The wheels pictured in the OP.....$1600 / set shipped to your door = $400 each.

I believe the Fikses are more.

Then I guess Fbody Warehouse is making a killing on them whenever they happen to sell a set.

He does include shipping but his prices are way high. YO has then at 899 for 4 with caps and lugs. Plus shipping. So my guess is $1000

If you can get me fikses for $1600 a set I'll take them

Maybe in another 5 years Ronal will feel frisky and do a run of 10 sets again ...

Formula 43 RAD14s - 18” starting at $895.00 each. Gotta pay to play!

A few companies have them listed for pre-sale on the websites, $299 each plus shipping. Kind of a rip, when I bought them ~6 years ago I paid $200 each shipped, but I guess it is nice to have them offered again. Plus one of mine is all scratched up from when I blew out a tire, I wish i had bought 5 at the time instead of just 4 :|

Supposedly shipping date was yesterday

Based on the Summit Racing P/N I am guessing they are made by OER

greenformula92 10-02-2012 09:09 PM

So they are charging more for a fake....sounds like the typical rip off. they will sell though

More than what? Can you buy a new one otherwise?

V 10-02-2012 11:39 PM

well fake is a harsh term... its says its a replica, replicas can be fine...

The point is... people like the ronals for the styling right?
ok, so they matched the style with a new brand/model of wheel.
there are replica cobra kit cars, yet i don't hear them referred to much as fakes.

When Ronal made another production run a few years ago they were 200.00 a wheel. the replica is 299.99 per wheel

And prices haven't changed for anything since the 50's :lol: Add a little supply and demand to the mix, congrats. You have reached your market value.

Prices shouldnt go up $125 in 6 years for cast wheels IMO.

1320B4U 10-03-2012 03:02 PM

If they found the need to reproduce these wheels due to demand you bet they will charge a premium.....unfortunately.
