These Rims Are sold for a lot more ...but, he needs to sell them...Let me know 305 608-4494
The Kinesis are 18's 9 and 11. They are the k58 with the gun metal finish. Tuning engine now, brakes will come later in the year. I remember Tarox had a kit, but haven't looked too far into it yet. Good luck with the wheels.

Taso, I'd be interested in the possiblity of the Speedline. I've looked at HRE, Forgeline as well. No prices yet. Haven't tried Hamman either. Know anything about Evosport, Compomotive, iForged. Contacted SL Comp. I think they carry Speedline.
What style and finish Kinesis did you order? Are you modifying anything to accept the 19" 9 & 11's? I assume you are planning on upgrading brakes. Any specifics such as rotors, calipers front & rear, braided hoses? I looked at AP as the best option but they don't sell in the US. Brembo's have to be custom made from what I can tell so far. |

I looked at HRE..too expensive, Forgeline ..not available, Speedlines are nice but I like the "3 piece" look of the Kinesis. I might know someone who had 18 8 and 10 new Speedline for sale. I think he wnts 3100. Let me know if interested.
Hamman makes wheels too,, expensive though. Don't know anybody else.

Taso, I'd also be interested in the goodies. I'm actively looking at a new set for my TR. Its definitely a small market for single lugs! What other mfr's did you look at?

Nice, I heard that Kinesis are lighter than HREs and speedlines. Look forward to seeing some pics. |

I ordered a set from Kinesis, they should be ready in about 2 to 3 weeks. 18 inch 9 and 11.
They are pricey, but I already have aftermarket wheels, and one is not quite balancing. Also, plan on upgrading brakes, they won't fit in 16 wheels I have on now. Had a hard time finding wheels for car. Will post pics when i receive them.
