5zigen FN01-RCs on an FD?
Not even close. With those springs and non-rolled fenders, you would be lucky to get away with 245/40 and 265/40 tires (it would probably come down to exact tire brand and camber).
This pic is of the rear with a 255/40 on a 10" +35

I could run a 265 with a fender roll and maybe a 275, but it would definitely be close.
I run the same in the front, so it can be done.

I'm thinking about running this exact setup as well. I am on stock 93 touring suspension for right now though, will it work? If not, what springs would u recommend? Car is my daily driver so I'd just want something with a nice drop height and not extremely stiff. Eibachs maybe?
Thanks in advance!

looks good i really love my silver ones, surprisingly. i have some in bronze as well.
rolliing isnt as big a deal as some people make it out to be, at the very least find someone or even a body shop who can do it. with anything wide and under +40 its a good idea.

It seems that a lot of us have the same question. I am not interested in losing sidewall strengh.
My setup will consist.
F: 17X9 +43 255/40/17
R: 17X10 +35 265/40/17
For suspension I have Tein Flex coilovers.
However, I plan to increase to 275 on the rear once I get my FEED fenders, same for the front, or just keep it 255.

^^There you go.
Awesome setup. What tire sizes are you running? Any issues?
Those are the offset that I wanted, but the silver ones were backordered for several months.

How come the FDs FN01-RCs have the crazy cool rear concave but the FCs FN01-RCs looks the same as the front? Or does the rear just need to be wider than 8" for the concave, because i'm only looking at 8s.
For that rim, the 'concave look' starts with the 9.5" width rims.
question: how will 18x10 +19 fit.? front and rear... i believe the rear will fit fine..
tad worried about the fronts though... how do you guys go lock to lock as this is for a drift car...
will be running 235 or 225/40s probably (yes, it is stretched i know)

im running 235/45/17's. I had to wait for the bronze ones because they only had the silver +25 offsets in stock.lol no rubbing whatsoever in the rear. rolled front fenders w/ stance coilovers. slight toe out with supernow tie rod ends. rubs a bit during initiation of drifts using weight transfer ie: feints, it rubs but doesnt do any damage to fenders or tire.
