BlackMachOne 1 Report post Posted July 9, 2014 I like them too. A lot. They tempted me, but i'm pretty sure I have made my decision after talking with Steve at True Forged today... We are now discussing TF Sleepers. I like the bolts but my dad likes them better without the bolts and his opinion matters a lot to me. I wont be ordering until the air ride and mini-tub are done, so who knows, maybe i'll change my mind to the Retro's by then. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pakrat 1,043 Report post Posted July 9, 2014 Yeah that is the name. I couldnt remember right off. Here is a quick pic I found of one OK, that pic looks more like a magnum yeah, thanks. They don't show it painted up on their site that I could see, just polished. I didn't really see pricing on them either but I would guess they are more than the American Racing one.

buening 63 Report post Posted July 9, 2014 You guys cut it out, you are making me want to get new wheels! Personally I like the look of the rivets/bolts, but they are a royal PIA to keep clean and detail! Something to consider. Here are Fikse FM5 rims on a fellow 69stanger: More pics: http://www.1969stang.com/mustang/forum/showthread.php?t=2301 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

These wheels were my top pick for awhile but I cant have my car looking just like his car but with a red Mach 1 stripe. people would think its the same car. That set he has runs $3,600 plus shipping.

jeff69 10 Report post Posted July 29, 2014 SW's 69 was sold to Europe I believe, so don't sweat looking like his. My advice is do your home work on the wheel company's build times and what they tend to promise. Lots of stories on PT.com & Lat-g on some of these wheel company's taking months to deliver when the promised weeks. Theirs only three company's I know of that deliver on what the promise. Forgeline, Formula 43 & CCW wheels. If you like Fikse the Formula 43's have a similar look. DSE uses them exclusively now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I still think I am going with True Forged; Steve made me a deal I can't refuse on the Sleepers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
