ok bud, we see your argument, which is why you see many more HRE R series than Fikse on these Lexus'. Go go a corvette forum and i'll bet you see the opposite

seize i've seen a picture of your wheels and i think they are most beautiful wheels i've seen on club lexus.

could you post a picture of yours with those beautiful hi-polished lips?


i like the one that you posted a picture of, i think that one is the Profil 10. if it had a reverse lip design i'd like it even better.

which finish of theirs do you like the best? i think i like the Full Polish best, with the TechniPolish 2nd.
i wonder if diamond turned center on the TechniPolish is the same as brushed. i guess i need to see it.
someone said that the picture you posted had a satin finish is that the same as brushed?

i'm really surprised they don't have 20" wheels.


thanks to everyone for all the positive comments about Fikse
i'm excited to know there is a local outfit making high quality forged wheels..



i think i'll go down and visit them. they are only about 2 miles from where i work.
i'll take a copy of this thread with me and see if i can get any feedback.

3dog - thanks for the compliments...yeah I love my wheels and love the look the give my car...I doubt I'll get rid of them anytime soon. Although if I were to get another set of wheels, it'd be the OZ Scaras in 20"s or the Fikse FM10 if they came in 20:s.

Yes, the picture I posted is that of the FM10. It's actually the techni-polished finished (same thing as brushed). Satin finish is anodized. I prefer brushed but that's just me.

Oh and yes, I will post pics of my wheels if you likle...I'll just make a seperate thread...don't want to hi-jack this thread.

Hey Seize, I think DPE R05's you showed in another post look nicer than you above picks.

Your neighbor wouldn't happen to be SW would it? If so, he also had some really cool Supras.

They primarily do Porsche in this area I believe. They don't do 20" because that's not what is used for racing purposes....
Just my opinion..
