Default Konig Beyonds or ASA AR1's?

Hi everyone. Not surprisingly, I can't make up my mind on new 18" wheels for my VB '06 GT. I like the Konig Beyonds, they look more old school. The ASA wheels remind me of BBS wheels I have always coveted but could never afford. What do you all think?

Thanks,

I was very, very close from getting the Konig Beyond...the deciding factor was that my spouse preferred the chrome dd bullitt...sooooo, that's what I ordered....still waiting on them...

Ive got the 18' Konig Beyonds on my Redfire GT and I love 'em. I even had my racing stripe painted to match the graphite grey part of the wheel. Theyre both nice rims but my vote goes to the Konigs

I like the BBS look of the AR1's. I'm not a big fan of the Beyond's, but it's obviously a preference thing. Every time I see them I think they look like somebody put their Bullets on inside out lol.

I like the AR1s more, but If youre going for that style, go with actual BBS wheels.

"cheap" BBS wheels are over $400 a piece. On average they are 6-8 hundred each. AR1's are $200 - it's a no brainer

Here's a picture of my VB Mustang with Beyonds on it, I replaced the Konig centercaps with the factory Ford ones and it looks GREAT IMO.
