90TGP Posted March 4, 2003 Report Share Posted March 4, 2003 I'm thinking of getting Konig Tantrums in 17x8" for my TGP. I was wondering what your thoughts on these wheels are. Like looks, price, weight ect ect ect. Here's a picture I found on cardomain.com with a variation of the Tantrums on a Grand Prix [probably Giovanna's by the look of all the lug nut holes and it only has 6 spokes instead of 7.] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBuick Posted March 4, 2003 Report Share Posted March 4, 2003 take a look at motegi MR7s, same thing only cheaper. they look awesome in 17s with a lowered car, awesome!!! -Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90TGP Posted March 5, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2003 The only thing about Motegi's is that they are much heavier then the Konig's are. I believe the 16s are around 22lbs! I did a little looking on cardomain, and found that someone has MR7's on their GP. http://www.cardomain.com/id/joebcott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBuick Posted March 5, 2003 Report Share Posted March 5, 2003 either way I love the tantrums Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedZMonte Posted March 5, 2003 Report Share Posted March 5, 2003 they look sweet on my car. I don't like the motegi's. they are cheap. a local GPer had them and ditched them because the powdercoating was not very good (chiped easy) here is a L67 Swaped 1996 GTP w/ the Tantrums as well: RedZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ismellrealbad Posted March 5, 2003 Report Share Posted March 5, 2003 clear tailights on a GP.....awwwk. and from the looks of that inspection sticker theyre from NJ. I should go there and introduce those tailights to my hammer! an L67 swap should also be accompanied by the vented hood :shock: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnatGoSplat Posted March 5, 2003 Report Share Posted March 5, 2003 I don't care for them. Too many spokes and not enough depth for my taste, but they're popular so most people must like them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedZMonte Posted March 5, 2003 Report Share Posted March 5, 2003 I don't care for them. Too many spokes and not enough depth for my taste, but they're popular so most people must like them. The look sweet if you have brake work done.. Which i will have here very soon. Planed brake work: * Rear disk Conversion * EBC Dimples/Slotted rotors * Goodwridge SS Braided brake lines * Powder coated Calipers and brackets RedZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90TGP Posted March 6, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2003 I'd love to get a set of Eagle 77's in chrome. But they are a lot more then the Tantrums and weigh about 6lbs more. But sure looks sweet as hell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
