I hear this pronounced a few different ways. What do you think???

I've heard "Fik-see".

Drago · Drago's Garage

Moses is correct.

Yes, you forgot the obligatory "none of the above".

"Fik-see", is correct, but strangely enough, the guy's name is Fiske.

The wheels that come out of that place (which are made right here in my/Drago's back yard) are very functional works of art! I will own a set one day, preferably on a 993TT

Our local PCA region got to tour their factory last weekend. Way cool. And so are the Fikse brothers.

It's fik-see, alright. And those FM-10s rock, especially for a track car. And 315/35ZR 17s fit just perfectly in the back on 11 inch wheels, properly spaced. Fikse will build whatever you need, too. Great company. Best bang for buck in the three piece market, in my opinion, but I'm a local, so I'm biased.
