Fikse Profil 5S black race wheels and Michelin Pilot cup tires
I have a nice set of Fikse Profil 5S black race wheels and Michelin Pilot Cup tires for sale.
They will fit GT2, GT3, Turbo and C4S
maybe even narrow bodies if you swap out the tires
for smaller sizes.
$3000 for the set with tires.
Tires are Michelin Pilot Cups Sports
265/35ZR18
315/30ZR18
Wheels are in Northern NJ and pick up would be preferred and easier.

the car they were slated for got sold before I could come up with the money.
I can send pictures and specs to who ever is interested.

fronts are 18x9.5's with a 6.75 backspace (offset 41mm)
rears are 18x12's with a 8.75 backspace (offset 60mm)
if you run narrower tires like a
245 or 255 front
295 rears
it can work with a narrow body.
best way to verify is to either bring your car by and physically try them out
or measure the backspacing on your current wheels and note how much extra
clearance you have behind to spare.

your original post said the fronts were 9" not 9.5", which is it and are you sure about the backspacing numbers..your offset numbers make sense but not with those wheel widths and backspacing

I just went and physically measured them.
This is how I got the math.
front overall width 10.25"
rear overall width 12.75"
mind you rims will measure about an inch bigger than the designated size
took the measured backspacing of each
and subtracted that number from the (overall width/2)
so:
(width/2) - backspace = X
convert X from inches to mm
BTW Fikse was no help....called twice and twice, they never called me back.

talk about a non-agressive offset.

They were from a GT3
but anyhow
it's late I will recheck my measurements in the morning
but either way the tires on there now sit perfectly and everything
looks correct.
they are definately originally speced for a wide body.
but can possibly fit a narrow body if the tires were
switched out for narrower ones.
Anyone local and seriously interested is more than welcome
to come by and mount them up.

That's cool you can fit a 265 under the fronts. What kind of camber are you running? No rubbing with that much rubber under full compression?
How old are the rear tires? I thought Michelin stopped making the Cups in a 315 in 18's?
