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 always thought of them that way as well, but also that they belong on american or maybe german cars. i really imagine them on muscle cars 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.

They make some old school high quality wheels. They have been in business for years. You're lucky to have such reputable wheel company in town.

Example of a reverse hoop wheel:

Look the step is in the back!

Here's a example of quality Fikse wheel on my neighbor's car

Look at step on the Fiske:

That's why I called them old school wheel company. But they are coming out with reverse lip designs SOON.

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

Lexkost

Reverse hoop design wheel is also a stronger wheel and a lot of them have the valves stems on the inside to give a cleaner look .

step lip or not....Fikses ROCK!!! If this came in 20" fitments...I'd kiss my current wheels goodbye

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.
