I should have my sets in a couple of days, and then I will post pics. Cstreit should be getting his any day now too.

I am hoping to pick them up tomorrow if they are ready.....

Cheers

Jeff,
Dont you sell the Kodiaks?

[Jeff Alton]

Yes, I do. I can be contacted off line with questions. (out of respect for the hosts)

I just don't have my own sets here yet!! In fact my car does not have any wheels right now! They should be ready any day and I will post pics and of the wheels both with tires mounted and without. I will also show them on and off the car.

Cheers

I got a set of S5's (similar to BMW's M parallel) 8.5 & 10 x 17s coming for my car... Will post pictures once I get them on. Lou

The are Kodiak's that I purchased from Kanna motorsports with custom made centers. I have been meaning to post a thread on the car as its been my winter project.

Gorgeous onefstm!

Thanks Brandon.

Ruf Bumpers, RS Carpet and door panels, lightweight sound deadening. It weighed 2540 with AC and 3/4 tank of gas at its recent corner balancing prior to adding my weight to the drivers seat. Not too shabby for an 87. Also, with Bilstein sports and a Steve Wong chip, its a lot of fun to drive. Here's a pic of the cars interior and also when I picked the car up last October. ca

Those are the "RT" and they look very nice on your car! 7.5 and 9.0 I am guessing?

Here are some close-ups of the RT's in the standard finish - fully polished:

Wish they'd make them with flat edge rings like Fuchs wheels.

Jeff,

Thanks. Actually these are 17x8 and 17x9. I have been extremely happy with the wheels. However, you will need to fabricate an aluminum adapter to use a center cap if you are interested in having a center cap. With the wheels on the car, the dust cap will stick out of the front wheels while the axle bolt will stick out slightly on the rear wheels. If you are interested in more information on this fitment issue, I can post a few pictures.

onefstm,
ANy close-up's or details on fitment would be appreciated. I think I'm going to order a set of RT's this weekend in that polished finish.

On the front wheels I seem to rememeber the spacers being 3/4 of an inch. The fronts have two set screws which are tightened front the outside into the dust covers.

The rear spacers are 1/2 inch. They have set two set screws each that tighten from the inside on to the center lip of the rear wheels.

Once you guys get your wheels, I can take my spacers off, take pictures, and give you specific measurements.

[onefstm]

The first two pictures are of the front wheel. The last two are of the rear wheel.

[North Coast Cab]

Thanks, does it look strange with the caps spaced out like that?

John,

I will take some close ups for you. Actually, if you didn't know to look, it would not be noticeable. Once the rears are installed, they are so small that you barely notice you have spacers installed. The front's do stand out a bit but still look great.

On a side note, I ordered centers for Fikse Fm10's thinking that they may work without adapters. If someone wants to adapt a set of these centers to work on your Kodiaks, I would be willing to sell them cheap.

[Jeff Alton]

The wheels can be built to get around the centercap problem. If they are specc'd to clear large brakes, this *should* not be an issue and the there will be more "meat" or depth to the mounting area.

Cheers
