Default FS - Fikse FM10 wheels, 17 x 8 & 10

Looking to raise some cash for Stage II cylinder head.
Fikse FM10 wheels for sale. Wheels are straight with no curb marks.
17x8 w/ 43 mm offset (225/45R17 Kumho MX tires included, 60 % thread)
17x10 w/ 55 mm offset (rear tires are junk)
Asking $1400

Was told by the previous owner that these wheels are orignially made for 944 turbo cup car. I couldn't get it to fit in my '89 951 with stock camber setting. You will likely need 2 or more degrees of negative camber to fit inside fender. Buyer is responsible for fitment.

Are those painted centers or did they come from Fikse that way?

Beautiful wheels. I hope some one claims them. I've never seen such a wide lip in a late offset wheel. On an 86 951 spacers would make fitment a snap.

Centers were painted by the previous owner. Carbon Black.

do they stick out too far in the front as well as the back?... is one pair closer to fitting than the other?

Sticks out further in the front than rear. I'll try to get some picts installed on vehicle and post this weekend.

They fit perfectly, in my opinion (I have the same wheels on my 951). I had to run some 7 mm spacers up front to clear the wheel bearing hub cover, but they fill up the wheel wells perfectly and they don't rub on a stock height car.

These should fit fine on an 86 951 right...?

On an 86 they will probably still need spacers to fit perfectly.

Sorry, I should have mentioned that mine are on a '87 (late offset car).

More picts per request.
Rear fits just fine w/ 1.2 degree negative camber.
Front as you can see sticks out w/ 0.8 degree negative camber. 2.5 degrees should tuck it in just right.
