Edgeracing now has the fit up for selection in their awesome prices and everything. I wish I had waited for them because they got my wheels/tires for like 300bucks less than what i paid!! check em out at www.edgeracing.com

Correct. This is per wheel... Same specs of Rota aswell... I'm assuming these are even the same company making them for Rota, but they are just selling them cheaper... I'm interested in getting them maybe...

did some surfing around to check out Flik and Edge Racing. You might want to do the same...
I don't want to validate those OTHER forums and we all know about the web's ability to create new and alternate 'truths' but it did get me thinking and back looking at Rota and the Tire Rack.

Did the google search. Found a few forums with threads stating they liked their Flik wheels. Only found 1 thread where the guy hated the wheels because it weighed more than the stated weight on the edgeracing website and that thread was posted back in 2001. I don't own any Flik wheels. Just wanted to state what I found. Was also thinking of getting some for my Fit.

I just saw some items where people said that the finish wore off quickly and looked terrible, that they were made by another manufacturer, or that they took a longer time to ship than quoted. The weight thing scared me but I didn't notice the date. It is so frustrating not knowing about the vndors and products. Those Flik wheels look great and the 12# weight looks pretty good.

SSW Trex Look pretty tight in a 16x7 +40 and @ $103 you can't hardly beat that.
Flik Blasts weight only 11.9 lbs in a 15" wheel..not to bad.

Ok, the more I look the more I see nice things about edge racing!
the 15" Flik Fuel in bronze is on sale, I may be one of those guys who buys the wheels before the car is delivered!
