Can someone kindly photo chop these wheels on FX?

I think I'm really close to buying these.

I was looking at those years ago, I thought they were discontinued.

They will be as soon as they clear remaining inventory. Pretty cheap since they are discontinuing.

Looks pretty cool

Those are cool. I like!

Can someone please photochop these on an FX?

I'm getting mixed opinions. I think it'll make the wheels bigger than 20s due to the spoke design, but it does look really simple in design..

What are the weight of these?

nice, hopefully these will fit the new upcoming fx50 brake upgrade. I think I will sell my ordens and just get a set of lightweight 19's. I miss the extra power of my 20's:frown:

That's very nice

so 20x9.5 with +35 offset all around should be a perfect fit for our FX? I suppose this would make the wheels concave in a bit? Would +45 offset make it less concave?

What tires size would work?

God forbid something happens to your wheels and they need replacing, that's the only problem I see with discontinued wheels. Hot wheels tho .. :top::top:

I think the +45 (EXTEND an extra 14mm) would be better +35 might rub (EXTEND an extra 24mm), a +40 wold be ideal (extra 19mm) also I wonder if the TPMS will fit in there.
which offset would have the most 'concave' effect? I like concave.

 

[rookie]

+25 will be fine depending on the tire. Generally with the concave type wheels the lower the offset, the more the face is designed to be concave.

 

[Mongolian]

so +45 will have less of a concave and fit as nicely then?

less concave is better imo

 

[rookie]

+45 will be more tucked than +25, +45 refers to the measured distance from the centerline of the wheel to the mounting point. Remember 0 offset is dead center of the wheel. On a 10" wide wheel that's 5" in both directions. -25 means 6" out 4" in and vice versa. mm is a smaller measurement and works better in reality than using something +5/32 or +1" which is what +25 is.

Clear as mud?

I know Rookie is right. I just realized that you have to make sure the inner clearance is enought (should be)

cool, so if I ever get these rims I can go concave and you go flat. lol

So I convinced my wife.... I think I'm gonna purchase it.

I wonder if Z1 can give me a better price???

I'm still confused on the offset thing... I always get confused with this offset thing. So it sounds like +45 offset and +38 offset will work either way, but +38 will push the wheel further out and +45 will be a bit tucked in. I should be OK with inner clearance on both of these offsets, right?

What tire size would u guys recommend for each offset? Wider would be preferable and I am lowered on H&R

 

[Mongolian]

I placed my order with Z1 today. Kwame was able to give me a pretty competitive price. These wheels are not TPMS compatible according Kwame.

Now, I just need to order tires.

Which tires size should I be ordering? I would like to purchase Yokohama Prada-X

295/45, 285/45, 275/45??

Help would be appreciated.

as for the TPMS, I have read Dr2K have drilled new holes for the sensor. I would imagine location is very important due to the balance of the whole tire/rim.
