Paul, they look great on the machine and the weight savings is an added bonus. Unprung weight savings will give you greater braking and turn-in for sure!!

Kenny from what I understand there is 9lbs a corner on the front and 11lbs a corner in the rear! I wish I had access to a iron rotor stock GT3 to feel the difference.
thanks for the thoughts

IHate: Honestly I have received 1 dont like for every 15 likes so I appreciate your opinion as much as those who liked it.
I think your opinion might be different if you could see them in person. I have not done a good job of taking pictures to represent how good they look in person. You probably hate my photography skills more than the wheels.

thanks

Paul,
I like em. For those you have ever seen or owned Fikse wheels they are a very high quality wheel. No bling, just all business.

Exactly. I used to get compliments on mine from people who really knew what they were talking about. They are admired for the quality and performance. I know a few guys who just order a new set of Fikses for each car they buy as they go along.

I even had a couple of guys offer to buy mine at rallies & the track. They do hold their value nicely on the used market to!

Honestly the car looks amazing with the new wheels, low weight wheels is the key since the car is a track oriented sports car.

What I would do next is a set of carbon fiber side mirrors
Cargraphic Grill to protect the radiator.
Sharkwerks exhaust.
