If I had a 928 they would be GONE. Thinking about a certain 928 on the board though.

This is a great deal on the Kinesis. I have these on my GTS bought from Mark A years ago. I have 315's on the back and 275's up front. You won't be disappointed. Joe

Wow, thanks for the positive support everyone!
A lot of people are asking about offset. I can measure backspacing, but how do I measure the offset?

Offset is the hub face to centerline of wheel.
Say for the 10" wheel. 5" from inside hub face is the center.
Then measure at that 5" mark to the hub contact surface.
If the contact surface is outside of the centerline, then it's as negative offset.

If the wheels are still unsold when I sneak a few hundred more into my Shark account I'll gladly pay the full price but I doubt they will go unsold much longer.

Those can't be correct. Are you sure you measured properly? Measure the backspace: put the wheel on the ground face down and put a straight edge across the back. Stand a ruler straight up from where the wheel contacts the hub and measure the distance from there to the straight edge. This will give you backspacing. You can then convert this into offset.

so:
wdith in mm /2 backspacing Offset
Front 8.5 215.9 107.95 185 77.05
Rear 10 254 127 195 68
EDIT: How does one post a frickin' excel spreadsheet without having to make a jpg out of it?
