They look cheap and they don't fit particularly well. I'd rather run stock wheels than these. Just my 2c.

Agree, Widths are weak IMO.

those are not regamasters.... those are 3 piece Koenigs... They are definitely worth at least $800. I usually see them around $1k-1.2k. They are not cheap wheels, 3 piece + forged make them high quality. Cheap wheels are enkei's or rotas or knockoff brands. I'm guessing these once sold for $2.5-3k per set and I've never seen any TRUE 3 piece wheel that was cheap and I've purchased/sold and seen many different wheels.

Sizes aren't weak, close to OEM although the offset is a little lower. You might be able to get away with 215/245 tires and no roll (will need a little bit of camber added if lowered). I think they will look great, someone on here had Koenigs and took some pics, they looked great.

P.s. if you by mistake used that picture but meant to use ones of actual regamasters - those aren't cheap either, they cost around $2-2.5k new and used sell around $1.4k and are forged high quality wheels (lightweight 1 piece design)

Anyway I would buy the set if they are either 3 piece Koenigs or the Regamasters. Both are legit.

How do you feel about getting these? New in the box and non-staggered? http://www.vrwheels.com/koneig-brand...ox-p-4266.html

Those will work well, 245 or 255 tires non staggered would be ideal.
