Too bad they don't post specs for the wheels.

I like them! If you do research see if they have them in a 19x8 and 19x9.5 also.

Are those the same wheels as used on the W427? Wider for the rear wheels?

The wheels are similar but different.
In 22" they are available with a 9.5" rear and we have fitted a 295/25/22

Are you selling Konig wheels also?

Yes Konig wheels also however i believe you would be better off buying these in the US as they are well available there so no need to pay freight.
If you face the issue where the Konig wheel you desire is only available in 5 x 114.3 and that is your 'must have' wheel you can have the wheel machined and inserted to 5 x 120.
I am not sure who does this there but i imagine this would be a relatively common practice?
A wheel outlet with the appropriate machinery, a outlet that manufactures spacers or bolt on adaptors or even a wheel repair store should be able to complete the job.
This is generally not something done on a wheel with chrome bores as the machining may score the bores.
I will email our machine room guys and see if we can get some pictures of the process to post. This is relatively in-expensive process costing around $40 USD per wheel.

Well, the bad news, Konig does not offer the Lace in our bolt pattern as of yet.

Not exactly what i meant but this is the process of changing a wheel that did have 5 x 120 PCD to 5 x 114.3 PCD
Does not show the detail like a wanted to do as this is a wheel with a centre cap covering the bores but i think you get the idea.
I just walked into the machine room and this is what they were doing now...

I'll be working with you in the future to get wheels for my G8. This is what I'll be doing to my G8.
