1. What other rims 12mm hex have the same offset for the front and rear?

I do have a load of redundant 14mm hex rims just wandering is there any way of modifying or getting an adapter to fit in the k2.

2. I do have a load of Losi and ae big bore springs.is there a shock spring retainer I can buy so I can use these springs?

Thanks

James

Team asso wheels, j-concepts wheels, for spring retainers, avid one's do perfectly the job.

Thanks.

I have seen the avid shock retainers but at £12 a pair it's expensive.

Are there any plastic shock retainers that is a straight fit from any other manufacturer?

I guess as avid are supposed to replace associated and losi, these ones should work.

I've always used standard associated spring cups on my kf2 shocks. They fit ok!
K2 and Kf2 shocks should be the same I think..
