I had a set of the original Kinesis SuperCups on my car until one of the rears developed cracks on 2 of the spokes. I ended up putting the original D90s back on--really miss the way the SuperCups look.
Kinesis had no replacement parts available.

Hey Chuck, sorry to hear about your blue lugnuts.... they appear to match your car, however!
Nice pup in your avatar- it looks very blonde like my female golden, Bear. I have a medium red color one, too.

unfortunately today, all revolves around bling & $¢$¢$¢$.... i'm really sad to hear this about kinesis. and about the fate of this wheel... you know it will become a 24" for the h's & calades.......
i'll look for them on jigga's new rover when i'm back in nyc

It will be interesting to see how "public" the acquisition becomes. Lexani may work very hard at keeping the Kinesis Brand and approach...and thus keep them at arms length....
...still it is going to be hard to ignore the fact that the parent company makes those fugly wheels they do...IMHO.
Maybe we'll start to see "spinners" at the track...
