Well, I made a choice for the Exocet: Konig Dial-In 15 x8 ET25. They will need spacers in the rear to clear the rear frame but that’s less of a weight penalty than most of the 0 offset wheels and less of a wallet penalty than the Exocet-specific 6ULs (and they’re black, which is what I wanted). Here’s to hoping for speedy shipping.

Aw yus I’m really liking Koenig designs as of late, even if they have a stark resemblance to Enkeis at times. But given that a top local time attack team runs them I guess they are track proven. Have fun!

Hah, thanks! Yeah, they have a bit of an Enkei carbon copy feel - like the Advanti Storm wheels. They seem pretty strong and light (12.25lbs) which makes them a great autocross/road choice .

Nice.

I would suggest the gold p ainted ones, if not for the cop per frame.

I almost bought those, but I went with the bronze Helium’s instead. I like the Dial In’s much more, but didn’t want a black car with black wheels.

In the end I should have gone with the RPF1's, but I couldn’t justify half of the cars worth in wheels.

Same here on the price on the RPF1. Maybe I’ll do that eventually, but tire will make a bigger difference for now.

My car has some black body panels but the frame is all hammered copper. There’s no matching color for that :)

I am not ecstatic with the look of the Heliums, but they are very high quality for a wheel in it’s price range. I am repainting the car this winter to fix the clear coat damage and body match all the black plastic. My STI was Java Black Pearl, which is black with bronze flake, and it might make the wheels fit the car more. If not I will get the RPF1's, I will just buy a wheel a month. I just had to do something and settled on the Heliums. I was running the stock 13's, but it is impossible to find decent tires anymore.
