Back to the future/Fikse FM/5 wheels
After nearly 3 and 1/2 weeks, the UPS man dropped the Fikse wheels on my front step. I nearly tripped getting to the door to open them. I am saved, I thought, Christmas is going to be extra nice !! Some of you may remember I was trying to buy two front ZR-1 offset 9.5 inch Fikse FM/5 wheels. The holy grail of C-4 wheels in my opinion. A very nice member agreed to sell me two but unfortunately when I opened the box I had two very nice 11 inch Fikses. Soooooo, does anyone have two front ZR-1 offset 9.5 inch Fikses to sell ? Please PM me if you do. and Merry Christmas to all.

Demps, they are for sale. I paid $1000 for them and that is my price.

Sgreg,
Did someone intentionally misrepresent what you were purchasing? |

Re: Back to the future/Fikse FM/5 wheels
They're nice looking wheels. I thought that the front offset was the same as a regular C4 though? Not ZR-1 specific.

Re: Back to the future/Fikse FM/5 wheels
You sure they aren't 10" wheels and you are including the bead in the measurements? If the absolute width of the wheel is 11", it is probably a 17x10" wheel.
17x10's would work just fine on the front and may give you a little extra brake clearance (though with the random way Fikse seems to offset the spokes, who the hell knows).
