Possible to remove the leaves from the tires and retake the photos?

They look great man. How does the acceleration factor feel? Noticeable difference?

Thanks

As to two valve stems. I have a read a couple reasons, whether these are the real reasons< I am not sure. They are sometimes put on racing wheels and some higher end wheels so the tire pressure can be checked by one stem and air adjusted in the other quickly at track side. Another reason I read was to purge air out one side while flushing and filling the tires with Nitrogen.

Wheels look great on your FX! Definitely worth the wait.

 

[Tko512iFX]

Both sound like valid reasons for 2 stems IMO

wow, that's pretty damn good... very light... you must feel a difference in acceleration... very nice wheels man

these would be awesome track wheels with a lighter weight tire... how much were they again?

Tire rack has the same size as I got (they didn't when I ordered mine). Their price for the rim only is $512 US each, I bought mine in Canada at a shop closer to me and my package deal worked out to be about the same as I could get at tire rack.

Slightly off thread question-Anyone have experience with lighter weight performance tires and do you have any particular brands/models you would suggest for the FX - ride quality + low weight (low thirties) in a 20" tire.

Great post - I'm going with 20x8.5 ET40mm as well now. Not too aggressive - Just right.

I still love my Enkeis.
I added a set of 15mm Ichiba V2 spacers this year to the rear wheels on my 09FX and it is perfect, nice and flush.

That's what I'm getting! I think!
20X9.5/38 for my iridium blue FX37. will it be flush?

That should look very nice and they should be close to flush in the 9.5" wide wheel.

Thanks Rip, I just got back tonight, we were in the Mayan Riviera for the last month. Now I have to face the white snow again instead of white sand.

Wow nice, how was it? Did you have a good time?

Fantastic, I'll post on another thread about it, once I get settled back in.
