Never owned Fikse before, but I'm considering ordering these wheels. Anyone have good/bad Fikse experience?

 

here's a pic on a tt

 

My pops had a TT for a bit @ the our old dealership with those wheels on it. They were very light and seemed strong. My problem with them... I think they looked like crap on the car, but thats just personal preference.
Here is a photo of that car:

Also another plus is the 18's fit a big brake kit (including PCCB) as this car had PCCB:

From Fikse's website. I think they look killer -- you really don't like them?

 

Kind of plain. Don't really care for them.

 

You won't find anything better in terms of quality, strength and lightness than a Fikse wheel, generally speaking, imo.

 

I like the simplicity. I consider the absence of the "ring of bolts" look to be a virtue.

 

I have 18" Fikse Profil 13's on my TT and they're great, I happen to like the stepped lips. They do require extra care in that you have to polish the lips with a good metal polish 3 or 4 times a year because the lips are not coated. Waxing after polishing slows down the tarnishing process. Ralphe Boothe center caps like the photo above adds a nice finishing touch.

 

I have to say they look pretty boring and even though they're exceptional quality they don't look it.

Another vote for 'no' here.

 

Fikse is one of the better wheel companies out there. I had a set on my old 993 and they were beautifully made and very light. They take responsibility for the product and have tight control over thier processes. You may or may not like the wheel pictured but I can tell you that they are excellent to deal with from personal experience.

 

Great wheels but does not show enough rotor and caliper, they look old old old!

 

I have this wheel for sale that are being sold as used but are practicly brand new with tires only a few miles were they on the car I can give to you smokn deal please call Bo at FVD-USA (954) 977-7130 x 16.I can send to you pictures.It is this same wheel that is posted now
