Default PS Request Konig Lace on 95 SC

Hi all, I've done a search and Tirerack doesn't offer this wheel (not that you can see all that well what it really looks like).

If someone would be so kind we would like to see this wheel on our SC. Those stock wheels just have to go.





Thanks so much, and if you need a better pic w/ the car facing the same way as the wheel please let me know.

Travis

Since I've been so bold as to ask for help I'll put up the other 2 in the running and see if we could see them on the car as well.

We really like the Lace but are a bit unsure if the black lip is to....something. We don't want the car to look the least bit distasteful, ricer, etc (sorry, I hate the monster wheels with rubber bands that jack a sporty car up to look like a 4x4, hence 18's are as far as I'm willing to upsize)





Thank you for the help and input.

hope you plan on lowering the car, cause even if you put 18s its gonna look 4x4 on stock suspension.

My apologies, Moderator please move this to the Photoshop Forum.

I wouldn't mind lowering the car slightly (used to be a staple for all my cars) but at 18" with 40 series tires this should be fairly close to the current ride height and fender gap should it not? We aren't teenagers anymore, I'll first see if my wife notices too much ride degradation (this is really her toy) from the lower profile tires, if not I'll work on further mods

Here are the Konigs



As for the other wheels you posted, do a search under HP Evo wheels and I'm pretty sure you should find what you're looking for.

And thank you for the Evo tip, I found shots of a gorgeous car appearing to run the same setup I have planned and it looks great. Kinda confirms what my calculations and experience would say about ending up with approximately the same fender gap I have now (which is livable).

Which leads me to ask Hellfish, are you just one of those that feels like if the tires aren't tucked then its way too high? Or do you have some other reason why a 1:1 diameter change would result in an appearance different than what exists currently?

Thanks! I'm lowered with some Tanabe NF210 springs. They give a subtle drop but I've been itching to go a bit lower haha
