Question Fiske Rims

I'm trying to decide between Fiske and TTII rims, but I can't seem to find a site that sells Fiske.

maybe because you are searching for Fiske... and should be searching Fikse.
Lots of places sell them.

If you go through Fikse you will pay alot more. I know I priced them first before I priced anyone else.

Yeah, but TT2s are a dime a dozen. If you're rollin' on Fikse's you'll be noticed more often and you won't be confused with someone else's similar F-body b/c you are running some $$$ rims.

oh i hear you man, Im just saying, how can you be considering both rims, they are on the totally opposite end of the wheel spectrum. You got tt2's which are common and DAMN cheap, and fikse which are much more rare and $$$$. Usually people decided between tt2 and zr1's, or fikse and HRE, but tt2 and fikse is one hell of a difference to be choosing between, if you have the cash there should be no choice at all.

Yea, I totally agree, JoeJ. Two VERY different ends of the spectrum.

I don't know Fikse's are kinda played

Seriously though I can see how you can compare, I think on a black z28 or dark blue one I'd be all over the TTII's. On a bird though I think the Fikse's look better. TTII's are pretty heavy too if that matters to you.

Todd, can you get me prices on what some 18x11's for the rear and 18x9.5's for the front would be........FM5's with the full polish

Any prices on tires to fit that too would be great......

I picked up a set of (6) FM5's used in mint shape for $2500 with rubber last summer.
Very happy with the quality and the many compliments they receive.

The guy I bought them off of initially purchased 4 17 x 9.5. But when he mounted them on the car, he did not like the way the stuck out in the front. So he order 2 17 x 9 for the front. So I have 2 17 x 9.5 spares in my basement. I think I will use them for a set of ET streets or in the event a rim gets damaged. I drove 25 hours round trip from Toronto to Long Island to pick these rims up. Maybe I am crazy, but no one in my area has a set and I'm happy.
