Default A new take on FM5's
I love these wheels but everyone has them so I wanted to do something different.

There's a reason why people don't go the route you did

I'm not a fan but if you like them then that's all that matters. I say leave the bright colored wheels for the ricers....

I think they could only be pulled off on a black car.

Geezus I hope this is a joke. Lowering is not going to help. Parking it permanately in a garage....door closed with the lights off is not going to help.

If this isnt a joke....consider your Fikse ownership card REVOKED!

Lol figured they wouldn't go over very well here. The blue wheels lure in the ricers and then I roll them up.

That just looks gross, but if you like it thats cool.


Personally, "colored" wheels look better on lighter colored cars IMO.
A gold or dark/yellow or bronze anodized color would have looked better.
