Wow so somebody else noticed Coddington's "rip-off" wheels huh? I ordered the Timeless 2's just recently because of their striking similarity to the FM/5 which is just out of my price range. Unfortunately my wheels wont arrive until Early/Mid October... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

Re: FM5's or FM10's?
Sorry, no flame but I don't see any resemblance between the FM5 and the Timeless. They are totally opposite if you ask me. The FM5 spokes widen at the top while the T2's stay the same width. The FM5's center is deeper than the rest of the rim and the T2 is completely flat with the spokes. They are both five stars though.

Re: FM5's or FM10's?
Has anyone seen the BBS LM wheels? I might be able to pick a set up from my cousin.. I think they're about as close to the FM10s as you can get!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> These are also forged!!

Re: FM5's or FM10's?
OK time to plug my CCW's. They look more like the FM10 than the BBS LM, in fact I think they look better than the FM10 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> BTW, I think the BBS LM is even more expensive than the Fikse <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

FM5! I love the classic look of 'em. They're so damn <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> but to each his own...this is just like the Ford vs Chevy debate.....oh wait, thats a no brainer! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[devil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" /> My vote, FM5s!

Re: FM5's or FM10's?
I can pick up the LMs with new tires for $2800. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
Tapout, do you have any more pics of that car?

Re: FM5's or FM10's?
Well, I'm probably getting the forged BBS LMs so I just want to see how your wheels look at different angles on the car. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

The fiskes are the best looking rims if you can afford them! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />
