I'm 46 Years Old and Cheap: Konig Oversteers?

On a budget, those Oversteers are a heck of a bargain. DTD has them for only $628 for a set of 4. Add to that, they are nearly as light (20.9 lbs) as some of the flow formed wheels out there. Plus, that slightly concave look does well with the 10th gen. I say go for it.

Yeah, I think the Oversteer is the one.

Last year I found a set of 17x8's for 115 each on Amazon... but they are red. Grey's were 170 each if I recall at the time.

How are they holding up?

They still look new, but they are not on the car daily. The quality of the finish looks good, and I am sure these are quality wheels. They are noticeably lighter than the stock wheels too. A couple of important things to do if you buy a set: Centering hub rings and lug nuts. I bought plastic hub ring adapters since the center bores of the Konigs are larger than stock. There is sizing info in the sticky forums. Next, Konigs use conical lug nuts. I bought a set of lug nuts for these wheels at AutoZone. the taper is available on the Konig website or by calling them.

Hope this helps, and good luck!

Do it!

I don't do name brand stuff just for the fact of pleasing other people. No need for 3k-4k in just rims. Get what you like. They don't pay your car note.

Avid.1 wheels are super super cheap and have heard pretty good things. Anyone else?

I like Avid's designs, but they are heavier than the Konigs.

I too am in that 40 plus (barely) category and don't want to break the bank for something nice. I wasn't considering Konig but now after taking a look at their options I have reconsidered. I'm also browsing the local used wheels section for something different, that might be an option as well.

aw man you aren't too old! I'm debating between 18" konig oversteers, 17" enkei ts9 or ts10, among a few others. Those are the top contenders. 18" vs 17" is purely based on my budget- I prefer 18s. What did you end up decding?

I still haven't decided, but after more research I'm leaning toward the Avid1 SL02 in gunmetal. Problem is the 18 x 8.5 is sold out everywhere.

Today I purchased wheels and tires for the first time in my life. And I've been really set on the Konig oversteer as well! The place had to order the wheels and tires and will arrive in about 1-2 days. The thing I need help on is purchasing my own lug nuts rather than getting charged 120 on top of the amount I gotta pay for the set. The dude didn't really help much when I asked him what kind of lug nuts I should get or what type of material would be the best for the aftermarket ones..

So...can someone please please please let me know what lug nuts to get for a 2020 civic lx hatchback? Any help is very much appreciated! Thanks in advance!!

You can purchase whatever brand you want but this is the style and size you'll need.
