Look good. Update this thread when you actually have the wheels on your car with pictures.

Because he wants fresh opinions instead of what people thought in 2004.

The Konigs looks good to me. Keep in mind that I kinda like the stock rims on my '08, especially when I look at them over the fan for $100 bills I'll be able to keep.

Heck, they even look pretty good over a fan of twentys.

First of all, there was no need at all to make another thread...Konigs are very crappy rims that look like crap too. You dont have an escalade or a civic...You have a Z...Do not get konigs...Then again, its your car...No one else but you and wangstas will like them but hey whatever!

Konig sucks. Just save your money and get rims worth owning or follow the good advice you have already been given and stay stock

The Konig Lace wheels look very good. Regardless of what others say, I think they would look good on the Z.

imo
konig lace not a bad looking wheel
you are going to get walked all over because they are konigs though.
just an observation but since you seem to care what others think...
save up your money and get volk/advan/work/ray to please everyone and avoid getting flamed.

the lace's look pretty nice. just like the old school BBS's.

but whats with the title? WHY NOT KONIG LACES? made me thing someone said something bad about them. I have had the monsoons back in the day on my 87 bmw 325 is. I liked them and they were pretty durable as well.

So if you get the lace i hope you have the interior leather to match!!

Leather and lace...Mmmmm!!

wheels doesn't looks that bad, but I'd not get them. If you like them, go for it.. it's your car....

In my opinion wheel spacers(25mm-30mm) and a drop(coils) would be a better investment... it'll look sick and you'll have some more time to save some money and browse around for a good set of wheels.

that wheel design actually looks pretty rigid. the 3k+ wheel fan club will shoot me but I think they look a lot like BBS design.

I think the design looks decent and may even look good on the Z. My personal preference would be to get some Work / Volk / SSR / BBS / Insert Expensive High-Quality Brand Here. But at the same time, I would buy a Fossil before getting a Breitling, so I'm all over the map. Get what you think you will want to see on your car everyday.

To me, Konigs are one step above Rotas. Still pieces of sh|t wheels, but at least they are original lol. Have you seen that Enki thread with the different color RPFs? That would be a much better solution.
