Rick, I ran those on my yellow camaro. Great detail and quality. Alot of cool wheels out there, can never go wrong with Fikse.

Hope you have a tire guy you trust to mount them, that is always a nervous time. See if they have a Hunter Machine. Good Luck, you should be smilin!!

Sounds real nice Rick ! Post some pics of them !

I just cant figure out why Fikse is behind the times and does not use a reverse lip design .

Rick asked that I'd post these up for him.

I actually own the reverse lip with my Intro Pentias and often wish I would have got the standard lip. I think the standard lip makes for easier mounting...and you could pretty much trust any tire buster to mount/balance your tires...with my wheels I'm always sweating bullets during tire mounting...not my favorite past time!!

In my mind, Fikse wheels are more geared towards the race track not the show circuit, which to me explains why they still use a standard hoop...not that they aren't very high quality and they look sweet!! I hope to own some sooner than later!!

Looks great! I love those wheels!
