volk or 5zigen
hey everyone. im currently not sure which rim looks better on a fc. the volk ce28 or the 5zigen fno1rc. i love both rims but i only see the volk rim on fd's. if someone could show me pics of the volk rim and pics of the 5zigen rim i would really be thankful. thanks in advance.

lol. 5zigen is to volk as hamburger is to filet mignon.
lookswise i think either looks fine.
5zigen fn's always looked nice. people hate on them now because everyone and their grandma has them, including me.

Not that there is anything wrong with the FN01R-C (they are a light decent quality wheel at a great price), comparing the two side by side is like a Ferrari compared to a volkswagen. If money really isnt an issue, and there are sizes/offsets that fit your need for both, go with the Volks.

no question about it... if you have the money, get the volks.

so i was looking at autornd and it looks like each whell is going to be about a little over $500 each. 
. im still going to get them but it will take a little longer now 
. i was thinking 17x8 in the front and 17x9 in the rear. what do you guys think? and what offset should i get?
