As the title says. I know these wheels are pricy, but they look amazing. I just want to see some cars with them in one thread, instead of having to look around. Thanx!

they are nice, but for that kinda money id rather buy some zr1s or something and add something else to the car. the price tag is simply outrageous. what happens when you curb one, 800.00 for one new rim? f- that.

Not really, they are a multi piece wheel so you can replace just that section, but I do see your point, and a very valid one!

I've driven and owned 4 Transam now and never 'curbed' a rim. I autox and drag race it too. Been driving cars since 1984 and never curbed a rim except once really drunk in a 1990 Tempo. What are you doing that 'curbing' is a real concern? I have the Fikse FM5's.

Who knows? Maybe he lets the wife/girlfriend drive his car?

Talk about a crapshoot

those are my favorite wheels.
I almost bought a mint set here for $2200 with tires a couple of years ago. Saw the forsale thread less than a week after I bought my ZR1's with Tires. Was so tempted but couldn't justify spending $3K on wheels and tires at the time.

Are you 'serious'? I don't care if your a 'perfect driver' or not, 'curbing' your wheels is very common, and while I may have never 'seriously' done it myself, its a very costly thing to happen to a rim. Not everyone is a 'perfect driver' like you apparently are, and that's a 'large risk', and a 'large amount of money' I personally don't think I'd ever want to put myself into.

Furthermore, what happens if you let your 'friend' drive, or your wife, or girlfriend? I suppose you would say you don't ever let them, but w/e, I like the rims but for the cost and the fact that 'accidents' do happen from time to time, I'd rather have rims that are a dime a dozen or not super expensive. kthxbye
