QUOTE Wrong offset.... by that do you mean it would also have too much back space (considering the width)? |

In order for the tires not to rub on the body (trunk walls, front and rear), you'd want approx. 1" spacers......
without a doubt, you'd need flares.......I like them, too bad my bolt pattern is all wrong for these wheels (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) (the backspacing is too deep by about an inch unless you modifiy your trailing arms and inner fender well) |

hopefully someone bids on them...I jumped the gun and placed a bid, and then I remembered my bolt pattern is 4x100 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

FYI, I called Kinesis and asked them about this rims......
Zero, nada, zilch support or parts for these....they also couldn't (or wouldn't) tell me of any other manufactures that the rim halves or centers would interchange with......bend one and you are SOL if it cannot be fixed by a wheel repair/refinishing shop..they did offer to sell me a set of brand new 17" Kinesis rims...I was nice and didn't tell them that I am happy with my Fikse 3-piece rims:) |
