Flow-Formed 12-Spoke Motorsport Wheel Built Light Enough for Track Day and Sharp Enough for the Street
The Konig KNGHG97510408 Hypergram 17x9 in Race Bronze with a 5x100 bolt pattern and ET40 offset is a Flow Formed aluminum wheel engineered for Euro and JDM sport compact platforms that demand a lightweight motorsport wheel without sacrificing daily-driver aesthetics. The KNGHG97510408 uses Konig's Flow Forming Technology to spin-form and stretch the aluminum barrel under pressure, increasing tensile strength, reducing wall thickness, and dropping weight compared to conventional cast wheels of the same size. The Hypergram's 12-spoke design clears many big-brake upgrades and carries a 1,542 lb load rating at 17.5 lbs per wheel. With 40 years of wheel manufacturing history and FEA-validated structural optimization behind every design, the KNGHG97510408 is backed by Konig's limited lifetime structural defect warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions
What vehicles does the KNGHG97510408 fit on the 5x100 bolt pattern?The KNGHG97510408 with a 5x100 bolt pattern fits a wide range of Euro and JDM sport compacts including many Subaru Impreza, WRX, BRZ, Volkswagen Golf, GTI, Jetta, Audi TT, Toyota GR86, and Scion FR-S applications. Always verify hub bore, offset, and brake clearance for your specific year and model before ordering.
Is the 73.1mm center bore hub-centric on the KNGHG97510408?Yes. The KNGHG97510408 has a 73.1mm center bore. This is hub-centric for most 5x100 Volkswagen, Audi, Subaru, and Toyota applications that use a 73.1mm hub. If your vehicle has a different hub bore diameter, a hub-centric ring is required for proper centering.
What is Flow Forming Technology and why does it matter on the KNGHG97510408?Flow Forming spins the aluminum wheel barrel against a die under high pressure, compressing and stretching the aluminum's grain structure. This process yields tensile strength close to forged wheels at a fraction of the cost, while reducing wall thickness and weight. The KNGHG97510408 weighs 17.5 lbs , significantly lighter than cast wheels in the same size , improving unsprung mass for better acceleration, braking, and handling response.
Will the KNGHG97510408 clear big brake kits?The KNGHG97510408 12-spoke design provides clearance for many popular big brake kit upgrades. Clearance depends on the specific caliper and rotor combination. Confirm caliper clearance for your specific brake kit before ordering.
What lug nut seat type does the KNGHG97510408 require?The KNGHG97510408 uses a conical (tapered) seat lug nut. Use only the correct seat type to avoid wheel damage and ensure proper torque retention. Most 5x100 sport compact factory lug nuts are conical seat and will be compatible.
Does the KNGHG97510408 come with a center cap?Yes. Konig includes a center cap with the KNGHG97510408. The center cap style and quantity per package follow Konig's standard packaging specifications.
What is the load rating of the KNGHG97510408?The KNGHG97510408 has a load rating of 1,542 lbs per wheel. This is suitable for most sport compact passenger car applications. If your vehicle has an unusually high curb weight, verify the load rating is sufficient for your corner weight before ordering.
What warranty does the KNGHG97510408 carry?The KNGHG97510408 is backed by Konig's limited lifetime warranty against structural defects. The warranty covers manufacturing defects. It does not cover damage from misuse, accidents, improper installation, or use of incorrect hardware. Register your wheels at Konig's website after purchase.
Installation Notes
- Verify bolt pattern (5x100), hub bore (73.1mm), offset (ET40), and brake clearance for your specific vehicle before installation
- Install hub-centric rings if your vehicle hub bore does not match 73.1mm
- Hand-thread all lug nuts before lowering the vehicle to the ground
- Torque lug nuts to the vehicle manufacturer's specification in a star pattern in two stages
- Re-torque after the first 50 miles of driving to confirm proper seating
- Inspect wheel and lug nut torque every 5,000 miles or at each tire rotation
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...
