I had been unable to reach TireSwap tonight and when I do, what do I find on their webpage I had not seen prior? Right below the SSR Competitions and Koseis, I see Fiske FM5 17"s. Go check them out! Nice move Eric, I have always had a hard time finding a good Fiske dealer.

Hey 84,

:) THey are quite pricey, but are some of the best and most respected wheels in the industry...

Check em out: http://www.fikse.com

Im still in the process of adding the entire Fikse line... I personally like the FM10s

I still have to add options for different finishes on the wheels from Race Satin to FULL POLISH!

question for you eric, are you going to start to carry big boy rims? i may be looking into some 19's when i finally get my car.

Nice

CUBE, if you email me, I can get quotes on any wheel.

I havent put any on my site because there really isnt any out there that are good quality, well performing and priced right.

I mean, you can get Fikses in 19s, but they are like $1k / wheel!

What wheel were you considering? Also, most people who goto 19s end up having bent wheel, tire bubble-type issues... and IMO, 19" wheels w/ 225 wide rubber just doesnt look very appealing to me.

hey eric, i don't know just yet on the rims, i am just looking for options right now. i still have a little time before the car comes in. but as soon as i am ready to buy, i will make sure to look you up. basically i am just trying to avoid rolling the fender if possible. i know that it has been done with success, i am just paranoid about stressing the paint and getting cracks. and the fiske 19" are out of my price range. especially being married to an accountant, heh heh.

Mazda Gremlyn · 04-09-2004, 04:08 PM

CUBE I would imagine that putting 19's on your car will require fender rolling no matter what.

CUBE · 04-13-2004, 12:59 PM

DOH! i guess i will have to roll the damn things. i just hope i don't get stress cracks. i know it would be safer to go with an 18, but dammit, i am stubborn and i love how a big rim looks.
