d00d...

I am trying to decide between buying C20's or 2 sets of Flik Artics (18x8.5 fitmets). How do you like the C20's, I wanna buy another set of HRE's but even at the deal I am getting I can get 2 sets of fliks + tires for less then just the C20's.

c20's aren't out yet ...

but you can be sure they will be good.

are those flik arctic's forged? are there custom fitments available? what's your intended use?

I know.....

I thought maybe you got the hook up some how. Since you seen to be a frequent flyer. Yes they are forged.... they have the fitments I want 18x8.5 ET35 available but I dont thing they really offer anything custom. I plan on using one set for the track and one for days when the 545R + Rain will not be a pretty as well as when I dont want to ruin the HRE's for one reason or another. Peter & HRE were gonna hook me up with some C20's because of the issues I have had with my 545R's but I cant decide cuase its still more expensive then 2 sets of the Artics. They seem like they get pretty good reviews,
