I sold my MCS and am now selling my wheel and tire set. These are semi-custom Fikse Profil 13 Forged Aluminum wheels with Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. The wheels are 17" and extremely light. They are Race Black (described by Fikse as: For that aggressive, performance driven look, our Race Black finish features a dramatic, deep, black anodized finish on the center and a mirror polished rim.). I would characterize the condition of the wheels as a 9 of 10. The tires are Michelin Pilot Super Sport 215/45ZR17 with under 5,500 miles on them. The wheels are perfectly balanced, have never been puncture or damaged and already have the TPMS in them. The wheels are 17 x 8, +32 mm offset, and weigh 18 lbs. The wheels will clear all of the big brake kits. According to Fikse: Fikse?s Profil wheel line represents the leading edge of wheel design and technology. The Profil (?pro-feel?) line is our highest performing consumer wheel, to date. They offer improved acceleration, handling, braking, and fuel efficiency for your sports car. The Profil line was developed using a Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of each and every design in the series. This allowed us to finely tune the wheel shapes and reduce unnecessary weight; as lower weight is a key factor for improving wheel performance. Profil wheels are forged from 6061-T6 aluminum alloy; this aircraft-grade aluminum is heat treated for a higher yield strength than your typical aluminum wheel. This allows us to create stronger, more stable wheels, while maintaining a low weight. We developed a new manufacturing technique specifically for the Profil line. The wheel centers are sculpted using a new profile that uses less mass. Along with our new manufacturing process this design enhances the structural rigidity of the center. *** PRICE REDUCED *** I am asking $1800 shipped to your door for the wheel and tire set which ran over $5,000.
