I-Spoke Flow Formed Chrome for the 5x100 Community — Konig Countergram CT8851040C in 18x8.5 5x100 ET40
The Konig Countergram CT8851040C brings the striking hyper chrome and machined lip Countergram design to the 5x100 bolt pattern family in 18x8.5 with an ET40 offset. Flow formed construction on the CT8851040C means the barrel is processed under heat and pressure after casting, compressing the aluminum grain structure for improved tensile strength and reduced mass compared to a conventional cast wheel. The I-spoke design with hyper chrome face and machined lip delivers bold visual contrast that works on both street and show builds. Each CT8851040C ships individually with a matching center cap included.
The 73.1mm center bore on the CT8851040C covers the widest range of 5x100 platforms. The ET40 offset is a practical fitment for platforms like the Subaru BRZ, Toyota GR86, Volkswagen Golf GTI Mk5 and Mk6, and Scion FR-S. TPMS sensors are compatible, and hub-centric rings are available for vehicles with a factory bore tighter than 73.1mm.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the CT8851435C and CT8851040C?
Both are Konig Countergram 18x8.5 wheels in hyper chrome with machined lip, but the CT8851435C is 5x114.3 with ET35 and the CT8851040C is 5x100 with ET40. Always match the bolt pattern to your vehicle before ordering.
Does the Konig Countergram CT8851040C fit the Subaru BRZ?
Yes. The 2013 to 2020 Subaru BRZ uses a 5x100 bolt pattern and is a confirmed fitment vehicle for the CT8851040C. Verify hub bore and clearance for your specific trim.
Does the Konig Countergram CT8851040C fit the Scion FR-S?
Yes. The 2013 to 2016 Scion FR-S uses 5x100 and is fully compatible with the CT8851040C.
What lug nuts are needed for the Konig Countergram CT8851040C?
60-degree conical seat (acorn) lug nuts in the thread pitch for your vehicle. Subaru and Toyota 5x100 platforms typically use M12x1.25. Volkswagen uses M14x1.5. Factory lug nuts are not compatible.
What tire sizes fit the Konig Countergram CT8851040C (18x8.5)?
Common fitments for an 18x8.5 wheel include 235/40R18 and 245/40R18. Confirm with your tire supplier for your specific build.

Konig backs the CT8851040C with a lifetime structural warranty and a 1-year finish warranty to the original purchaser, covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal use.
Does the Konig Countergram CT8851040C need hub-centric rings?
The CT8851040C has a 73.1mm center bore. Most 5x100 vehicles have a hub bore under 73.1mm, so hub-centric rings are strongly recommended for the CT8851040C.
Is the Konig Countergram CT8851040C TPMS compatible?
Yes. The CT8851040C is compatible with OEM-style TPMS sensors. Retain your factory sensors during tire mounting.
Installation Notes
Hub-centric rings are strongly recommended due to the 73.1mm bore on most 5x100 vehicles. Torque lug nuts in a star pattern to the vehicle manufacturer's specification using a calibrated torque wrench. Re-torque after the first 25 to 50 miles. Do not use an impact wrench for final torque on the CT8851040C. Handle the hyper chrome finish carefully during installation to avoid contact damage.
Konig
Konig wheels combine flow-forming technology with bold styling to produce lighter, stronger rims without the cost of fully forged construction. Their catalog spans concave multi-spoke designs to aggressive deep-lip profiles, giving you fitment options across a broad range of vehicles and offsets.Popular UpgradesThe Konig Hypergram is a standout in the flow-formed lineup, offering a monoblock multi-spoke design in weights that rival much more expensive forged wheels. The Konig Ampliform uses a similar process with a more concave, motorsport-influenced look. Both are available in multiple finishes including matte black, hyper silver, and gloss white.What is flow-forming and why does it matter?Flow-forming (also called flow-forging or rim-rolling) starts with a cast aluminum barrel, then uses high-pressure rollers to stretch and compress the barrel wall. This aligns the grain structure of the aluminum, increasing tensile strength and allowing the barrel to be thinner and lighter than a...
