Im thinking of selling my Volk GT-N's and planning to buy a set of 5zigen FNO1R-C wheels with the glossy black center and polish lip (see attachment). Going for a new look I guess. I know they will fit, 18x9.5 all around w/ +45 offset and I plan on using my 245/40 tires with these wheels. Im just having a tough decision of I should go ahead and do this or just keep my volks, Im about 50/50 on this. Some of your guys feedback would be appreciated...

 

245/40/18's on a 9.5" tire ? Those are tiny on a 9.5" tire. I would say, just keep your current rims I think they look better than the ones you want to go to.

 

no question about it ryan. keep the volks!

 

Yeah, there shouldn't be much of a decision to make here. Keep the Volks bro.

 

for looks, stick w/ volks.

 

KEEP THE VOLKS THE GT-Ns LOOK GREAT

 

Yea, switching over would be downgrading I think.

 

^^ i think so too

 

consensus says stick with volks!

 

volks volks volks

 

volks man volks!

 

stick with your GTN man!! it looks better and lighter!

 

i want 5 zigens lol... but then again id prally get volks if i could afford them...

 

Hmm....

HAVE YOU LOST YOUR F*CKING MIND???!!!???!!!

if you do this, I will be forced to fly out to VA and b*tch slap the sense back into you.

-hS

 

, I know they don't compare but 5zigen is still a good company. I'll be keeping them, I already have several people intersted in buying them already. So sorry people they are not for sale! Thanks guys for keeping me on track. Volks it is.

 

Brands aside you would be moving from a forged wheel to a cast wheel... big no no there.....

You are already owning Volks.... the only way to move is to move to multi-piece forged wheels.... bling bling

 

Exactly thats why I was 50/50 on it My friend is a bad influence he was convincing me I should sell them, only because he wanted to buy my Volks for himself that bastard!

 

That's a blatant red flag right there.

Should've been like, "No, go get your own tots!"

 

hahaha easy decision =)

 

dont get suckered into it!

 

haha.. your friend is evil.!

 

Oh I agree... 5zigen is definetely a good brand, and i was very close to picking up a 17 for just track wheels.

Going from Volk to 5Zigen is as if I were to trade in my 8 for the new civic si. Sure the new SI is a great car, but there is no way in hell i would ever downgrade to it.

Glad to hear you finally came back to your senses and decided to not do it.

 

Plus the rx8club.com Rays Wheels Owner's club is cool!

 

I can make the 5zigen club and make it cool too, I would have been head president.

 

In that case, let me trade in my Volks for a set of FNO1R-C! LOL!
