Kinesis K18R's 19"
As the title says, I have a set of Kinesis K18R's. THe dimensions are as follows. However I'm not sure of the offsets, I've read that Kinesis doesn't "mention" a offset. I bought them off a guy who had a 997.
19 x 9.5
19 x 12
The wheels are in great conditions, the lips however could use a good re-polish, they seem to have some small scratching and water spots. Nothing that could be fixed with a little elbow grease. Did my best to capture the lips.
Looking for $2k paypal'd/shipped, however offers are entertained.
Thanks, Alex

From looking, it appears they could fit 993TT, but no way of really knowing until you get some measurements. Looks like the rear outer lips are 3" or 3.5", which is 993TT territory (3" conservative fitment, 3.5" aggressive). Could be too wide on the rear inner halves if 3" outers.

And the fronts are as follows, The lip is roughly 1.5" and the inner barrel is 6.5"-7".
The only thing I know for sure is that they'll fit on a 997 Carrera S, because that's what the guy I bought them from had.
I just wish Kinesis stamped the wheels with an offset.

I have measured what you mentioned, The outer lip of the rears is roughly 3" and the inner barrel measures roughly 7.5".
And the fronts are as follows, The lip is roughly 1.5" and the inner barrel is 6.5"-7".

19's don't look good on 993s IMO.
will confirm with Chairman Meow and get back to you.
cheers

They are sharp and a very good price. Isn't it true that if they fit a NB Pcar, they'll fit a WB with spacers? There are peeps that prefer not to run spacers.
I also believe 19's on a 996 or earlier Pcar looks good for bling but does more harm than good for aggressive driving.

Call Kinesis this afternoon. Apparently they were sold to another company and Kinesis didn't copy over they specifications, or computer system, so the guy couldn't do anything with the serial numbers.
So, I'm kinda stuck at a dead end.

Bumping this back up, because these are now back to being for sale. The potential buyer helped me calculate the offsets, and we came to the conclusion that the specs are as follows.
Front = 8.5" ET 53
Rear = 11.0 " ET 54
With, know this is seems that these were made for a C4S and not a C2S.

Measurements provided by Alex
Front = 8.5" wide, Backspace = 6.825" Calculated ET = 53mm
Rear = 11.0" wide, Backspace = 8.125" Calculated ET = 54mm
IMO these front wheels will fit most modern 911s and the rears will fit Wide Body 911s, 993 on up.
I was shopping for NB wheels, so i have to pass on these beauties.
Craig
Ps, calculated ET = Backspace value - (width X 0.5)
