Look good to me. I like the little flute cuts at the end of the spokes at the rim. I would paint the inside of the rims black to highlight the spokes. Nice brushed no nonsense finish.

Are these going to be track wheels? I have a set of Fikse FM5 wheels that are toast because of harsh pad compound. I like polished wheels, but I will never again have them I'm going to stick with painted wheels- much easier to maintain. However, I hear there is a new wheel polishing ball you can buy...
But they do look sweet.
Mark, are those FM-10 wheels? I had those on my RX7 and sold them after I had to polish them once.

They are, indeed, FM-10's, in the race satin (anodized finish).The race satin is super-easy to keep clean. I use a pressure washer to clean them off if I'm in a hurry, and a bristle brush and Simple Green if I have time. The rims, though, are simply polished and get a bit dull after the Hawk Blue dust lingers on them. A quick polishing shines it up very well.

Like the design but do not like spokes that dish out. Prefer deep dish or flush spoke designs.
