FS 18" Fikse Profil 10 Wheels

I am selling my set of track wheels and tires. They are as follows: Fikse Profil 10, race black centers, polished lips.

Front
9 1/2" x 18", 51mm offset

Pilot Sport Cups 265/35 ZR 18


Rear
12" x 18", 57mm offset

Pilot Sport Cups 315/30 ZR 18


Here are some photos.















They are in extremely good condition. Both sets of tires have well over half their life left. The mounted set have only 8 heat cycles. I'm looking for about $5k but make me an offer.

What is the impact of using 265's up front? Will they fit without modifications?

The 265's up front really help in 2 major areas. 1: Our cars suffer from inherent understeer and the bigger rubber up front really makes it much easier to balance the car towards neutral and throttle steering. 2: When you really push our cars, especially tuned versions, it is extremely easy to over-heat the front tires. The bigger rubber means it can take the beating for much longer than stock rubber up front.

Regarding fit, you have to roll the fenders. That is all I had to do upfront. In the rear I had to roll the fenders and heat/mold the fender well liners. And my car is slammed.

IMO this is the ultimate track set up and I can't understand why more people don't run 265s on the front. Good luck with the sale

Yes, they are factory. The flash makes it look purplish but they're anodized black.

Its not the flash, thats the downside on anadozied black, they turn purple and will appear that way even in daylight.

Justin: In daylight, especially strong sun, they will have a very slight tinge of purple, but it's still really black. The picture is not representative. I'll post a more accurate shot without the flash. Look at the other shots, they all look fine.
