    Konig Deception Wheels

    I know that these aren't going to catch on with TT owners due to the 8 inch wide specs (and because they probably wont fit without some serious spacers), but I thought I'd share since I have gotten a surprising amount of people asking about my ADRs. Hell I would buy these for daily use if I had the funds for the purchase and the tires just because ADRs aren't made anymore.

    Wheel Details - Discount Tire

    :edit: I just found out that you might be able to get these wheels in 18x9 according to this website, as well as that they on the heavier side from 24-27 lbs, depending on what size you get them in. So for a cool looking wheel in my opinion, there is still hope for TT owners.

    There are good cars that get you from point A to point B, and then there are great cars, that get you into trouble.

    The tricky part will be the offset.

    If I can fit my 35 mm offset wheels on gen2 brakes with just 2-3 mm spacers, there's potential for these. So spokes design too. Not just the offset.

    I meant without a spacer. Not crazy about ever using a spacer.

    But for those that can get away with it, these rims are very nice! I had a set of konigs on my supra and just loved them.

    Understandable. Sure I would prefer to not have spacers, but I have a hard time finding wheels that I really like. There are some that I'm ok with, but they don't "pop" like my ADR's or these do. Of course, I'm into the flashy stuff.

    Even if they weigh the same as my NA OEM wheels (each with tires)? Even then, they aren't for sale. Sorry dude...
