Wheels .. Another change of course

I've had a fire lit under me to change wheels and tires on my '15 Trail Edition in Super White. I've been researching wheels since not long after i bought it. I always liked the PRO design, in both Toyota and FN iterations. It's just a good looking wheel.
But, I also liked the Konig Six Shooter from FN. I like the fitment, the 8" width, and the Flow Formed construction .. superior in my opinion. But, they just seemed a little dark against Super White, and I guess I'm a bit "old school" in that I like some metallic shine.
I was set to order the FN fX Pro wheels from FN, when by chance, I was looking at the 5th Generation T4R Picture Gallery thread. I came across a set of Konig Six Shooters that just blew me away, and I knew I had found the wheels for my rig.. It's post #6238 here...

They're Konig Six Shooters in 17 x 8, 0 offset, 4.5 inch backspace in Flow Formed construction. Powder coated gunmetal, then the face machined to reveal the aluminum on the face, then clear coated. It makes for an awesome finish!

I spoke to Dustin this morning about ordering a set. Dustin is everything that people say about him and more! Very informative, very professional and more than helpful.

Anyway, I've ordered a set of 5 wheels, and Dustin is ordering, so if anyone else wants a set, give him a call..

I haven't seen a wheel this nice in a looooong time..

BTW, if you google "machined FN six shooter" there are other images also. One on a Taco that looks real nice.

I'll report back when they're fitted with tires and on the truck..

P.S.
For those interested, here's a video from the Konig factory showing the Flow Form process..

I recently ordered the FN Verge wheels from Dustin. He was great to deal with (once I got ahold of him!) and took his time with me on the phone to go over everything.
