fitting wheels from a kxf.

<< < (2/4) > >>

tunster:
sorry i should have said 88 k5 and wheels from a 2005 kxf250. :?

alward25:
My 2001 K5 has Warp 9 KXF 450 wheels on it.  Warp 9 told me the only difference is the rotor and rear spacer adapters.  If I change the rear wheel spacers they will fit right on 450. 

Goat:
I thought I read on here a while back that: The rear disc was bigger in diameter and the bolt pattern was different on the kxf than the k5 and you had to either get the disc cut down or make a bracket to move the caliper?

alward25:
I read that too, I will double check.  I have  a KX500 rotor I will compare to my Warp 9 hub.

don46:
the rear rotor is not only larger, but has 4 bolts holding it on where as the 500 has 6. The wheels will definately fit, you may have to make some custom spacers, no big deal if you have a friend with a lathe and as someone has said they make spacer kits. I would also think the front would use different spacers from the f to the 500, but again a little modifying and your golden.
