i’m looking along the lines of Iforged, Fikse, CCW, and HRE… I’ve always liked Iforged Aeros, but alot of people have those, want something a little dif, unless the right deal pops up. Also like their Evolutions. Custom, and something else i forgot that look like CCW 505s. The problem i hear though, is that they have a HUGE lead time, and their CS is shitty Fikse FM/5, profil 5 and profil 10 are nice CCW 500 and 505 are cool, unfortunally they are both in the area, damn you bladez HRE 847s ? are also very nice problem is, if i do this, i need to do it NOW and get them ASAP, because otherwise i need to put rubber on my existing rims. but i refuse to get something if im not 100% sure about it i do not want a cheap looking, or knock off rim… im looking to buy the good stuff. guidelines: 5-spoke OR split 5-spoke (10 spoke) ~18x9.5 F, ~18x11 B **NO RIVETS** need som dat DISH…preferably not stepped, but open to stepped have not decided on the finish yet. dont have a rediculous amount of $$ to spend. Used rims are fine as long as they are in LIKE NEW condish any other ideas? READY…GO ---

+1 on Jay’s suggestion. I would definitely go for Fikse, but I’ve always had a hard-on for them. HREs are shitty bling wheels. ---

HRE are shit wheels, and with the power you make + buffalo roads, you’ll likely find out why. ---

Fikse have always been my top 2, depending on my mood. they are very clean, yet very subtle. i’m hearing very light as well, although since when have i cared about weight? lol buying those new is $$$$ though :nervous: ---

Any custom wheel you order is gonna take some time to get. I think I waited 6 weeks to get my aeros after I put in my order. ---

lol sorry bill ☹ how about the ccw sp600 (even though you want 5 spoke, they’re still pretty hot) or t10 wheels. i really like the looks of those wheels as well and i think they would look really good on your car! fiske are also a very good choice to go with as well. don’t think i’d ever go the hre or iforge route ---

[/quote] im hearing in the area of 3+ MONTHS from some vurrent customers. i realize they take time, i didn’t doubt that. between my not wanting to have to tire my existing rims only to get rid of them, and my EXTREME LACK OF PATIENCE with stuff i buy, and getting ANALLY RAPED in the performance market in the past, i think i’d have an aneurism (sp) if that happened to me shockwave: not ruling those out, but im unsure… thanks for the input ---

i really dont like the look of 6, or any even spoke rim on f-bods. thanks though and im just busting your balls. 505s are a sweet rim, i dont think they’d look as good on my car as they do yours ---

DPE isn’t doing it for me. forgeline has some nice rims, but the rivets are a big turnoff for me. thanks for the ideas though, keep em coming :tup: ---

I dont know why everyone is ripping on HRE’s, they make a quality wheel. They are one of the only manufacter’s that offer hidden hardware or no rivets in a 3 piece custom wheel. They are also one of the most expensive wheels you can buy. ---
