Nice! You can't go wrong with FIKSE, Formula 45 or Forgeline.

I've always had the fastest delivery with Forgeline. Always 3 weeks.

Some of the styles are similar but imo Formula 43 makes a higher quality wheel, they manufacture 100% of the wheel including spin forming their own barrels.

Awesome process--I was able to watch it first hand.

And they look great; just check out Tim's Camaro above...

FYI...I was the main sales person at Fikse from 2002-2006. Good to see Fikse still around as they were one of the very first to create so many features on three piece wheels that are standard today for so many other manufacturers.

I moved to Detroit in 2010 to help start FORMULA 43 Wheels.
