I currently have 5zigen FN01R-C 17x9 rims on my car with 255 nexen n3000s check it out...more pictures of the car coming soon when its finished, there are some body issue that need to get taken care of.








I currently have a zero toe out setup (I may go more) and I have camber bolts going on i'm thinking of running -1.0 to -1.5, but this would be my street and autocross setup

 

Nice, any flush shots?

 

Looks really good, I like that drop.

 

loving the tires man.Nice drop there.

 

yo that width is off da hizzey yo

 

Very curious to see more full shots of this, post up any you have please...

No one else has this setup and I was considering this for awhile.

 

not a fan of 17's but I love these rims and im glad to see that they sit flush keep it up

 

Great looking wheels. I think 18's would look perfect. When the spokes don't go all the way to the lip of the wheel, the wheel tends to look a little smaller than what it actually is.

 

Looks real nice. I love those rims in that color. They are pretty light too. Awaiting more pics of the rest of the car.

How do you like those tires? I see plenty of good deals on eBay for them.

 

I took some pics yesterday they will be up once i'm out of work....

and as for the tires, well they are getting better ratings then falkens and I love them, real quiet not much road noise, only bad thing, they are a soft rubber and will wear a bit faster

 

I didn't go 18's because of weight, I wanted to knock off alot of weight, I think I knocked off 2 or 3 lbs a wheel if i remember correctly

 

Nice set up! I'm not a fan of big wheels as they just weigh you down. Its nice to see you stick with a 17 inch size.

 

 

Things to notice in these pictures
Absolutely NO chrome on the car all of it is gone, blacked out window trim, blacked out door handles, chrome trime in grille is gone. If you mention the Nissan emblems I'll smack you.
second the body kit is not on the car....why? Its being painted along with my rear spoiler which actually needs to be mounted.
third that is my gf in the car and no you can't seem more pics of her

so that being said enjoy it for now, this car is no where near done, I'm hoping to max every possible ounce of power out of this motor.

 

one last one for you chumps

oh and one last thing, check out my grille, Its painted the color of the car hehe

In november look for a new thread when the car is visually done and all thats left is just motor work, cause the interior and suspension will be done.

 

93 octane-that a boy!

 

get rid of that nismo hood protector thing...looks

 

Ichigo?

 

hood protector stays, its covering up some damage from rocks, but the sticker is going to get peeled off



Ichigo is the name of the car....it means "one guardian"

 

Ichigo in japanese actually stands for "Strawberry." But Bleach is cool. Lol. But when broken apart "ichi" stands for one and "go" stands for to protect, or guardian. In the episode where he mentions it.. he disects it as "Ichi" = Number one and "go" means Guardian. So he thinks he's the number one guardian. Actually that episode was on last night if I recall correctly.

 

always loved those rims. look extra good on ur max!

 

ohh you's a nasty bitch. looks awesome man. unfortunately 17x9 FN01RCs are like 19lbs.

edit: just checked on ER, and according to them the 17x9s are 17.5lbs. According to the 5zigen site they're more like 19 thought IIRC... weird.

 

don't like rims, like a more solid looking wheel like a 7 spoke or a fat lip 5. but, its w/e you like.

 

LOL I was waiting for someone to point it out...its okay it goes with my car quiet nicely, samaraui sword is in the back.

 

17.5 to 18 lbs is what i weighed them in at.

they are lighter then my stockie 16's and thats all that mattered to me

 

u think i should go with 17s over 18s?

the 17s on ur car look a little small, but they would be lighter, and closer to stock.

i got a 4th gen. a white one - was lookin at dark grey or black 5 point alloys.

 

don't forget cost. I choose these instead of 18s cause it was cheaper, I also choose these wheels cause I don't want a lot of flash on my car, nothing to exotic and 17s fit the bill for both my perferences. I am getting a set of 18 HP evos soon enough.

Its all personal preference tho. I would stick with a light color wheel for a lighter color car.

 

First time I see that hood thing.

 

The tires don't rub? It looks like they poke out a bit in the front. I was looking into getting some Fn01r-c 17x8s. What offset do you have on the 17x9s?

 

looks good i have always been partial to the 5 bar wheels

 

38mm offset and no rub.

 

looks good bro hopefully mine will look as good as yours.
