I really like their look, but at $4400 a set, that's not for me!!!

if you like FIKSE, please check out our sponsor iForged, they offer similar style custom looking multipiece wheels.

At one point I was checking out Fikse and had talked to them but the pricing are way up there so it became out of my league...

I wish I was, my friend had the FM10's on his NSX, 18 in the front and 19 in the back. Amazing wheels but 1k a piece...

They look just about the same as so many other wheels on the market.

Those Profil 5 would look good! Knowing FIKSE though, its going to cost an arm and a leg.

Fiske wheels are awesome wheels, wish I could afford them, they are a small expensive outfit that I heard caters to racing teams and make some very high quality wheels.

Here is a picture, although not of a 350 it is of a 300 in our club that has them and they look sweeeet.

A lot of people in this area run Fikse's, and they are by far the best quality wheel out there on the market. Not to mention that these wheels are probably the strongest, and survive pretty much any argicultural excusion at the track (and even accidents). While I shouldn't say this, Fikse has a policy that doesn't allow merchants to advertise a price lowered than their "minimum retail price." However, some retailers will sell you the wheels at that price, but if you get a set of tires along with it, they'll heavily discount them. All in all, if you wanted to get a set of say, 18x9 in the front and 18x10 in the rear, I think you can get them with tires for $4500 or a tad less.
