I wanna hear you're opinions. I'm kinda torn between the Konig Wideopen, and the Konig Flatout. Probably gonna get one of the two but it's so damn hard to decide. Both 15x8, with a +25 offset. I think i like the look of the Wideopen more, but it weighs more at about 13.6 lbs, and requires a decent fender roll. The Flatouts I think look pretty good, but not as good as the Wideopens, yet are lighter at about 12.4 lbs. and apparently if going on an NB (which is what they'd go on) don't require a fender roll if you run about -1.5 degrees of camber. If you have either let me know what you think. And if you hate both please keep it to yourself. I don't care if you don't like them.

I vote flatout

 

[xjdesertfox]

if they both have the same wheel specs + same tires, why would one need a fender roll and the other not need one?

either way, i vote flatout, Im getting a set. And curvature of the spokes on the wideopen bugs me

 

[Cngo]

I say flatout

Not sure exactly. I don't know if its just how the wheel is made or what. That's just what it says on Goodwin Racing's website. They say the Wideopen needs a fender roll and all it says with the Flatouts is that if they're going on an NB they'll plug and play as long as you have -1.5 degrees of camber. Not sure what the difference is if there actually is any at all.

Same wheel specs means theyll fit EXACTLY the same.

Girl in my avatar is "bryci" just google it, first result.

An inch is an inch, and a mm is a mm. They will fit the same. Use your head.

Oh I know bryci lol, just didnt look like her (the pic is rather small)

sorry to thread hijack

I vote Flatout. They're lighter than the Wideopen's. Also the Wideopen's look too similar to the RP-F1's

and flatouts look too similar to CE28's...hmmmmm

 

[Subie_greg]

Yeah you're right they do. Doesn't change my vote though

 

[babyhands]

I vote for the flatouts.

That's a dangerous thing sometimes. Lol! Yeah I kinda figured both will fit the same. And either could fit just fine or need a fender roll. Just see when I get em.

flatouts are EXACT replicas of ce28n. every degree of curvature in the spokes and the design is 100% replica. the only difference is it says RAVs instead of RAYS on the wheels. they are GREAT light weight wheels and when an 18 wheeler hit my wheel it bent and didn't crack.

 

[xjdesertfox]

ill be rocking some RAV's flatouts soon in white =P

phrenetik, what size tires are those? 225 rs3's?

 

[atlnb]

i voted flatouts just to make the poll 50-50 and they look better

 

[SR20DE_MAN]

I like them both, but the Flatout wins it for me. Why? Easier to clean. Hahaha! Less sharp angles that are a pain to clean. The spokes blend right into the upper lip & hub area.

 

[Braineack]

Most of the time I'm wideopen, but every now and again I'm flatout.

 

[Fireindc]

I like both of these wheels. not enough pics of either on miatas though.
