Any of you with GT2s, you HAVE to switch to lighter wheels. It honestly makes the car feel 100% different. It's as if the suspension has completely woken up.

Who did you buy the Fikse wheels through? How was pricing? You can PM me if you rather talk about it there. Thanks

Is your 2 Euro spec?

it is a US spec car.

I bought the wheels third hand from Fred (thusly). They were originally ordered by Jack(LA) so he's the person to ask that question.

yup. i much prefer it to the bumperettes. someone scratched the original rear bumper in a parking lot so we figured we may as well just make the switch.

i think the car is pretty much done. now i just have to drive the hell out of it. the wheels are probably the best thing we have done to date. they're not the best looking wheels in the world but the unsprung weight difference is amazingly noticable in every facet of driving...even on the street.
