Fikse makes wheels for cars racing in the 24 hour race at Daytona and also for the LeMans series. No LEDs, no spinners and no bling...sorry. But if you are looking for a wheel that is strong, light, has proper fitment, good looks and a serious racing pedigree, you can't do better than Fikse.

BBS Racing wheels are pretty cool, if you're into that "race car cool thing" versus that "pimp my ride cool thing".

Best wheels for what? Looks, ride, track, weight, strength...uh we need to know what you want to do. BBS and OZ are probably some of the best all around.

I'll show you the weights and stuff but you'd be suprised! Even the non-5 spokers are super light.. We did a 997C4S with a set of these in the raceblack finish:

Or the 5s are another one the club racers use:
