Question Which Konig wheels?

I'm curious which Konig wheels you guys like better. I'm getting 18x8's for a Nighthawk Black or Rallye Red 07 Si with HFP kit and I'm painting the calipers red. Do you like the Konig Unkown's



or Konig Sideways?

Yeah, but everyone and their mom has the Unknowns. Not that they're bad, but they aren't very original. Unknown is kind of a bad name for them.

Oh, I gotcha. I thought you meant you were ready to drop $1200 for just the wheels. Do you have an idea of what tires you want for them? I was thinking about Michelin Pilot Exalto PE2 which is what Honda uses for their "summer tires" anyway. They're supposed to be really good tires but I don't know if they make them for 18's.

Personally, I'm not a huge fan of either, but I like the second ones much more than the first. I would go all black rims if I were you, would look real cool with the black or red car and red calipers.

I've been looking for all black rims that have a similar shape to the Sideways but I haven't been able to find them. Any suggestions?
