If I remember my quote from Fikse last year for 18s, you are looking at around 1100-1200+ per wheel.

I can get you into a 3 piece wheel for less money.

Thanx Chris ,Frank and others for your help. Im realy liking the satin/brushed style finish on these things. $1100 or $1200 bux a rim is a bit over the top when im on a Aussie exchange rate. Im procrastinatin' on my wheel choice , i thought i had it sorted then i see these things :willy:
P.S Is it possible to get that brushed look done on other wheels if already polished ?

Yes, I have had this done twice. Polished wheels can be brushed with a scotch-brite pad..

Really is it that easy ?
Does is still retain a lustre and can you then polish it up with an alloy wheel polish ?
Any pics?

Hi Gav,
I have a set of these wheels on my camaro here in Australia. I have ordered a set of Rushforth wheels which are on water and i would look at selling my Fikse. I priced them about 6 months ago and they were about $950us direct from Fikse. Mine are 17x8 and 17x9.5. They are in perfect condition. I was going to set them up with street slicks for the drags but i might get something a little less expensive to use and move these on. If you are keen PM me on here or usmuscle.
cheers
Adam
