I'm looking for a good wheel and tire set for my 87 FC base. I'm interested in twin-spoke, mesh, and five-star designs... black, silver, metal, gunmetal finish. I have the 4-lug pattern and I'm not interested in doing the 5-lug swap. Thanks for any help anybody can provide. Either there isn't much choice out there for the 4-lug or I'm not looking in the right spots. Thanks in advance.

EDIT: Looking to go 15-16"

Thanks. I got a set of Enkei's 16" from DiscountTireDirect.com. Hope I like them : )

 

The best setup for that car is the 5Zigen FN01RC 17x8 4x114.3 +35 offset. If you're gonna just run KYB's and springs this is perfect. Hit me up i'll get you a phat deal.

Your other options are some Rota D2's i have coming in but they are a bit low of an offset. I'm sure I can find something that will be a good fitment for your PCD.

Ah ****, 15" or 16", hmmm. Darnit I don't think you'll get good widths out of them in a lower offset. Typically they will be more of a FF fitment.

ANyways, sorry my info was about 17's, but that's a damn good setup if oyu don't want to convert.

 

You don't have any pics of an FC with those rota wheels you were talking about do you? They look damn good.

 

I don't, we're still waiting for our first shipment. I have them coming in custom offsets for the FC 5 Luggers. I have them for S13's but are in the low 20's offset range. I have a feeling we may have sold out. I will know soon. I'm expecting to visit them next week for our shipment.

Oh **** I have a fitment in stock for the 4 luggers. It's a 17x7.5 front and rear but a good offset. Not like FDW offsets.

These is the wheel I orderd. They're a 16x7 4-lug 114 & 42 offset.

I'll post a pic up when I install them on my car.

 

These are Enkei J10 Mat Black with polished lip. 16X7 42 offset 4-lug... Dunlop Direzza 215/50/R16. I think they look pretty good. There's about a finger width of space between the front shock/springs and the tire. The rears aren't even close to rubbing. Very satisfied. Before and after pictures.

 

Clean FC!

Now you have the same tire size as I do!

 

Thanks! It's "getting there"
