Default Fikse FM5 Wheel Question

Are these wheels best for the street, track or suitable for both. Fair price?

I would jump on these in a heartbeat if they were not black, I just don't think black wheels look right on a black car. The FM5's were exactly what i was looking and couldn't find, so i ended up with a set of 19" Roderick RW5's.

I have a set of Fikse FM10's on my 928 and they are awesome, but were north of $4000. I would say $2200 for these is not unreasonable provided they are in nice condition. Looking at the lower picture I can't tell whether the wheel is wet or the finish is chipped, you may want to ask.

Wheels are perfect; that was water in the picture. They have a purple cast to them so not really black; more dependent on the light.
