New Fikse Wheels

Well finally finished up the 3.6 conversion last fall. Hadn't driven more than 10 miles in it and off we went to Hershey. Not a bad test drive. Other than a CV joint that came loose, no problems, that torque sure makes for a nice driver on the highway. Anyway just an excuse to post a pic with the new Fikse FM-10s.

Todd

Nice wheels! really like the black centers too.

Here's what his car looks like from behind while trying to keep up. Your car looked and sounded great!

I picked the wheels up used


One was bent but I knew that when I bought them. Sent it back to Fikse for repair.

We actually ended up coming back Saturday night. Had nice weather for the drive.

Yikes! That car looks alot like the '84 Cab that belonged to long ago Pelicanite Jeff Bryant in Dallas, which had black center/anodized lip FM10's.

Jeff hasn't posted on this board in a few years, but here's a photo of his car from 2000 or 2001.

Very nice. Good call on the black centers. I love my FM-10s but they are difficult to keep clean.
