I love the Konig Imagines. They are similiar in look to the R90's. They weigh 20.7lbs for the 17" which is slightly lighter than the R90's, but about 3lbs heavier than the stock 16" rims. So it is not too bad with weight. I have seen the wheels for $150 at most retailers by my house, which is very attractive as well. I believe that Superchrgdmini had these on his car, but they were 18" and they looked really cool.

The Only problem with the hp wheel is that you need a STUD converter.... I was going to get it, but when I heard Stud Converter.......................I RAN!

Classic Auto Campus an MCO sponsor, can get you the R90s for significantly less than the dealer option price. Check them out and tell them MCO sent you.

Converting to studs is cool, we do it all the time for track use - NOT TO BE CONFUSED with ADAPTING BOLT PATTERNS - wich is VERY Dangerous
