Jeff, don't you think your suspension needs work first?

Yes, however not swapping that out until after XMas. Going with HD/M033.

So in the meantime....I know Ruf wheels are the bomb but the SCups with the greyish centers would look A++ with my grey top. Just saying.

These wheels look great and at that price, should go fast. If your concerned about polishing them, they appear to have similar rims as mine. I keep mine polished with a Mothers Powerball on a high speed drill and very small amounts of Optimum metal polish once a year. Easy and the results are fantastic. If I didn't have my wheels already, I would buy these in a minute.

The pictures above don't quite seem to represent the gray centers accurately - the color is somewhere between those pictures & this picture below. It's a very nice color.

I must admit I don't know much about these wheels so how would these compare to Veloce RS in terms of weight and strength? I was considering a new set of Veloce in the new year for about $1800.00. Any thoughts. Thanks Doug

Veloce is a 1 piece wheel and u think these are a 3 piece wheel , veloce wheels are also not as strong as this wheels on the other hand I have a pair of veloce wheels and the only thing I didn't like about them is that the small bolts that go around the wheel comes off easily

Just FYI, I haven't bought these yet. Still dreaming and looking through the store window.

I didn't want to imply these are mine. GLWS!

I do love those Kinesis wheels. Used to look at them a lot on their website a few years ago.

I ONLY covet 17, 18, and some 19 inch wheels that I don't own. I have to draw the line somewhere.

Actually some 16's too.

Stop staring at me! I feel like confessing all my sins.

I tried fitting one of the front supercups on my C4S last night & they DID NOT clear the big reds. It looks as though a small (~5mm) spacer would be required.

Thanks for all the interest so far!

i might be interested in 17" NB version of these or similar in that size.
my 18" HREs are cool but are WB offset i was told,
and they bang the targa around a bit much.
if OP or anyone else wants to sell/swap, please advise.
