I'm in the market for some brand new 5zigen FN01R-C's and was wondering if anybody could tell me where I could find the best price on them. Either wheels alone or a wheel/tire package. The cheapest price I have found for a 17x8, 17x9 package is about 790 for just wheels from SPL parts. If you know of anywhere else with some good prices please let me know. Thanks for the help.

SPL is about the cheapest you will find and they also have excellent customer service. I just got my wheels in and put them on with my tires and I must say I like it.

225/45/17 comes pretty close to rubbing stock suspension in the front. I also could have gone with a lower profile tire as my car now sits noticably higher, but that can be changed when I do my coilovers.

IveBeenBad, you said that the 17x7's come close to your stock suspension, do you think with a coilover being much slimmer than the stock spring/strut, that I could fit a 17x8?

Got my 17x7 from SPL. Cheapest I could find + they are a NICO sponsor also. They shipped really cheap too. Might be able to find a package somewhere for cheaper, but those come with crap tires in bad sizes.

Alot of people run 17x8 up front. +25 offset I think. Search the suspension forum.

With the right offset you can clear 17X8 on a stock suspension so yes with a coilover setup you can clear as well.
