Konig Flow Forming Technology

The Konig Hypergram utilizes advanced Flow Forming Technology, a manufacturing process designed to improve wheel strength characteristics while reducing unnecessary weight.

Flow forming begins with a cast aluminum wheel blank that is placed on specialized machinery. The wheel is rotated while pressure is applied to the barrel using forming rollers.

This process stretches and compresses the aluminum material, refining its mechanical properties and allowing the barrel to achieve its final dimensions with efficient material distribution.

Flow forming provides several performance advantages:

• Reduced wheel weight compared with many traditional cast wheel designs.

• Improved barrel strength characteristics.

• Increased tensile strength.

• Enhanced material elongation properties.

• Improved resistance to deformation.

• Efficient material distribution.

• Reduced unsprung mass when replacing heavier wheels.

• Reduced rotational mass.

• Lightweight construction suitable for performance-oriented applications.

Although flow forming shares certain characteristics with forging, the Hypergram is a Flow Formed wheel, not a fully forged wheel.

This manufacturing process allows Konig to offer lightweight performance-oriented wheels while maintaining a practical price point.

Lightweight 12-Spoke Design

The Hypergram features a distinctive 12-spoke design inspired by motorsport wheel construction.

Its angular spoke geometry creates an aggressive appearance while maintaining an open layout that provides visibility of the vehicle's brake components.

The spoke arrangement emphasizes the wheel's performance-oriented design and complements vehicles equipped with upgraded suspension, brakes, and tires.

The Hypergram's styling is particularly appealing for enthusiasts seeking a functional wheel design without sacrificing appearance.

Premium Matte Grey Finish

The HG8851435G features Konig's distinctive Matte Grey finish.

Unlike traditional gloss-painted wheels, the matte finish provides a subdued, non-reflective appearance that emphasizes the Hypergram's angular spoke geometry.

The gray color offers a modern alternative to conventional black, silver, or bronze wheels while complementing a wide variety of vehicle exterior colors.

The Matte Grey finish provides several styling advantages:

• Clean, understated appearance.

• Reduced visual reflections compared with gloss finishes.

• Enhanced definition of the 12-spoke design.

• Distinctive motorsport-inspired styling.

• Versatile color compatibility.

• Modern aftermarket appearance.

This finish is particularly popular among enthusiasts seeking a performance-oriented wheel with subtle, refined styling.

20.08 lb Flow Formed Construction

At approximately 20.08 lbs, the 18x8.5 Hypergram offers a practical balance of lightweight construction and durability.

Reducing wheel weight can provide performance benefits when replacing heavier factory wheels, including:

• Reduced unsprung mass.

• Reduced rotational mass.

• Potential improvements in suspension responsiveness.

Actual performance differences depend on the weight and specifications of the original wheel and tire package.

18x8.5 +35 Wheel Fitment

The 18x8.5-inch configuration provides a versatile platform for appropriately sized street and performance tires.

The +35mm offset determines the wheel's mounting position relative to its centerline and affects both inner suspension clearance and outer fender clearance.

Compared with an otherwise identical +45mm offset wheel, the +35mm configuration positions the wheel approximately 10mm farther outward.

This can provide additional inner suspension clearance but increases the importance of checking outer fender and tire clearance.

Potential installation considerations include:

• Factory or aftermarket suspension clearance.

• Brake caliper and rotor clearance.

• Tire width and sidewall selection.

• Fender clearance.

• Steering clearance.

• Alignment and camber settings.

• Hub-centric ring requirements.

• Vehicle-specific tire diameter requirements.

Proper fitment should always be confirmed before installation.

73.1mm Center Bore

The Hypergram HG8851435G features a 73.1mm center bore.

Vehicles with smaller hub diameters may require appropriately sized hub-centric rings to help center the wheel during installation.

Hub-centric rings do not correct an incompatible bolt pattern, incorrect lug hardware, or insufficient brake clearance.

Performance Tire Compatibility

The 8.5-inch wheel width accommodates a range of performance-oriented tire sizes.

Common tire widths considered for 8.5-inch wheels include:

• 225mm performance tires.

• 235mm performance tires.

• 245mm performance tires.

• 255mm performance tires, where approved by the tire manufacturer.

The correct tire size depends on the tire manufacturer's approved rim-width range, vehicle suspension configuration, overall tire diameter requirements, and available clearance.

60-Degree Conical Lug Hardware Compatibility

The Konig Hypergram requires compatible 60-degree conical-seat lug hardware.

Properly matched lug nuts or bolts are essential for safe wheel installation.

Before mounting, verify the vehicle's thread size, lug seat profile, and necessary thread engagement.

Factory lug hardware may not be compatible with aftermarket wheels.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System Compatibility

The Hypergram supports compatible tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) sensors.

Vehicles originally equipped with TPMS may require transferring compatible sensors from the factory wheels or installing replacement sensors.

Sensor compatibility and programming requirements vary by vehicle.

Wheel Load Rating

The HG8851435G has a published 1,521 lb load rating per wheel.

This rating represents the maximum specified load capacity for the individual wheel.

Before installation, verify that the wheel's load rating meets the vehicle's applicable axle load requirements.

Brake Clearance Considerations

The Hypergram features an open 12-spoke design developed with performance-oriented applications in mind.

Its spoke arrangement may accommodate various factory and aftermarket brake systems, including certain larger performance brake configurations.

However, compatibility depends on the specific brake system, rotor dimensions, wheel barrel profile, and spoke clearance.

Always verify brake clearance using an appropriate manufacturer-approved brake template before purchasing.

Matte Grey Finish Care

The Matte Grey finish should be maintained using cleaning products suitable for matte-painted aluminum wheels.

Avoid harsh acidic cleaners, abrasive polishing compounds, and aggressive brushes that may damage or alter the finish.

Regular cleaning helps remove brake dust, road grime, and other contaminants while preserving the wheel's appearance.

Matte finishes should not be polished with conventional gloss-enhancing compounds, as these products may create uneven or shiny areas.
