Default Alan and Fikse come through (pics)

I chased the ups man down today and all I can say is Wow. Thank god I narrowed that Fab 9 by 6", because those rears look awsome. I want to personally thank Danny for his great customer service. I probabibly would not have ordered these if it wasn't for your continuous feed back. Sorry he had to go.
So what do you guys think?

I agree. Two very different looks with a similar shape. Love that titanium finish.

It's at least got to make you feel better that they are still shipping.

Just wait til you get them in the daylight .

Danny was right in saying the "Titanium" is (or at least appears to be) darker than the previous "Dark Speed Silver" (which I have).

Gorgeous wheels you have there. I hope they were worth the wait. I can't think of a better looking wheel than an FM5 with a big dish.

Enjoy!
