Fiske fm5's are on!!!!!!!

my older brother just picked up 17X9.5 & 17X11 inch FM5's powder coated black. the back tires are 335/35/17 They are nasty!! They are 1 1/2" wider than the 315 nittos that he had on the 17X11 ZR1's. My hat is off to you older bro. Those wheels are sick!!

Re: Fiske fm5's are on!!!!!!!

IMO, FM/5s are the best looking wheel ever made (well, no other wheel looks better on an F-body).

I'd probably agree with you Nate...but on the right car, black wheels look damn good. There was a nice black '98-'02 SS with black FM/5s (silver lip/rim) in GMHTP a few issues ago...looked perfect IMO.

Re: Fiske fm5's are on!!!!!!!

$4100 just for the wheels

i feel bad for people that end up paying full price (bout $5k+)

Re: Fiske fm5's are on!!!!!!!

Well this is my car that SnakeatinZ is talking about. I can't wait to get some pics of. The 335s have been doing perfectly with absolutely no rubbing or scraping.
Pics should be up this evening with a pretty Texas Lake backdrop.
