Kinesis are awesome wheels....not a big fan of the matte look but they can get away with that.

You can get Kinesis in any color or finish you want. Kinesis rival HRE and Fikse for quality. Expect to pay at least double what you would for the Volks though.

The Kinesis rims are actually slightly heavier than the Volks...lookswise I like the Kinesis better than the GT-7's though

I wish I had pics of when I had Doug’s K58's on my Silverstone. It looked NICE! Close to $1K per wheel is over my price range. Doug does deal with kinesis so you may be able to get a better price through him.

Doug says to call Allen at Kinesis Motorsports

His number is 800-888-6754. Tell him Doug @ Crawford Z Car sent you and he will hook you up!

May I recommend the reverse drop center. The give the illusion of a bigger wheel!
