Here are my new Konig Feathers from Alta laced up with Bridgestone Potenza G 019 Grids in 215/45/17

Alta (Jarid) was top notch and I'd certainly recommend and will be using again in the future

17 x 7 Konig Feathers in silver w/ Kumho Ecsta XS KU36 215/45/17, I decided not go with flat black rims because that seems the most popular choice among black mini owners. I'll post better photos this coming weekend.



From a charity car show from this past weekend.

I like the contrast with the black. Not everyone needs the murdered out look!

Lots of cool wheels. Seems like 18's are not as common due to bolt pattern and I'm not a fan of multi-fit wheels. I'm thinking of going with R113 machined face on my BRG JCW after looking at all of these pictures.

When you make the next post, click the little mountain pic at the top. Then insert the address for where you have the pic hosted. (Like your flickr, photobucket, website or similar.) You can also upload them into your gallery and link from there.

Does that help at all?

We look forward to seeing your pics soon!
