Default Fikse FM10

I think I've pretty much decided on FM10 rims, grey painted center, Techni polish on the lip. So, I was wondering who has them on a dark grey, black, or stone grey so that I can just get a good visual.
Also, what size did everyone who has them get, as I think I'm going to do 17 x8.5 F and 17 x 10 R ( might do 8F and 9.5R since it's the street but undecided right now) TIA for the photos. If you have high resolution ones, send me an email.

Bret,

I had 8,9's Fm10's and they were great. Mine were all black on a Pearl car. Let me know and I can send some pics.

I have a set not installed yet, I can send you an email Monday. If you would, and so I will not forget, please send me an email to drzobrist@cableone.net. I have a very high resolution camera at the office, and I am not computer literate enough to downsize enough to post. Also, I have a charcoal grey car, would you like a pick of the wheel next to the car, positioned appropriately?

I will email back an attachment.

BTW thanks for sending the koklen piece to try out but ended up getting SFR MAF, also yet to be installed. Terry has the piece.

Thanks
Steve

Here's a pic of Sayporsha's car with FM10s. Nice wheels, but not terribly fun to clean...

i realize that i have kinesis and you're asking about fm10's, but the y spoke pattern of my k28's is similar to that of the fikse fm10 and the centers of my wheels are grey to give you an idea of the grey y spoke wheels on a stone grey car.

We have the K27 on the track car, nice wheels. K28's are 18" I think.

We used to run the FM10 on our Grand-Am BMWs. They were nice wheels, but too expensive at the rate we went through them.

I know this is not the color combo you were looking for, but the FM10's are awesome wheels. Here is my car with 17's.

George, I take it that finish is the full polish? I'm undecided after revisiting the finish section of Fikse, of the Speed Silver or the Techni Polish. Thanks for the photo.
