Poll for FC Wheel guys: Which color?

Alright just want to see a poll of which color you guys would want.

Thanks guys. You can vote if you have a FD also. I think they might make this fitment for FD as well.

#2:


I'm gonna buy a set of these to mash on. I think a lot of other FC guys would too. Do you guys like the bronze?

A set of these for like $560.00 shipped, 17x8 and 9 +27ish offsets is amazing. I'm not much for replica but when drifting, this is a damn good deal.

it's a hard call to pick a color since it all depends on what color your car is...

I'm going to organize a group buy for these. I'm uncertain as to the weight of them at this moment. The specs are on my second post.

Just pick a color you would like. I have a feeling the gunmetal will be the more popular one. I guess just need to see if anyone would want the bronze.

Thanks.

Bro, you don't need to afford them now. But these are the cheapest damn staggered incredibly perfect offset fitment for FC's wheel I've ever seen in my life. And I have studied wheels for a very long time. These are still the cheapest.

These wheels are under $600.00 shipped or about $600.00 shipped with hardware. That's cheap.

Now that we know the price of them, what do you think will be your favorite color and would you buy them for that price.

More votes please. Don't like the wheel, just like the color. hehe.

WHat do you think would be more popular let's say? i already know it's gonna be about this.

Maybe two sets of bronze for every five sets of gunmetal.

What he said! Although I would have to say for most colors, the Gunmetal would be better.

One question, Endless...

What would be the cost on those rims (bronze) in 17 x 9 all the way around? Same as the 17 x 8, 17 x 9 you showed above? Also, are they available any wider than 9 (with offsets to match)?

Thanks,

Reese

Not available wider than 9". I will be receiving those sets by the end of the week hopefully for my evaluation. If they pass the test, I will put my name on it. lol. I can check for even lower offsets,

I can get you a +17 up front. This will just barely clear with coilovers according to my calculations with adequate camber, relative to tire size of course.

So it would be +17 front and rear, or +17 and +27 for the not so heavily modded rear fender. I'm awaiting one of our cars to be released from body shop shortly. Msport fenders front and rear. Woot woot. Although for this we will have Meister S1 wheels, but I'm looking to a cheap good offset wheel I can swap between this one and one of our Silvias for practice events.

Thanks.

Wow, well i'm out of retirement and back for good. I'm gonna bring these wheels in upon the request of your friendly gentleman above, Endless Work. I apologize as we've been tied up on some projects and were unable to bring this in. I will be ordering next week. Greatly appreciate your patience and the building anticipation is good. Maybe we can make this GB happen.

We will be getting a subforum setup in which we can host this GB. I will post up pricing tomorrow.

What is the color of the FD you will put these on. I do not think you mentioned it. I cannot decide without knowing the car's color.

Actually it's for a FC. I will need to look for good offsets for FD.

Yes sir I am back as a sponsor. It kinda sucks that the rack owns my old stomping grounds now. lol. But Ryan has been kind enough to set us up with a subforum. I am gonna go crazy now.

AutoRnD has really ripened into an incredible distributor of japanese race proven parts. Our linecard can be seen here:
