Anyone running the Kics with hubcentric rings out there ?
Any particular reason for choosing these? they won't work on the front wheels. YOu can only use Adapter style spacers on the rear due to the wheel design and the protruding studs.

Hubcentric is important....Think about the Ichiba spacers instead (for the rear anyway). Lots cheaper and the hubring is included. Add Hubrings to the Kics and you have a VERY expensive set-up. Ultimately it is better to put in longer studs and use standard spacers which are cheaper still Several how-to's are in the DIY section

Ichiba:
