my alternative REPLICA wheels (not Rota P45's)
 
for those who don't want to/feel the need to drop huge money on wheels

I got these:

Konig Runaway (RE30 replica)
18x9
+30
18lbs

they also come in bronze, shadow black, and hyper gray

I'm running 245/40's in the front and 265/35's in the back...could run some spacers to push them out a bit, but they're not awful as-is

Overall I'm very happy with them....and with the New England weather I'm not too worried about clipping a pothole

Don't know if they'd clear Brembos...

Good from afar

i like the rotas better but those are ok

DUBZRO Apr 9, 2008 01:52 PM

+1 decent from a short distance

If I'm on a budget I would personally much rather have P45s or TorqueRs. Look better and offer much better offsets. Just my 2 cents though, glad you are happy with your purchase. Nice photo too.

Rota makes an RE30 replica in 18 X 9 +30 too...small world

ni$mo350 Apr 9, 2008 02:38 PM

Looks good so far but I'd like to see more pics. Love the RE30's but no $$$$ Might be a good alternative... Someone should contact them and tell them to start making other sizes though...

Yep :) 18x9 +30, which is the wheel size we use for the Lancer Evolution. Not recommend for the Z as the wheel size is too narrow for the rear and too high of an offset. If you run a 10mm-15mm spacer in the rear the wheel sits better but that isn't optimal or really recommend for a Z.

Looks similar though, I wonder if the Konig wheel is JWL and VIA certified like the Rota wheel :icon38: We've been thinking about making a wider 18" SVN, would most likley have a 18x9 front wheel and 18x10/10.5 rear wheel.

I would be all over that.... Also maybe a 19x8.5/10 setup? I need to fill in the fender... :D

I really wish you'd start carrying more 19" wheel options in Z/G fitments. I would have purchased from you a long time ago

Nexx Apr 9, 2008 06:08 PM

i wanna see some rota D2's (work s1 3 piece replicas) on a Z. :D

zMOSESz Apr 9, 2008 06:47 PM

Dan, start getting us some 19's. I think you would have a huge sale increase.

WheelDude.com Apr 9, 2008 06:53 PM

Have you guys checked out our vendor for sale thread? We have a couple 19" staggered setups available now.

I have been discussing more 19" wheel setups in our meetings, they are in the works :)

For sure. I would love some budget wheels but 19s are a must have. Sure wish Rotas came in 19".

TSG-Z Apr 9, 2008 07:21 PM

Need closer pics of the rims before I past judgement!
