First off, I have not seen this project but the rendering if fricken SICK! I have had a hard on for 68-72 roadster Vette's for my entire life. Had a few original type cars, some big HP 427s, had a flared out Corvette summer car back in the day But what your doing here is way high on my bucket list.
Now about wheels. The 2 wheels you are comparing are not apples to apples comparisons. They are different wheels.
Two big differences:
The Fikse is a stepped lip and a hidden hardware wheels.
The True Forged is a fat lip with exposed hardware wheels.
If you decide on the Fikse, now is a great time to buy Fikse as we have them 20% off and Fikse says the build times are down to 6 weeks now.
I will throw a couple choices more in the mix. Forgeline makes your wheel in step lip and fat lip. And they offer the wheels with exposed hardware and hidden hardware.
And I have a RTTHs commemorative batch buy sale coming up, so you can save on them also.
We have wheeled up a couple of these car so we have the fitment nailed.

Here is the SO3, a STEP LIP version with exposed hardware and your Matte Black Centers

Here is a SO3 we had built with Hidden Hardware

And here is a SO3P FAT LIP version with exposed hardware.
