I just bought these wheels and tires off my buddy. They are 17'' 5Zigen FN01R-C's in Bronze with BFGoodrich KDW's in 225/45. I'll post pics soon, heres a pic of them on his car http://twr.fresnoracing.com/diggyspiff/wheel.jpg

sweet rims. Nice color, too -- I like the bronze.

 

Pretty popular choice; I see lotsa Civics w/them nowadays. Affordable, compared to what I have. Get some locks on them.

They are a great choice. Lightweight and affordable since they're cast.

good choice

 

a 5zigen = EXCELLENT RIM

 

Nice rims. My friend has them in 17x9 and 17x10 for his 240 and they look great!

 

I <3 those

 

Same ones are on the way to me...for track use only

 

I just bought those rims as well, 17x8 bronze. Do you guys think that I will have any rubbing problems with an 89 max with the eibach 1.5" drop...I think that 225/45R17 are the right size tires...any input is appreciated...thanks

 

whats the diff b/w the R and the C?

 

The fn01r is forged (stronger, lighter and more expensive) and the fn01r-c is cast.

 

Any experiences?

 

I will be running 245/45/ZR 17 XL (extra load 99 rating), shaved to 4/32" for autocross and track use...

The tires I'm using (Hankook Ventus R-S2 Z212) suggest that an 8" rim is the "optimal size" for that size tire.

225's will look skinny on an 8" rim....my stock 17x7's came with 225 tires.

 

Won't 245s throw off my speedo?

 

what is cast?

 

very very nice

 

use the tire calculator in the stickies above....I don't know what the stock size/diameter for an '89 is....probably different from my '00

 

Nice, the pic with the Eclipse is bad@$$!

 

yeah, too bad its an eclipse

 

it all depends on tread width, some are wider thatn others. my falken 225s fit fine on 8 inch rims.

 

FYI, since this thread still has no pics....
