Fiske Wheels *Poll*

Should I get a set of Fiske FM5s for my car? I found a set for 2k with tires and while that price is a little high for me I do really like those wheels. Here's a pic of the Fiske wheels http://community.webshots.com/photo/...37123956GvtwXH What does everyone think?

Those are the one wheels I hate more than any, and it's Fikse Keep your 2 grand and drop a cam in your car. That'd be alot better, since you already have wheels. If you GOTTA get new wheels, go with some Makaveli Ermosa's or Maselini's or some HRE 547's or maybe some CCW 505A's, but not those.

I'm sure he's talking about install and all the associated mods (push rods, valve springs, etc...) as well.

your right, $550 for install here, plus rods and springs, then tuning, which is $350 + $150/hour on the dyno, plus the cam itself, which is another $300.
