Are These Real 5Zigen wheels (FN01R-c)? what do you guys think?? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

eBay Motors: 5-ZiGEN JDM FN01R-c 17x7.0, 9.0 Mr2, Rx-7 Staggered (item 200295907408 end time Jan-13-09 10:00:00 PST)

Dont all 5zigens com with a sticker on them that either says the company name, or model? in this case FN01R-c.

I dont want to ripped off.

Who cares?

You shouldn't even be looking at those wheels regardless if they are real or not. +42 offset? Come on man...

Your wheels will be so sunk, what would be the point? lol.

EDIT: Oh, and there are threads on this forum all about that kind of stuff. =/

blackrms13 · 01-07-2009, 01:23 AM

i dont think they offer that finish from the factory
so its probably repainted, thus not having the sticker/logo
but does look like a FN to me

and yes use the identify this thread

If your 4 lug then I may have what your lookin for PM me if your interested. Thanks!

As for your question. Seems difficult to say without the cast markings, caps and other things. It's a good possibilty that its a replica.

well its better than +43 and i allready have spacers.

90S13dude · 01-07-2009, 11:48 AM

I dont think 5zigen offers them in a universal fitment either, or atleast mine didn't come that way.

Better plan would be get a different set of rims with better fitment. Save your money, do it right the first time...save you from doing it a second time.

lflkajfj12123 · 01-07-2009, 11:47 PM

who the fuck would knock off 5zigen

That's what I meant to say. Don't buy shitty offset wheels and try to fix them with spacers.

redsx13 · 01-08-2009, 02:44 AM

after some further research, a good look at the wheel fitment whore thread, and some helpful advice (thankyou zilvia), i have finally got it into my head that these are shitty offsets and not worth the time or money. guess i will keep looking

ayuaddict · 01-08-2009, 02:53 AM

good for you.

you're more intelligent than half the people here, many of which who are wayyy older than you might i add.

urmyhero4now · 01-08-2009, 04:18 AM

damn. yeah, i honestly wish more people were not so hard headed in sticking to some bullshit sizes. This site has been around for years with loads of useful information. In all honesty no one should be asking any more fuckin questions. Just search.

redsx13 · 01-08-2009, 12:45 PM

ha, ha, now i know why 5-lug swaps are so popular. all you really find in 4-lug are those dam honda rims.

and i do agree, i dont want to see another "will these rims fit on my car?" post again!

irax · 01-09-2009, 04:30 AM

LMAO! I already answered your question in the other thread. They are not knock of FN's they just are not in the original colorways or color pattern or color scheme. BUT YES THEY ARE FUCKING FN's
