Question Konig wheels

Konig as I understand things are a US wheel maker; they're new to me but I've found a local vendor with some wheels that I kinda like. Anyone in Canada/US have a comment on them?

I have three car-guy freinds that have their wheels. They are on 2 Honda's and a Toyota. However, with regaurd to their overall quality I have heard nothing but good things. They are a very common "tuner import show wheel" you see here state side. Quality suff if I recall a bit on the heavy side because they lean towards more flash than fast. However, they are getting more lightweight wheels in there line-up.

I haven't seen anything they make for our cars...

They're sold as 'League' in the U.K.

No there not, League and Konig are sold as separate brands.

If you get a close look at the 'Leagues' you'll see 'Konig's' logo...

Compare models of the two brands, and you'll immediately see the product lineup is nearly identical

Konig only recently started selling under Konig name on your pond side

Many brands will sell same models under different names for marketing purposes (bora/vento/jetta/rabbitt/golf etc....)
