Hyper Chrome Meets Machined Lip — Konig Countergram CT8851435C in 18x8.5 5x114.3 ET35
The Konig Countergram CT8851435C is a flow formed aluminum wheel in 18x8.5 with a 5x114.3 bolt pattern and ET35 offset, finished in hyper chrome with a machined lip. Flow forming the barrel after casting strengthens the aluminum grain structure and reduces weight compared to a conventional cast design. The hyper chrome face with a contrasting machined lip on the CT8851435C creates a high-contrast, multi-surface finish that draws the eye from every angle. The I-spoke design of the Countergram series gives the wheel a modern motorsport aesthetic. Each CT8851435C ships individually with a matching center cap included.
The 73.1mm center bore on the CT8851435C covers the widest range of 5x114.3 vehicles. The ET35 offset is a practical street fitment that works under factory fenders on the majority of 5x114.3 platforms without modification. TPMS sensors are fully compatible, and hub-centric rings are available for vehicles with a tighter factory bore.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is hyper chrome finish on the Konig Countergram CT8851435C?
Hyper chrome is a highly polished, bright silver finish that creates a mirror-like appearance on the spokes. Combined with the contrasting machined lip on the CT8851435C, the result is a two-tone wheel with significant visual depth and light-catching presence.
Is the Konig Countergram CT8851435C cast or flow formed?
The CT8851435C is a flow formed wheel. The barrel is processed under heat and pressure after the initial cast, improving tensile strength and reducing weight compared to a standard cast design.
What tire sizes work with the Konig Countergram CT8851435C (18x8.5)?
An 18x8.5 wheel accepts tires from approximately 235 to 265 wide. Common choices for sport sedan fitments include 245/40R18 and 255/40R18.
What lug nuts are required for the Konig Countergram CT8851435C?
60-degree conical seat (acorn) lug nuts in the thread pitch for your vehicle. Most 5x114.3 platforms use M12x1.25 or M12x1.5. Factory lug nuts are not compatible.
Does the Konig Countergram CT8851435C need hub-centric rings?
The CT8851435C has a 73.1mm center bore. Hub-centric rings are recommended if your vehicle's hub bore is smaller than 73.1mm to prevent vibration at speed.
What is the warranty on the Konig Countergram CT8851435C?
Konig provides a lifetime structural warranty and a 1-year finish warranty to the original purchaser on the CT8851435C, covering defects in materials and workmanship under normal use.
How do I keep the hyper chrome finish clean on the CT8851435C?
Clean with a pH-neutral wheel cleaner and a soft microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or steel wool. Rinse thoroughly after exposure to road salts or brake dust. The CT8851435C's finish warranty covers defects in the factory coating, not damage from improper care.
Is the Konig Countergram CT8851435C TPMS compatible?
Yes. The CT8851435C supports OEM-style snap-in and band-style TPMS sensors. Have your installer retain your factory sensors during mounting.
Installation Notes
Clean hub and wheel mating surfaces before installation. Torque lug nuts to the vehicle manufacturer's specification in a star pattern 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 CT8851435C. Handle the hyper chrome finish carefully during mounting to avoid scratches.
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...
