Default FS 4 Fikse FM5 17" centers ONLY!!!

I have a set of 17" Fikse FM5 center sections. I bought them used. They where polished at some point. No curb rash to speak of, and over all condition is good. All you will need is to have them repolished or painted, and send them to Fikse to get inner and outer hoops. I have 4 center caps as well. I will have pics by the weekend for those who would like to see them. As far as price I have no idea so to put a price on this $250 plus shipping OBO. Any questions do not hesitate to PM or email me.

Until I get my camera from the wife here are some pics of the wheels from when I bought them.



Thanks
Bob S.

Well I seperated the wheels because they where the wrong offset and was going to have them re-hooped at Fikse.

i might be interested in these. i have fikse's fm5 already. 17x9.5 front and 17x11 rear. i was thinking of powdercoating my centers black. it would be pretty cool to have a polished set of centers, i could interchange them out maybe if possible. how hard is to get the centers out of the hoops. like what do you have to do.

It is quite hard to seperate the sections. First there is like 30 bolts and there is also some gasket material.

Any idea on the costs of getting the new hoops and installation?

I have called Fiske about this, they want something like $450 per wheel plus labor and all the jazz. They will not just send you the hoops, you must send them in.

When I called Fikse to have them re-hooped. It would cost 1850.00 to have them rehooped and new hardware installed.
