Kinesis Motorsport 17" wheel set in VERY good condition. These wheels were origionally ordered for a Camaro in 17x9 et52 all around. I had the rears widened to be 17x10" et38, so they are currently 17x9 et52 fronts and 17x10 et38 rears but can be changed to be wider or nattower, fronts and/or rears.
These wheels have only been used for a few thousand miles. The centers have the origional anodized grey Kinesis finish. The outer lips are polished. Everything looks brand new.
I am willing to change the fitment / widths of these wheels for an additional $150 per wheel. Basically, say you want the rears back to 17x9 et52, I can do that by adding 1.5" outer lips to the rears to make them narrower, for $150 per wheel.
Email me for inquiries and/or more pictures. I have detailed pictures of each wheel.

$1790 + shipping via fedex ground anywhere in the continental US for $119, or local pickup in Seattle.

What year Camaro. Will those rears fit a 69 without minitubbing? Very interested.

I have no idea, i'm not a Camaro guy in the least bit. Amir, do you know the answer to this?

no they are too aggressive..
for a stock 69 your best bet is a 5 inch rear and an 4.5 in front..
7 inches of backspacing is too high..

I have 18x10 with a 6" backspace on the rear of my 69 Firebird and it is a tight fit.
I think you could only use those 9" fronts with an aftermarket subframe.

Thanks Amir and Don for your input.
Keep in mind, I can change the 10" rears back to 9's if necessary, but doing narrower outer lips or narrower inner barrels. Not sure if that would make a difference on helping with fitment on that guy's car or not.

those wheels will fit 4th gen camaros and firebirds good and wont need any adapters like the earlier ones will need.

hey thanks, i really appreciate that!
Can you change the backspacing??
Yes - the backspacing can be lowered by adding a spacer or adding a wider outer lip, or it can be raised by adding a wider inner barrel or adding a narrower outer lip.

Damn... I wish I had the money for these. They'd be perfect for the '00 Z28 I just got. Best of luck with the sale.
