Basically, I get a credit for two wheels and have to buy two more because the Toxxins are discontinued. This is the first and last time I buy Konig wheels. I highly advise everyone to do the same.

But I guess that's why you get for buying cheap knockoff wheels. :doh:

DON'T BUY KONIG WHEELS!

I must have had the only good set of Konig Toxxins last year then. I had no problems with my clear coat. I heard they changed something in the painting process though.

I would just take/send the wheels to a wheel fix it place. One place repainted my TSW Venoms and they looked brand new.

WheelMax still has the Toxxin style listed as available, you could check there to see if they would sell you two, and bill Konig for it.

Here are a few options:

1. Sell your remaining wheels on EBAY.
2. Sell the Konig credit.
then buy some new wheels.
