Fikse FM5 or Gram Lights 57 Pro, you tell me???

I am interested in the 17's in Fikse FM5 polished and the 18's in 57 Pro in gunmetal with polish lip.

Let's say price did not matter, which would you pick.

But, usually Prices matter. If so, .... Still Fikse! The fact that you're even considering Fikse, then you should go with that!

Another vote for Fikse. Like Kinesis, et al., these wheels are are built-to-order and of high quality, and are graced strictly on high-end cars. When was the last time you saw Gram Lights on a Porsche or Viper???

Here are the 57 Pro's on my FD. 18x9 front/18x10 rear. The Fikse's are bank and personally I like 57 Pro's better.

Fikse's are beautiful, and much higher quality. However, they do take more maintainence in the form of rim lip polishing, unless you get an all-anodized finish, like the all black.

Everyone and their mom has the 57's. Its like comparing apples to **** in my opinion. . . . Not saying that Volk is a bad wheel or anything, but my vote is for Fikse.
