Thumbs up FM5 Prices

Im looking for prices on 17x11 Fikse FM5's

Everywhere i look it says "call" which usually means they can change their prices whenever they feel...

What are the general prices that most pay for these?

It more then likely means that prices vary due to sizing or how the wheel is built. The majority of manufactures and vendors are not out to trick the customers or rip them off.

not a lecture here...just a few comments for you or others reading this. Price can be an important decision maker, but many customers overlook customer support for low-balled pricing. Then they (customer) gets mad when something goes wrong with a sale or product, the vendor doesn't support them. Keep e-bay sales on e-bay.

...stick with a vendor whom is reputable as well one whom has good feedback and rapport with the customer, don't just look at price.

Good luck with your purchase. They are very nice wheels.

Shoot poolfanatic a PM and ask what MTI charges for FM5s. Ive gotten a quote from him in the past, but I cant remember the amount.

steve, good points. A lot of times, we dont take into account certian things like that when we're shopping around. We just want a price. But its nice to hear that side of things from someone in the industry.

Alot of good points in this thread.

MTI shows prices on their web page:

http://www.motorsporttech.com/fbody_wheels_tires01.asp

Prices do depend on finish, size, shipping, etc...

Call up MTI and see if they are having a sale on them, very often they do have sales on Fikse wheels.


Peace,
Craig.
