Exel F-1 - Gunmetal - PICS

[batmang]

my wheels came in today, i like them alot. the only thing i hate... is the orange decal... i need to get that removed.

 

[batmang]

oh yeah, they were only $660 shipped. specials rock.

If they are Excel, why do they have the 5Zigen FN-01R type decal on there?

I think these are the sames ones that Azeli has & they look great on his car...should look even better on white. (thumb)

 

[batmang]

yeah, these are the 5Zigen FN-01R knockoffs. Cant beat the price, and they look EXACTLY the same.

Get a shop to check the balancing of them for you, because both Nate0123 and I had issues when ours came from Wheelmax. Oh and go get better lugnuts now, before they start rusting out on you

 

[night rider]

looks hot mang, post pics of them on the p5!

 

[BlueWolfCry]

nice wheels. where'd you get them from? were they easy to deal with?

 

[batmang]

www.wheelmax.com

they were on special, i got them in about a week. they were really easy to order from.

 

[DiS]

man, these wheels look WERRIE WERRIE AWESOME! Gongrats on the buy! Now lets see these puppies on the car!(rockon)

Yo they look sweet John!

What kind of tires are those? Nitto? And what's the real diff in construction between these and fn-01r-c? I'm gonna get the real things in bronze but the're gonna be like 1400 with tires... yikes! How much do they weigh mang?

The difference is that these are probably produced in some random factory in tiawan, where the 5zigens are produced in japan to higher standards.

Those wheels are as bad as their spoon sw knockoff wheels that say SPOOM on the spokes. If your going to make a knockoff, don't try to front like the real wheel with the decals.

haha FN01R-5...its like buying an Arnani suit, or a Folex watch (lol2)

they doo look good tho. lose the stickers

lol SPOOM. Ya the decal is just retarded. I wasn't really considering these... just wanted to know the diff. I know the obvious diff is that they're knockoffs, but just wanted to know how far they were knocked off. Get my PM about the fuzions?

 

[batmang]

the wheels weigh 17lbs, the tires are very very cheap, Nankang NS-1's. 205/40/17. they come with the wheels in a tire package, like i said they were very cheap, $660 with tires and lugnuts, shipped.

 

[batmang]

btw, any suggestions on removing the decals?.... hair dryer?

 

[batmang]

k, got the decals off. just my nail to it, the shiz came off really easy... lol.. gooo exel! looks way better imo.

 

[Leppy]

Hey, i'm about to order some rims from them myself.. PLEASE let me know how those Nankang NS-1 tires perform! i hope they're as good or better as the Yokohama AVS-ES100's I had on my old Focus hatchback.

 

[batmang]

these tires are not going to be as good as yokohoma ave-es-100's, thats for sure. these are the bargain tires you get when you do the tire/wheel packages with wheelmax. they are without a doubt, one of the cheapest tires you can buy.. period. lol. for what i paid, i cant complain. like i said, i got wheels and tires, with lugnuts, shipped for $660. cheap tires or not, thats a smoking deal.

 

[Leppy]

i'm gonna call em tomorrow after i get the $450 from my neighbor (he's buying my stock rims and tires for his 1st gen)..

maybe see if they can put AVS-ES100's on there instead of NS-1's
