I think Ive seen this car here but cant remember where.I think the owners name is Phil and the style is the Profil 10.Sound familiar?

Jeff,

It's Phil and he has a 1994.

Here is his screen name.

Thats the one.The thing I dont like about the Fikse wheels is the center protrudes past the drop center of the wheel hoop.Ive talked to the Fikse rep and Phil has the correct offset with the least amount of dish on the back wheel that these wheels can have on a ZR-1.If I can push the center to where its almost flush with the drop center that might work for me.Im thinking about the Profil 10 with a complete brushed finish.Hell...................I dont know what I want.

Jeff,

That is his old set... He has a new set of FM10's that are 18' front and 19' rear.

345 30 19's in the rear.

Yes I have wheel envy!!!!

I share your view on not liking protruding centers. To correct this I specified 1/2" deeper outer wheel shells. Here are the ordering specs I used:

Profil 10 centers with clear coated Technipolish finish.
Fronts - 18" x 10" with 57mm offset, 1.5" mirror polished outer wheel shells, 8.5" standard finish inner wheel shells.
Rears - 19" x 12" with 38mm offset, 2.5" mirrow polished outer wheel shells, 9.5" standard finnish inner wheel shells.

Beautifull car, Phil.

Phil,the second set is what Im looking for but with a brushed or anodized barrel.Dan also told me it might be possible to have the small divots deleted from the wheel.Heres the deal,in order to have both front and rear wheels with a matching face depth in the barrel I will have to use my 16MM spacers but at this point Im still in the lets see what will fit stage.Id like to get a set of 18-10,18-12s but just now doing some digging.Id like to sell these GS wheels but Im not going to give them away so storage it is.

These are a different style of Fikse's, 18's 10F & 12R.
