Same, I was very pleasantly surprised with how well they looked after the rebuild. But it cost a lot to get them there and I wasn't even going to be close to breaking even at the end of the day, so I think this route will be safer. Between the two sets I'll get most of my money back due to the deal I got on the Equips.

You wouldn't be able to clear them, much less afford them :P
They're going to end up a 19x12/10.5 with most likely negative offsets front and rear. I'll do the math once they're assembled but it's gonna take some work to fit them. I can't picture in my head how the disc thickness is going to affect the final offset but it's easy to calculate once they're together.

Exactly the same problem I had with the KFs, lol. Just hoping the fact that their Equips can separate a Z guy from some cash. I don't see them ending up on a G, but could be wrong. Been so busy swapping bushings, tweaking suspension, and going to school I haven't even gotten the tires off the KFs yet

Oh, I thought the specs would be the same as the vs-kf since you're using the barrels and lips of them..

The Equips sandwhich mount, where as the KFs clamshell mount, so the Equips are a half inch wider, and more aggressive due to the thicker discs.

thegreatkwijibo: The KFs will be an 18x9, 18x10 setup, I have to recalculate the offsets when they come together because I just don't remember anymore. But definitely not aggressive, 2" front and 3" rear lips, unless I can find an awesome deal on a pair of 4-4.5" lips and move the 3s up front for a still non-aggressive 10/11 stagger. Haven't had any luck finding a pair in decent shape yet but I'm still looking. Probably do them for 2k as a 9/10, maybe 22-2300 as a 10/11 stagger unless I get a much better deal on the new lips I'd like to find them.

Well I want to do a meaty tire setup with nothing more than a fender roll so thats exactly what I'm lookin for. When you get em done, pm me and I'll see if I can scrape together the cash.
