will 5zigen FN01R 17x8 35mm fit?

i was wondering if these would actually fit without any issues. i had submitted my payment to a member here but we're up in the air about the fitment. i guess if worst case i can run a 5mm spacer but i would perfer not to.

so can anyone shed some light on this? i would like to know as soon as possible so that we can decide whether to ship them out or for me to get my money back. thnaks in advance!

i have a set of 5zigen FN01R-C in 17x8. i am not certain of the offset, but i am assuming they only come in one offset for our cars, correct?

i haven't mounted them on my car yet with my works springs, but the guy i bought them off of had them on an evo with a stock suspension and was not running spacers. stock sized tire too i believe.

well there is a 25mm version that most vendors carry for the evo. i just "bought" these of someone on here but he never tried them on his car. so were thinking that the offset might not work can you check the offset of your set?

my car is lowered on eibach but soon to be replaced with GTWorx springs

If it is a 35 offset they will not clear the Brembo's up front. As for the back? I dont know I didn't even bother trying.

Get with Mitsuorder... he has knowledge of 17x9 (255/40/17s) fitment without issue, in what I believe to be a 35 offset.

hey zeus thanks for the info. if they were 17x9 i would imagine they would fit. but since they are 17x8 it poses a problem. but either way i got my money back.
