I am looking for a wheel that is very similar to the 5zigen FN-01R but will fit a 4 lug s13. the problem is is that I want it to be at least 7.5" wide. it can be 16" or 17", and I would perfer not geting a new one because of the price. FN-01R price is just fine.

I have searched everywhere possible and the only ones that work are volks and I don't have a deep enough pockets to afford those at any point soon while I still work on my engine. so thanks for your ediot remark and leave the answering of the questions to people who are willing to genuinly help.

those aren't that expensive for wheels, if you don't want to buy new, lurk the classified forum until something comes up, but don't hold your breath.

but yeah, wide +size 4 lugs are hard to find. deal with it or join the 5 lug club ;)

Oh, and if you have searched a lot and can't find anything that fits your discription and your wallet, that tells you something doesn't it?

Personally, i shelled out for a 5 lug swap and am saving up money for a set of FN-01R Cs, i've been waiting about a year and counting. (got my 5 lug swap this time last year)

its either time or money, your pick.

thanks for good advice. did you go z32 or s14 se five lug. I've heard all it takes for the s14 is to change the front hubs and the hubs and ball joints for the rear. is tis true? looks like time whens out every time doesn't it.

i went se 5 lug, and yeah, not hard at all. Be careful when buying parts tho, i got mine from a junk yard, the wheel bearing that came with the front hubs were really rusty and in bad shape, i've had to replace one already with a new one from the dealership (ouch, expensive!)

I have an S14, so all I got was the hubs (wheel bearings in them already) new from my boy who gets me stuff from the dealer, less than 200.00 for all four... They sit in the corner of my room now awaiting my return to Jose to get Z brakes for dirt cheap and Z32 TT rear wheels16 x8.5 all around, hopefully, my money and overtime will allow this to take place before mid-april.

you need front hubs and spindles from the S14 5 lug (SE) cars. Ten you will need to replace the FRONT ball joint with an S14 one. For the rear, you can use S14 SE OR N/A Z32 HUBS (nothing else required).
