König Ziege dose mean king goat but I think it makes more sense as a wheel.
they are 16 x 7 with a 35mm backspace, if my online research matches with what I have. Since Konig only offered these wheels is a few versions.
onto the pictures.
Plan are to clean and maybe refinish the wheels, then swap the tires off my other set of wheels onto these. After that and once the snow stops falling I'll put my Ebiach/KYB combo back in the towers and these new (to me) wheels onto the hubs.
I miss my Cavalier, even if it made 100 hp on a cold day and had more suspension then it deserved.
not bad...with the car lowered again they'll look better and all cleaned up. aftermarket wheels/parts just dont look right with fender gap. but thankfully here in southern TX we dont have to worry about winter seasons affecting our car mods all that much
what happened to the wheels in your sig? i like those better even though the new ones arent bad at all
04 Cav. 2dr. 5spd. My DD. 'Nuff said.
The ones in my sig are nearly trashed, they look great from far off. But, I am not willing to spend time refinishing them. they also are Eagle Alloys not exactly as good of a brand as the Konigs.

time for an update, encase anyone cares
So I began the painting process, Started simple. Washing the wheels with a scotch bright. That always seems to give me decent results. just a comparison picture to show how much better they look being one color.
After that I bead blasted the centers of the wheels and got the first coats of primer. After a bit of filler these wheels should. look decent.
the boring sanding and leveling to get things flat
and the 'final' coat of primer. on all four

Now I'm just a few touch ups and a warm weekend away from mounting them.
Yes, white. GM bright white to be exact. The tape is one them just to protect the high edge of the spokes since that is where the majority of the nasty rash was on these wheels.

I think it'll work well on the blue car. I'm in the middle of a big storm and finals at my University are soon so I'm not gonna get much done until the next month. Maybe I'll get it done some weekend.

Re-lowered, wheels mounted, I hope it doesn't snow tomorrow
