Fikse's are some of my favorite wheels, but because of the non forged lips I was very weary of them vs. a fully forged BBS wheel.. just a note that people should be aware of is when a company says "forged wheels" and its a 2-piece wheel, you should ask which pieces are forged.. most times its the center that are forged and the lips are cast.. which for road wheels isn't great because the lips needs the strength. (its a different story for race cars tho). I heard that fikse recently changed the design of a few of its classic wheels and they may be fully forged now, i'm unsure.. but just a note to always ask about the build of the different parts when you buy a 2/3-piece wheel
