Default Fikse FM5 Wheels, Black Center, Polished Rim, 17" Goodyear Eagle F1-GSD3, 275, 315

These are absolutely like new. They were gently used for 450 miles and have never seen rain, compound or harsh chemicals. Only a little wax. They were even mounted on brand new GM hubs. The front tires were manufactured in 2011 and the rears in 2012. They were mounted on a showroom new 1993 C4 with only 29k original miles. They are white glove clean and do not stick out from the fenders.

These are Fikse FM5 wheels and is a complete, like new set. They were roadforce balanced with stick on weights. The tires have never been spun during acceleration or around a corner. The tires are basically full tread depth. Even the little vent spikes are present near the surface of the tire as it rounds from the edge. The tires or wheels have no stains, scratches or curb rash.

The fronts are 17" x 10" with a 56mm offset with 275/40/17 Goodyear Eagle F1-GSD3 tires. The rears are 17" X 11" with a 50mm offset with 315/35/17 Goodyear Eagle F1-GSD3 tires. This is the rear C4 GS offset and will fit a stock C4 from 1988 through 1996.

The suspension geometry was all stock. The rear rotors and calipers were stock. According to Fikse the front wheels are one-off custom units to clear the C5 Z06 rotors and caliper. The stock Fikse wheels for the C4 do not normally clear thses brakes so they made these special for this application.

The wheels were $3200 shipped from Fikse and the tires were $1565 from Tirerack. I think you can get these tires new from Tirerack for about $1350 right now, but the datecodes are still from 2012 when I called them last week. I have the original receipts for both the wheels and tires.

I am asking $3500 for the wheels and tires plus shipping. This is about $1000 off from what you would spend for new ones and these are just like new. I will seperate and sell the wheels for $2600 and the tires for $1000.

All prices are OBO plus shipping. Please PM or call me at 865-384-6318. I am located in Knoxville, TN, 37938.

I had a typo in the original post. The rears are GS offset. They are 50mm offsets and will fit stock later years C4s.
