So wait...if Konig isn't a "bad company at all", what the hell is?

Bottom-of-the-barrel crap like Konig is as low as you can go. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the factory Sport wheels. They look great, are aggressively-sized, forged and for chrissakes made by Rays. Swapping them out just for the sake of "having rims" is not only ghetto but the ultimate face-palm.

I'm not saying this car only deserves premier brands like HRE, Fikse, or Dymag...spending $8-10K for wheels/tires when it's all said and done is awesome if you can swing it, but it is a $35K Nissan after all. However, going with wheels catered to the broke, teenaged, entry-level "tuner" crowd is laughable.

How about a set of Volk, SSR, Advan, BBS, Gram Light, Work, or similar? If you can't afford comparable wheels to those names, why bother?
