I had a similar experience although slightly shorter timeframe. I ordered mine late May, paid 100% up front and did not check on them until after around 11 weeks and they were supposed to ship that week
Two weeks later another call and they were supposed to be shipping again. I contacted Fikse directly and Danny was responsive but told Jon at Driverz that I had contacted him and he bristled at me contacting them directly. When thousands of dollars are on the line I'm going to contact whoever I please. The communication from Driverz was less than stellar and at the time I blamed them because I wasn't aware that so many people were having similar experiences with Fikse.
Eventually after like 15-16 weeks (read: 4 months) my wheels arrived and it was only then that I saw people, yourself included reporting having similar issues that I pinned it on Fikse.
I haven't really been delayed because of it but your post does make me want to double check the finishes on my wheels, as I have not even opened every box.
