Default Konig Heliums or Greenlights in 16's?????

I've seen great prices on these wheels in 15's, but I've never seen 16's...do they exist?

Spoke to Konig at IAS and they said they have NO PLANS on making a 16" version of either the Greenlights or Heliums. They will have a 17" version weighing just over 17lbs (about 17.5lbs) soon, but no 16" version. With almost every wheel manufacturer there, I asked about 16" versions and all said "only 15" or 17"...there's not enuf demand for 16"...argh!!!!! That's annoying as I really like 16" wheels. I guess the majority of ppl out there either go for show only or go only and don't care too much about the in-between.

That really sucks because I love the style of the Heliums and the Greenlights....and NO DEMAND for 16's???! I got the impression that a majority of the people on this site preferred 16" wheels over 17's....weird.

yeah, I was surprised also when Konig and all the other manufacturers were telling me "there's not enuf demand for 16's"...argh!!! Like I said, it seems like ppl that want show go for 17 and ppl that want lightweight go for 15. Still I would think there's enuf demand for a 16" version!...damnit!

Oh, and for the Tenzo's...there's 2 models...a Cinco (almost identical to RNR's) and a Cinco-R (17-19") that has rivets and a polished lip. The Cinco's come in 15x6.5, 17", and 18"...but again, NO 16"!!!...argh!!!!! Oh well...I found another one I like....the Alt Litespeed's....16" weighs 15.5lbs and it looks very similar to volk gram lights, which I like the styling of.

Alt 210 Litespeed:



Volk Gram Lights:



Not identical (the center's different), but it looks similar. I saw the Alt Litespeeds at IAS and they looked very nice. At least there's another option to Rotas (good wheels...but oh so common) that are low-priced.

Almost 7 months later. Are the Heliums available in 16" now?
I am very interested in bronze for my white Eg

I hate that they dont make 16's. I wanted Konig Imagines. In 16" with opal finish and machined lip they would look wicked on my black car.
