I am at the realization I want to get rims for this car right away (i.e. save up and get some instead of pissing away money on smaller piddily stuff). Rims make or break any ride. I am confident both the 17" Fikse and 18" Iforged would look good. But the question is which one is better for my car? If I had a black ride I would say Iforged with out a doubt. But the red and black of my SS makes it hard to determine. Below is a link to my ride followed by a couple of pics of Fikse and Iforged rims on different cars.

Which do you recommend?

My SS

Pretty much what my car would look like with Fikses the way I want em.

Now I know his car is overall amazing and is my favorite f-body. But I really wonder what the rims would look like on my car.

its a tough one to tell you the truth...personally i'd probably go with the FM5s, im VERY surprised at how nice they look on the LT1 camaro...i didn't think it'd flow with the front end but damn...impressed to say the least

as for the iforged, maybe get someone to do a photoshop of it to get a feel for it...i'd still probably go with the fikse though because well...they're fikse lol

 

Another vote for the FM5s here.

 

What do the Fikse's cost? They'd get my vote.

I'm thinking of them for my SS!

 

I vote Iforged. You wont go wrong with the Fm5s either but the Iforged just caught my eye the most

 

I don't think you could go wrong with either one, but I'm sort of liking the IForged wheels on this one .

Damn! 3 for fikse, 2 for Iforged!

I know either would look fine...I just want to get this right.

I already have 2 18" michelin pilot sports, so that's a check in the ifroged box, and I like the idea of 18's on the car...but damn!....those pics of the fikse's look amazing!

Anybody else care to weigh in?

FM5s get my vote, one of my favorite wheels. Simple design but they look great. For who asked, IIRC the Fikses normall run close to $1k per wheel.

Iforged 18 all the way

 

18" Fm5s

 

My car looks the same and I recommend (and got) the Fm5s. You can also get them with black centers to match the roof which looks cool.

That brings up an interesting point....anyone have pics of a camaro with 18" FM5's?

Jesus,
For me it was simple...I saw those Iforged wheels, and ordered them, its that simple and they are THAT bad ***! and, they are LIGHT!

my vote for the FM5s. I'm actually looking at getting a set of black 18s for my black 02 Z. It just has that timeless look, that i love.
