Here is my front rims:


Just need to figure out what style of CCW matches them the closest.
why wouldn't you just buy the same wheels for your rear?

Well the reason why is because the rims I have for the fronts I got off a guy who found them in a private junkyard, mint condition. He then got them polished, there are several companies that make rims in this same style. Then for the rears I need to get them custom made for backspacing and 17x12.

Huh, those front wheels are one piece design. So they are Fikse rims? I have been unsure and the original seller didn't know either.

Yeah mine are one piece, not bolted together at all. Here is a different picture of my wheels to show they don't have the indentations for the bolts on the face of the rim...



Dunno I may have to keep searching to find out what kind they are. I'll probally just get some close matching CCW's for the rear and get matching CCW's for up front at a later date.

I really like CCW's, and I really like black/dark grey centers with polished lips on silver cars. I REALLY wish I could get the SP600 in a 5lug bolt patter But John says making that wheel in 5lug would screw up the design... AH LA the 5spoke, 5 lug only SP500.

Great wheels anyway you look at it.

If you think those are expensive, call Fikse and price their Profil series. I almost had a heart attack
