fikse usa wheels
i just was reading the local paper and found out that the Fikse USA INC makes forged wheels right here in the town i work in, Kent Washington.
my question is has anyone got any opinions or experience with them?
they say a large part of the wheels they sell go to racing teams. and in fact the winner at Le Mans last year had Fiske wheels
i've included a web link for anyone who would like to look at their product
http://www.fikse.com/yourcar.html
you can see a picture of a gs400 with their wheels on by scrolling thru a list of cars on that page.
thanks ivan

IMO some of the nicest wheels ever made...quality stuff, I've seen them up close on a Porsche 911 Turbo and and E46 M3 Bimmer...
Oh man, if they came in 20"s I'd sell my rims in an instant!!

I have always thought of Fiske as a boltless HRE (before HRE started doing boltless look!). I always thought they were of the same quality, dont know if I'm right though!

I don't like the wheels because of the hoop step it causes the center of the wheel to be smaller
I like a wheel made with a reverse hoop it gives the wheel a larger look.

To be totally honest, I kinda like the step design sometimes, adds a classy look, thats why I still like the regular HRE 540s! I mean reverse is def the issh, but stepped looks nice as well, IMHO

Seize, From your pic and with the Mothers polish sitting there that must be a satin polished Fiske wheel,it looks nice but with a reverse hoop it would be a beautiful wheel to me.
