Ever went to our website, check out the wheel you’re interested in, went to the wheel specs section and the size you are interested in has an “A” or “B” next to it?! (You: Yeah! What is that Konig?!)

And that’s why we made this video, so you can further understand what it means when purchasing a set of new wheels.
