Is America's Tire Co. trying to rip me off on Fikse FM5?

I was going to buy the FM5's in 18" and thought they cost somewhere around $750-$800. When I asked for price they told me $950 per wheel. I know ATC charges more for wheels then people on this forum finds them, but that's $800 more than I thought I was going to spend

Can someone post up how much and where they got there Fikse?

I paid $1600 for my set of 17" FM/5s used. $950 per wheel sounds like full retail list and that's what they go for.

Yeah, $950 each is list price. Try buying direct from Fikse. They give you a 10% discount, especially if you're getting tires too. Good luck. www.fikse.com

Saw that posting Manny. My rears are identical, however, I have 17x8.5s up front and paid less for my set to boot.
