Web site says "available in 18" and 19" applications"

http://www.fikse.com/profil.html

Does that mean no 17" sizes? Rishie? anyone?

Thanks for the info, if nobody knows I'll call them this afternoon...

Wow,
I hadn't heard about this new line, but a can't really discern any big differences between these and the original wheels. Are they considered a more economical line, or a higher-end?

SleepR1

Ohhh, I love the Profil 13

rx7gslse

well, it says modular, so ideally it should be cheaper system to manufacture...

Whether or not that transferrs to MSRP I wouldn't hold my breath.

Their old (now "classic") wheels are all modular as well. The DOESN"T equate to cheap usually. I think most modulars such as Fikse, Kenesis, HRE are outrageously priced. $1000 per wheel? Robbery. No wheel should be that much... even forged magnesium.

Modulars advantage is usually a mor custom fitment and reparability.

$1000/wheel, I think I'm going to be sick...

nocab72:
You may get away a little cheaper for 17" (i'm gusing your gonna try the A032's?).... maybe $750 per?

What finish are you gonna get? I've seen a set of black FM-10's in person and they are awesome! You've already blown your stealth-factor, so think about it... :-)

I think Rishie is a dealer for Fikse... he'll get a better deal than calling them directly!!

nocab72

hrmmm...black on silver I'll have to photoshop some of that in and check it out...(will post)

Nocab,

Hit me up cause I think we may submit a few orders. If it works out I might be able to get us into better pricing. I stopped doing a lot of business this year due to the change in price structure.

I got a couple of inquiries so let me know ASAP and I can get everyone a better deal this way.

Thanks, Rishie

Rishie - *ding* you have a PM.

Did someone say black on silver?

vosko

only because TOY is my buddy and i want to make nocab jealous

nocab72

Toy - you are the man!!!

Vosko - you suck.

Here was my lousy attempt to see what black wheels looked like on my car...

I'm thinking Volk CE28N's in Racing Black on my car with CF hood and CF covered horizontal rear spoiler piece

ptrhahn

iTrader: (9)

I told ya. der-licious.

ARD T2

iTrader: (22)

vosko

oh yeah mr hahn may not know it but i met him at MADS in february. he is a maniac on a road course

Brad

I just wish they made those Fikse's without the gay stepped lip. I like my rims like I like my pizza...deep dish

ptrhahn

iTrader: (9)

Nobody makes the PERFECT wheel do they? Wish i had the cheeze to pay someone to do one-offs for me like JimLab.

Vosko:
I like to think i am a maniac on a roadcourse, but I havn't been on one since Watkins Glen in May 2001, and before that it was spring MADS 2000. You may have me confused w/ my twin brother Ed Hahn with the grren FD?

vosko

iTrader: (4)

DOH. whoops. there are two of you!!! didn't know that. that's cool yeah the kermit the frog green one along with all the red one's

ptrhahn

iTrader: (9)

Yup, thats ED. he actually lives about 100 yards from me, but is not my brother. He's a korean "hahn" and i'm a german "hahn"

Thats some crazy green, eh?

vosko

iTrader: (4)

yeah its pretty crazy i like my car to be a sleeper. i think your goal in life, both of you is to confuse rx7 owners. so far its working

Although I like Classic Mach V alot, the Profil 5S is tight . It does say 18 &19's, so I doubt we can get 17's. Is anyone going to be buying with tax return money? I won't be able to buy mine untill (feb/mar) then. Oh and Yes, they are a insane price without a decent discount!!! What do you guys think about a Race Black center section and full polish rim finish?
Rishi: What will be the pricing for the Profil line? ...can you PM me, please?

dclin

iTrader: (4)

Rishie, PM me some prices on 18X10 +41ish (tentative) and 18X11 +11ish for both Profil 10s and the Classic FM10s, polished lip/black centers.

Thanks!
