Got a special deal from a store on a set of 5Zigen Fn01r-C 18x9.5 +35mm Hyperblack, 255/35/18 BFG KDWS and Lugnuts for $1780 shipped. It's a good deal and everything is brand new and mounted/balanced, but should i get it?

 

Umm. Arent you asking for people to notify you of just such a deal in your sig?

 

true, but when i find these wheels on evom they are used and average around $1200-1500 shipped. And they usually contain scratches and minimal tire wear. I know the wheels seperately are around $270 each and the bfg tires are $250 each. So in total I would pay about $2200 Shipped for this brand new set. But im instead paying $1780 which saves me $420.

So should i wait until i find a used set and save $300-500 dollars or just buy it new?

 

Dude buy what you want, not what other people on this site like. It's your money. If you like the wheels get em.

Ultimately, its your money and choice. They are nice wheels but if I were spending that much money, I'd go with something else.

 

Are the used tires coming with a warranty? Only you can decide what you are willing to pay, as well as compromise. And unless you come across a set that is local, you will be paying for shipping.

 

yea i have second thoughts on these wheels sometimes, so what would wheels/tires you buy if you had $1800 to spend?

 

It depends on what you like. The P45R seems to be pretty popular.

 

i like the concave on that wheel but im not a rota fan.

 

i decided to get it. goodnight guys.

 

Well, there are certainly a lot of choices out there. I happen to like the FN01Rs myself. Look through the galleries, and Im sure youll find a set you like. You are the one who is going to have to live with them.

 

DO some more price research with other venders.
just to let you know, venders here in socal ***** out HOzigens like butta!
1780 is nothing special, believe me..

 

What's the correct offset for these wheels? 35?

Do the 18x9.5s give the concave look or they are flat? i know that the 18x8.5s are flat, but how about the 18x9.5 ET35?

Can someone give me an answer?

 

I guess I got lucky when I got mine. Got a set of FN01R-C's in bronze with 245/40/18 Hankook Ventus tires for my stockers + $200 from a buddy of mine here in town. There's a bit of scratching on one rim, but it's hardly noticeable. Anytime you're buying used, you should expect there to be minor blemishes - if it's pristine, that should be a bonus, not an expectation.

Personally, if I have to weigh whether or not you can afford the "deal" in front of me, I wait. 9 times out of 10, there is a better deal right around the corner.

 

do they concave or they are flat like the 18x8.5s or smaller? what size did you get?

 

+35mm and it is concave.
