SC's and Carrera's w/Fikse

I just purchased an SC and I am trying to decide which wheels to put on it.
Please post pictures of SC's and Carrera's with Fikse or BBS wheels to help me decide.
Thanks.

Those are some beautiful cars.
This is going to be an easier decision than I thought.
Einreb, is that a RUF front bumper?
Thanks

Not an SC or Carrera, but thought you might like to see FM-5's as opposed to FM-10's. Much easier to clean!

MA shaw version of the RUF bumper. The propblem with the Fikse's (IMO) is that they are not exactly cheap. There are other similar wheels out there that have a nice look too...

I forgot who the manufacturer is of this setup (pm cstreit) but i think these run a lot less $....

Oh, and the overall best endorsement, Diane at Al Reed, when I told her I had fikse's (they polished my lug nuts) she said "ooo, Fikse, that's good metal"

I love all these cars but there's something about Ken's car that grabs me everytime I see it. Maybe it's the RED paint.

Thanks guys. I really miss that car. I am looking at a 87 930, or a 06 Boxster S as a replacement.

Chris's car is running CCW's sourced through Jerry @ Euro East.

I think Jerry's putting 18 inch CCW's on his car as soon as it's done.

Jerry has a set of 17" Kodiak's in his shop for Tristan's car that I saw on Saturday, very similar to the Fikse's but much less dinero!
