This release and its companions
Choosing one for your collection
Ask for a clear side view of each wheel. Check the bright wheel finish for wear, and inspect the white side accents where handling can rub away the thin edges.
The reference shows one side. Ask for the other side and the underside when condition, base details or wheel originality matter.
Collector questions
How is FTE different from FTE2 here?
The FTE reference has a rounder open five-spoke face. The FTE2 companion uses a more angular pattern, while the red body and white accents remain similar.
