Default Fikse Mach Vs, should I buy them or let them pass

I cant find any good pics of these wheels on a f body, found one on a Vette. Some guy near me is selling a set of Fikse Mach Vs in good condition, just dirty from what I can see for $375. They are 17x8, 18x10. Should i jump on them? If anyone has better pics I'd appreciate it.

Will you be replacing the WS6 wheels? I'm totally biased of course, but I haven't found a wheel that looks better than the stock WS6 wheels, either the early version or the speedlines...

Agreed. That is one of those "too good to be true" deals. At the very least, buy them, clean them up, and sell them for more.

Those are my pics, they looked great on the persons pewter WS6 that bought them. I liked them but had about 7 other sets of wheels and tires so I sold them. Sort of reminded me of a Z06 wheel but nicer, imo. $375 is a good deal, lmk if you pass on them and send me the info. If you want an ugly wheel, buy CCW Classics

I would definitely buy em, clean em up, powdercoat centers, and slap some meats on them for a nice track setup

Not at all... I just think CCW Classics are the KMC Hammers of the 21st century.

Hate you passed them up but it's all in what you want though.
