Default Konig Lace look-alike?

http://www.discounttiredirect.com/direct/f...rw=8&vid=006093

i really like this wheel from konig. unfortunately, tire rack does not carry konig so i can't work with our sponsor here to buy this wheel. so does anyone know of any other wheel that looks like this one, i can't find any on tirerack's website.

i'm looking for a wheel with:
a good lip
thin spokes in the lace's pattern
the spokes come out of the wheel from the center and are angled back in towards the outside of the wheel.
and the spokes are straight and not curved
(look at the link)

thank you

if you want staggered, you will have to go with the 18's as they do not make the staggered fitment in 17's. i know because I have been trying to get konig to make me a set of 17x9 48 offset, but they keep saying no.

Have you looked into the stern wheels?

Just get them from the discount tire, they're pretty light for 18s and they're a good price.

i just checked out the stern website. the hyper mesh looks okay but i'd rather have more spokes placed closer together. and the hyper mesh II would look almost perfect if it didn't have the multi piece design with the bolts on the outer edge but i might still consider it

the kyowa evolve wheel looks great, i'll ask tire rack how much it is now and if the price is right then i'll get it. but the only thing that i dislike about the style is that the spokes connect to a step which then connects to the lip. i'd much rather have the spokes connect straight onto a flat lip. but this won't kill me. i do love the red stripe on the flat black rs trim

thankz so far guys, any more suggestions??
