Where can i get fikse wheels?
 
Looking at getting some new wheels for my 67 nova,
Bouncing back and forth between forgeline and fikse wheels. I really like the fikse 5S wheel. Who sells them and whats the price range for a set of 17x7 in the front and 17x8s for the back?

I have not had personal experience with Fikse but I have read others have issues getting their wheels in the past.

A good alternative is Formula 43: http://www.formula43.com/

I have seen those, but i didnt think they offered 17x7 , on there site, the smallest size they show is a 18x8.
7" wide is as wide as i can go in the front

Have you considered the Forgeline DS3? MSRP for 17x7 and 17x8 is $1150. Currently running about 4 weeks for 3pc wheels. See: http://www.forgeline.com/products/pe...-18-19-20.html

I have the Fiske 5S and have no issues with them. Although, I bought them in 2006. The shop where my 67 Camaro is located now, there has been several people that wanted to buy my rims. Fikse closed in 2009, but came back again. I think the people that had issues were buying them on group purchase. I seen some recent posts that people haven't had issues with Fikse. You can also buy them direct.

Agreed.

I believe a while ago they were really struggling with turn around, but have seen a few within the last year that have gotten theirs within 6-8 weeks I believe, which I know is longer than some other wheel companies... but Fikse are pretty sweet, and worth the wait to me.
