SEMA 2013

Posted on by Konig Wheels

Konig (American) had a great turnout at the 2013 SEMA Show. As always, unveiled some new products (which you can check out on our Facebook page…HINT HINT!), some really cool vehicle builds, and of course two hot models! We were extremely honored to have a new FR-S in our booth with one of only a few Rocket Bunny Version 2 kits on it. That FR-S was provided by Ian Yu of Intuned Onlineand rolled-in sporting the Konig SSM 18×10 all the way around! We also showed a FRESH and mint built Acura NSX on the show floor, which showed-off the all-new Konig Oversteer in Gloss Black – coming 2014 (again, check our FB page for that)! The NSX paired well with the Scion FR-S. Other vehicles included a new Jeep Wrangler, which was built by Projekt Cars and Southwestern University showing off our Mamba Offroad Wheel line. The new JK was all decked-out for off-road use with Mamba M13 Wheels. Race Ramps provided their 14 inch Race Rock, which supported one side of the Jeep, and gave it a nice off-road touch for the show floor. Big shout out to all the vendors and partners that made all of these builds possible. Bravado Wheels Featured a 2012 Cadillac CTS with Tributes in Matte Black. A brand-new Mercedes E-350 showed-off the all-new Advanti Racing Hybris (Gloss Black). The Hybris will be coming in 2014 make sure to check Advanti Racing USA’s FB page!

If you’ve gotten your copy of Performance Auto & Sound Volume 13 Issue 10 then you may have come across the Injen ad featuring our favorite Hyundai Veloster. The Veloster has been getting all kinds of love from being a featured SEMA vehicle to making an appearance in Forza Motorsport 4. Front and center is the Veloster rolling on KÔNIG Deceptions.

Forza Motorsport 4 / Hyundai Veloster

Posted on by Konig Wheels

For everyone out there who plays Forza Motorsport 4 you know it’s an awesome game with stunning graphics and superior gameplay. We here would like to agree! What’s even cooler about the game is the new partnership with Hyundai that offers you a free release DLC (Downloadable Content) of the 2013 Hyundai Veloster.

The Veloster in Forza Motorsport 4 is a perfect rendering of the 2013 Hyundai Veloster built by PM Lifestyle, which you may have seen at the 2011 SEMA Show in Las Vegas, Nevada. If you have seen the car you then certainly noticed the stealthy KÖNIG Deception wheels, blueberry paint and carbon fiber components. If you haven’t seen this Veloster, be sure to check it out at a local show nearest you as the car will be on tour with Universal Technical Institute (UTI) in 2012. If not, check out the gallery below.

The Hyundai Veloster DLC can be downloaded from the Xbox 360 Storefront: CobraTuner

San Francisco Auto Show 2011

Posted on by Konig Wheels

Our great friends over at GoGoGear attended the 54th Annual San Francisco Auto International Auto Show this year and it proved a great success.

They showcased a bevy of USTCC race cars including their Hyundai Genesis Coupe, which sports a set of KÖNIG Kilograms which are well known for their performance inspired appeal, light weight and durable construction. Many people were very interested in the display, and it looks like GoGoGear earned quite a number of new fans this year. People were also excited to hear the news that the FIA World Touring Car Championship (WTCC) is approaching and they will be an opening act.

Kia is now the official safety car of USTCC. The Kia Soul was used prior to this, however, with the arrival of WTCC there was a need for a flashier car. Beginning in 2012, the USTCC will utilize the Kia Optima Hybrid to pace the track. Another light weight offering from KÖNIG wheels, the Backbone were chosen for the build and custom painted with a green accent line to compliment the custom paint. The car was debuted at the 2011 SEMA Show in Las Vegas, Nevada in November. The car was placed on the center stage at the San Francisco Auto Show and positioned direct to the main entrance and headlined the Kia booth.

The San Francisco International Auto Show is sponsored by AutoTrader and also the San Francisco Chronicle (The largest Bay Area daily newspaper) KGO TV Channel 7 also had coverage of the show.
