I can not find the Subzeros 17x7.5 with a 48 offset, I was able to find them with 45, any thoughts ??

try www.autornd.com. if it's not on their website, give them a call.

I have a problem finding the subzeros with the finish I want and with 48 offset, I can either find them with 45 offset and the finish I want or 48 offset but not with the right finish. So my question is should I just go with 45offset or with 48 but not like I want them. My other question is if someone know if it will be easy to make the lip of the rim polished, I mean can i do it myself. Thanks in advance.

do you guys think that $1260 is a good price for 17x7 5Zigen FN01R-C with 225/45 Proxes4 shipped, balanced, ..?

I would get the Proxes 4s over the Kumhos, I just got my Motegi FF7s with Proxes and this is my second set. Hold the road well, wet weather is no problem, and theyre quiet.

I was debating between the proxes and the ecstas and I did a little research in the forum and everyone was saying they are very happy with the ecstas.

I paid 850 for wheels and tires, wheels were 539 and tires were 276 at cost, but the total would have been about 1400 if I would have paid retail. Tires are 205/40/17s.

you're not gonna get much lighter than these. 18x10 is 14lbs. price is another story though

what do you guys think about the tire size, is 225 too much, should I go with 215 ? Should I go with 50, or 40, or 45 is fine ?? Thanks

Man, this has been discussed dozens of times. Look around. The answers you seek are easily available.

Yeah i think i put just over a grand on my schwab's account. not the best deal but i needed to get my summer tires off and I didn't have cash on hand.

it is crazy I have been trying to find wheels for my car for nearly a week. I can't find neither the 5Zigen FN01R-C in Black with a poilished lip or the Rota Subzero with a polished lip, I tried calling everywhere and they tell me they don't have them in that size (17x7 +48). Any ideas? Thanks

I went through the same thing trying to find wheels before finally going with what I bought. Black with polished is a hard one to find IMO, especially in our offset. I went through countless websites and finally ended up going to the local tire shop, where I got them at cost.
