First off are the pro's a new brand for 5zigen, and secondly how do you think 17x7+35 in front and 17x8+20 would look on a fastback? Thanks for your help.

First, I dunno.

Second, like you still think with a FWD mind. aka like shit.

[punxva]

umm no they arent that new and those offsets fail, get the +20 upfront and +12 if you must have these wheels, but not that god awful +35

Go wider .

17x7?!??!?!

omfg did you really ask that?
is this for winter time and snow tires?
are you trying to run some super efficient high-mpg prius like setup with 185 wide tires hyper inflated to save the environment?


fawk.
run some 17x8 and 17x9 at least for a daily driving bomber.
you can fit 17x9 and 17x10 if you wanted to.
do the car a favor and go wide :)

fno1rc hot version

17x7 up front 17x8 is too small fo sho

I run 18x9.5 +35 rear and 18x8.5 +15 front te-37's and they fit perfect on an s13, the fender needed to be rolled to fit any tire over 245. A 15mm spacer in the rear works(effectively making +20 offset), but looks awkward and required too much neg camber

Figure out how you want to run, alot of camber or not, ride height etc and then tailor the wheels to that, but def go 17x8 minimum up front and larger in the rear.

[trsilvias13]

go wider, at least 8/9 combo.

I have a 7.5 in wheel for drag slicks and it has a -10 offset and I would still like more negative offset.

What's the difference between the Hot Version FN01R-C and the old ones ?

There's a lot of difference in price but whats about the weight, design, quality ?

Somebody of you have informations regarding this case ?

[racepar1]

Go 17x9 +20 all around! DOOOOOO IT! Stagger is lame! Especially the stagger you are talking about, I mean 7" wheels!!! WTF is that?

[95Blue240sx]

just get fno1R if you want to be ballinnnnnn. Its forged as opposed to fno1rc which is cast. Forged has more lip for you lip whores.

Anyone have pics of the Fno1R and/or pro on a car? I am just curious to see how they look.

S13 chassis fitment is

17x9 +15
215/40/17

17x10 +12
225/45/17


roll fenders, lower w/ coilovers til tucking tread up front and tucking like 2" tire rear, camber til clearance is like credit card thick

[Dream240]

Heh my first 240 rims were 18x7 +40.... fuckin 8 years ago.

Yeah major fail....ah the good old noob days.

That's if you like ugly stretch. 17x9 +20 with 255/40/17 look good on all 4. You just need to roll/pull the fenders. I have this set-up with 2.8* camber in the front and 2.2* camber in ther back. My fitment is good enough to qualify in the wheel fitment whore thread, I just need to lower it about another 1/2".

Ive only seen one person on here with them. I'll see if I saved the pic. You can also try the pic request thread

one of them is right and one sounds retarted

[jspecusa]

wheel fitment thread please
Which wheel size and offset you recommend?


like everything else, it's all personal taste.
before you decide which wheel think of the following: what are you using the wheels for?
street,racing, or show(see below).
what type of person are you?
conservative---just wider then stock with no rubbing and bigger look.
racer type---widest possible without passing the fenders(rubbing or not depend on how low the car is, spring rate, and tire size).
hard core---will do ANYTHING to make it fit. rolling of fenders, negative camber, fender flares, and stretching the tires.

last---FNo1R has been discontinued for ages, due to the 2x the price of cast wheels.

LOL! I read that exact same thing on your website like 7 years ago! Still just as true today.

Somewhat true, but I have a good sense of functionality! Which is MUCH more important than style! :bigok:

[Taniguchi_Is_#1]
