We couldn't show up with a race car unless we had race car wheels!!! More than likely we figured most of the other Challengers at SEMA would be going for the plus-sizing look by adding 22" and even 24" wheels and tires. We didn't want that "look" for the Sam Posey G5 Challenger and we were very passionate about executing a common theme on this car - RACING.
Fikse was or first choice for wheels on the Posey car due to the fact that they are artfully designed, precision engineered, and made in the USA since 1992.
Designing and building championship-winning race wheels is the core of everything they do at Fikse USA. They approach wheel fitment as a tailor does a handmade suit--with careful deliberation and lots of measurements. This is what impressed us so much last year, Group 5 Limited was sponsored by Fikse with a set of wheels on the Pantera GT5 SEMA show car. The wheels looked amazing and fit the first time. Not only did they take the time to help us with measuring for wheel fitment but also assisted in selecting the proper tire for the staggered front and rear fitment. This was what we wanted when it came time to select a wheel for the Sam Posey G5 Challenger - race proven performance and a perfect custom tailored fit.
If you haven't had a chance to visit their site or see the fine wheels that Fikse manufactures, please take a moment to visit their site.
