Wanted: Pics of E39 M5 with Fikse Wheels

I did a search and came up with one picture of an E39 M5 with Fikse wheels -- a blue one in the Seattle area...

Does anyone have any other pictures of an E39 M5 with any type of Fikse wheels?

You must be talking about Dan's beautiful Lemans M5! He posts on here under the callsign "whattheheck." I'm sure he'll be more than happy to help you out with your decisionmaking process on those wheels.

Does anyone have feedback on these wheels in terms of quality and customer service? I was at a local tuner shop the other day and they won't deal with Fikse at all. You'd think, being that Fikse is based up here in WA, that the relationships with local shops would be good, however, this tuner shop said their quality isn't very good and their customer service is horrible.

I know they look good, but what have people's experiences been?

Fikse is one of the top "small" wheel manufacturers in the US. Very high quality.

Here's mine. I am here in Everett, WA. I can meet up with you on a weekend if you wish so you can see it in person.

Quality wise = Top notch. No complaints whatsoever.

They are lightweight. Stock M5 wheels are almost 26 lbs each. These are 19 lbs. each. That's 24 lbs total reduction in weight.

Customer Service wise: Dont know. I never had to call them for anything.

Dan
