and model and all of that good stuff, scroll down to the "see wheels on your car" link. Click it, let it load and select Mazda, RX-7, 86-91, Black, and go to Konig. Go to the Reigns(which are five spoked) and select size 18. Tell me what you guys think. Also, if anyone out there would like to post a picture of the wheel, please do it cause I don't know how to. Thanks.

That wheel is not worthy of your car. Primarily a FWD wheel. If you want a 7" wide wheel at least get a mid to low 30mm offset.

Rishie

I'm sure there are other cheap lightweight options with lower offsets for the FC.

18/19 wheel sizes are more for show than go in my book!

Do what you want but know the consequences.

Yes, you guys all have a good point, but these are the cheapest for the simple stylistic design that I am after. I WAS interested in the Enkie GTV's, but DAMN those are expensive for the size I want. I've got my mind set on 18" five, or staggered ten spoke wheels that look good. As of right now I have some three spoke 16" that I plan on keeping for autocross, if I ever get a chance to get to Sebring, that is.


P.S., Thanks alot for posting that pic ttb.
