I bought these wheels (and center caps) in '03, and when I ordered I specified "Blank" center caps (no Fikse logo.) Then I was going to have the SS machined in but a friend and member on here who worked with Afterthoughts Auto made me these decals which look machined but waaaaaaay cheaper!

Where'd you pick up the carbon fiber grill from?

Crazy you guys have extensive wait times for the wheels. Hope you get them soon.

Wow 285 fronts ?!? Dont you rub on hard turns ? I have 275 fronts and run on on/off freeway ramps if I take them too hard.

It just barely rubs the inside right above where the front bumper fascia wraps around the inner fender well, only once in a while under extremely tight turns.

I have been running 295's and lowered for years.

There is actually more room in the front than the rear
