New Wheels!

just ordered some new 17" matte black konig feather's!

super excited

couldnt decide between those and the $250 OZ Ultralegerra's (which are so sexy! plus that CF cap they come with! MM!)

also, the $200 TD PR 1.2's were a big contender,
i really like the anthracite color they come in.

but ended up getting the konigs,
ive curbed my s-lites in the past
and was deathly afraid of curbing the OZ's out of fear of price of replacement
and deathly afraid of curbing the TD's out of fear of it breaking

dont mean to spread rumors, im sure theyre very strong, but read a post by gnatster of a race day two days after i met guy about how his TD PR broke during a race
besides, he's pretty sure it wasnt the wheels fault at all

never-the-less i was a little apprehensive on those

but yeah, ill post a post-install-post with pics probably around christmas time (i bought two and am receiving the other two as gifts)
