Mmmmm..... Got my new meat mounted today.

Wheels are 17x9 FN01R-C

Tires are RA1s










I'll be taking them for a little test drive this weekend. Now I don't have an excuse when I get my *** handed to me in ASP.

 

welcome to the road kill cafe ...

 

Mmm, yummy. 255/40/17?

 

Yep.

 

I have the same setup for my car. So far, I have almost 1800 road miles and 47 autox runs on mine. I am pretty happy with them, though at full tread depth they do give up a little to the other r-compounds in autox, but for my current situation they work great.

 

let's see pics of them ON the car!!

 

Why does everyone buy this wheel? I like it but is there a weight advantage or something I don't know about? It has to be the most common wheel.

 

Was that a type-o? 47 Auto-X's?

 

Because they are cheap and light.

< $200 per wheel for a 17x9 that weighs around 19lbs.

 

are those gold rims? i know a good powder coat guy if you are interested. i can get you a pretty good deal too.

 

No they're silver. They look gold because of the sunset/garage lighting and my l33t camera skillz.

Everett offered to have my wheels powdercoated as well. He knows a guy who can do it for $45 each wheel. If you can beat that, I'll take it.

 

Pics of them on the car will come this weekend.

 

cheap, relatively light & strong, wide, looks good.

I picked up a set for ~470 bucks for 17x9's in black.

Nice wheels to the original poster...and I agree, let's see some shots of them on the car.

BTW, I'm vegetarian but I'm running 255 meats as well

 

Thanks. You will see them soon.
