Thank you for reading the “news” section of our website. Today we’d like to share some updates regarding inventory and new products as well as shipping lead times for the week of October 16, 2023.
First, we want to let everyone know that the FN / Konig Countersteer Type X flow formed wheels are back in stock in 16×8″ +0mm offset 6×139.7. We have the following versions available to order now:
These are really sweet, light weight (19.5lbs per wheel approximately), super strong (flow formed construction with 2,100lbs+ load rating) wheels.
We’re currently running the 16×8″ +0mm offset Countersteer Type X Flow Formed in matte black with LT285/75R16 Toyo Open Country AT III tires on our 2014 FJ Cruiser. The light weight 16×8″ Countersteer Type X really helps to neutralize the increase in weight added by the heavy duty Toyo tires.
Second, we’re happy to announce that we expect to have many of our most popular wheels back in stock the week of Monday October 26, 2023. This includes:
Up next for this update is some news about another fitment coming soon for the Countersteer Type X. This all-new version will feature a 17″ diameter, 9″ rim width and aggressive -25mm offset (4″ backspacing) along with a robust 2,500lbs load rating (tested to SAE J2530 standard). The wheel weight is projected to be only 24lbs per wheel thanks to meticulous design, engineering and testing along with an advanced flow form manufacturing technique using only the highest purity 6061 T6 aluminum alloy available.
We teased this wheel on Instagram a few weeks ago and received excellent feedback.
Surprisingly (to us), quite a few 2007-2021 Tundra owners sent us messages indicating that they’re looking for aggressive rim width and offset combinations.
Initially we intended to offer this wheel in the 6×139.7mm bolt pattern only, but after considering all of our customers’ input we went back to the drawing board and got to work on a 5×150 option. This wheel will look awesome on 2007-2021 Tundras with fiberglass fenders, custom bedsides, and/or fender flares.
We’ll post more updates about the new 17×9″ Countersteer Type X flow formed as we progress through the manufacturing process. We expect the wheels to be ready to ship in early 2024.
Lastly for this update, please note that all orders placed after 4:00PM Pacific on Friday October 13, 2023 will ship on or after Monday October, 23 2023. We are available to take your calls, respond to emails, and accept orders, but we will not be shipping orders during the week of October 16, 2023. Thank you for your patience and patronage. We greatly value and appreciate all of our customers.
