My new track wheel set
Just picked up my new track wheels...and slapped them on the car.. Kinesis K-5s 17x10 and 17x11 with 275s up front and 315s in the back.
Now that's what I call some serious meats.... They were made for a GTS and my track car has GTS flares, however, they worked them into the stock rear 82 bumper cover, so some of the flare was lost. I'll need to cringe the fender lip just a bit to get the rears to fit nicely. I could also go with smaller spacers (running 38mm right now) but will need to check the inside clearance....

Nope..no mileage on them yet...just picked them up today. Will need to roll the fenders before I go too far. My plans are to use them in the SCCA ITE class next season...
I got them from a local 928er (Portland OR) who is selling his really nice 5sp 93 GTS (midnight blue with grey interior) too. I'll get him to send me some pics and post them up.. here's the details on his car..
$32,000.00
'93 5-spd
approx. 98k miles
midnight blue metallic w/ light grey interior
recent very nice paint (about 2 yrs. ago at Roth & Miller in Portland)
-at this time i had them do a side molding and rear wiper delete
(looks very clean)
12 way heated seats
Alpine stereo w/ ipod adaptor and custom subwoofer in spare tire
Koni/Eibach external adjustables
Louie's drop links
Carbon fiber x brace
timing belt changed about 4.5 yrs ago at $75K miles (when I bought
the car) maintained at Stuttgart Autotech in Lake Oswego since I purchased
comes with original factory wheels
known issues:
driver side rear wheel liner needs replacement
oil leak around oil pan gasket
passenger side seat heater not working

Those look like they would be a whole lot of fun to drive on.
Man, I'm envious.

Love the the 5's. I have Fikse FM10's...YUCK! PITA to clean. I would suggest a narrower spacer to pull them in a bit since you are still running a stagger in tire width. Tucking them in a bit should help make the car even more balanced front to rear!
LOOKING GOOD FOR SURE!
