Could you please list the offsets that each wheel comes with? I'm mostly interested in the 17"GN+. Also, can you guys mount / balance tires on them as well?

That's the list of the offsets for the Pro Racer GN+

That's the list of the offsets for the FN01RC

the only thing holding me back is that i need brakes first, and i dont wanna half *** it, so im gonna do my q upgrade now and end up spending about $200 more than i would have. I'll buy pads, lines, and fluid from you guys tho, and wheels maybe in a few months? And KTS coilovers and tension rods and toe arms and traction arms and rucas...in a few years. Honestly though, i think SPL is quite the cool company. ****, I'd buy SPL groceries if I could

Do you know if they will be coming out with an S13 fitment (4x114.3) for the GN+?

Post by **Nismo_Freak** » Sun Sep 19, 2004 11:25 am

I would imagine they would, they are a new line of wheels so I would give them some time to produce them further. With the popularity of the FN01R-C's in a 4x114.3 I think they honestly will develop their wheel lines to incorporate the 4 lugs.

i just sent you an email on ordering 2 17x9.5 GN+ wheels in +38 offset

Awesome

Still need this answer! How long will this awesome deal last? I think I'll probably just end up with the FN01RC's in 17x8 and 17x9. Thanks again...

edit: Just curious, but what color do you think would look best on a black S13 coupe?

Sorry bro, I'm sure I can do it with a crowbar but your wheels won't be exactly *ahem* round

Real Answer: We don't have the equipment to do it properly, sorry.

i need 5-4.5 17x7 +25 and 17x8 +25 where are they dammit!

Post by **kclo4** » Mon Sep 20, 2004 6:55 pm

I'm having a hard time figuring out what wheels will fit on my S14 SE. I have the KTS coilovers on order from you which confuses things even more.I am using the stock SE wheels right now, but I have Gram Lights 57C 17x8.5 +40 in front and 17x9.5 +38. The front has about a 5mm spacer. Mind you I bought the car with this setup, it wasn't my doing.

The car is lowered by about 1" with eibach prokit springs.

The fronts clear the fender easy with 235 wide tires.The rears are very close to rubbing and clear mostly from the negative camber caused by lowering.

I had planned on selling the Gram Lights to pay for the coilovers and it sounds like this setup wont clear on the inside anyway. Is this true?

After I get the money thing figured out I want to order some of these 5Zigens.

I like the looks of the Gram Lights a litter better than the FN01R-C's but they are cheaper. I really dig the GN+ though.

I want to get 17x8" or 17x8.5" all the way around this time with the proper offset. I need them to clear the coilovers and the fenders. I may be able to get the fenders rolled but not pulled and no wide body kits.

With those wheel sizes, what is the maximum offset that will clear the coilovers and Z32 brakes(26mm front only)? What is the offset that will clear and be as flush with the fenders without actually hitting(235 or 245 tire size all the way around)?

17x8 +25 front / 17x9 +35 would be a good all around combo.

235/45/17 front / 255/40/17 rear -- well used track combo on Japanese S14's

Got the actuall wheels today from splgreat service and took less then a week

if any1 wanna see little better resolution of the wheels i took quickly 2 pics

http://www.brodilka.com/s14/

Even though they were not my initial choice they look better up close then on pics plus i guess the rest of money will go toward the turbo

Post by **kclo4** » Tue Sep 21, 2004 5:33 am

What was the minimum offset to clear the coilovers on these sizes?

What offset is needed in the rear with 8" or 8.5" wide wheels? I don't know when I will have enough power to make 9-9.5" worth while.

Just curious. With the setup you mentioned, why 45 profile in front and 40 profile in back?

The offsets I gave are the best fitment for the 240, including coilovers.

235/45/17 has a better load rating and hence will be a better tire than the 235/40/17 in terms of performance.

Post by **chmercer** » Tue Sep 21, 2004 8:05 am

i HIGHLY suggest buying 17x9 +15 17x10 +25 f/r if you have s14. anything higher just looks bad.

SPL 4 life!!

Post by **aither** » Tue Sep 21, 2004 12:08 pm

can anyone verify what the 17x9 +15 wheels weigh? I'm guessing about 20lbs or so. The 225/45/17 ST-115's on them are some heavy tires, though. The 17x10 +25's were some heavy mofo's just from picking them up. Much heavier than my DT's with ES100's. I know the ProRacers are between 21 and 24 lbs depending on size and offset.

Sorry about the threadjacking today.

Hey, since you guys just got the 5Zigen A-spec exhaust, will you also be offering the Border-III exhaust? Either the 60 or 70mm versions...

Hm...how would this compare to 17x8 +25 all around with 225/45/17? i was pretty set on that setup, but if there's another proven option, I'm all ears

How much would it cost to ship a set of 17x9 +15, 17x10 +25 to Victoria, BC Canada? BTW, that's a smoking deal.

Post by **Nismo_Freak** » Fri Sep 24, 2004 5:52 pm

Please email us your postal code: [email protected]

BTW, we have a set of 17x9 +15 in matte black in stock.

Sorry about the threadjacking today.

17x9 = 19 lbs.

Falkens have always been a heavy tire. I'd suggest moving to an ES100 or a Toyo T1-S if you want something lightweight.

Anyone have better photos of the Matte Black and Hyper Black 5Zigen wheels? The photos on the 5Zigen site kind of suck.

Also, can anyone comment on the durability of these wheels compared to something like a Kosei KS1? The city where I live is fraught with potholes, railroad tracks and a variety of other road hazards. I'm very careful, but I'd hate to bend a $200 wheel within a week or two of buying it.

Post by **dr!ft** » Sun Sep 26, 2004 4:18 pm

^^^ I was just gonna ask the same question! I'd really like to see some nice pics of the hyber black color. I'm guessing it's a little "shinier" than the matte black.

As for matte black, I found this awesome pic...

Those rear wheels are 17x9" +38 (S13 w/ five lug)http://www.nissanperformancema...240sx/
