I put Fikse rims on my '65 Coronet because they were light and strong. Not sure it really matters much since my car is a garage lizard, but the Fiske rims do look really cool sitting out there in the garage! and pricey!!! I don't remember exactly what they cost but it was pushing $1000 per wheel. I think my Fikse rims are 20 years old now and they probably have less than 500 miles on them. Not much return on that investment!

Mopar to the bone!!!
