man i wish they made those GN+'s in hyperblack... they are a nice looking wheel.

the hyperblack would look really nice on an sb z....i have seen the bronze on a silver z and they looked great!

i have a personal experience with wheelmax.

hit or miss kind of deal. my experience wasnt too bad. i got the wheels relatively quick and the packaging was great. no damage to the wheels. came with lugs as promised. if they have a set of wheels that you like, just hope for the best haha.

they did butcher up my name and the address.... i really do wonder how they made it to my place lol.

i wonder why they dont have axis hiros... they have just about all the other axis lineup. they claim they're the biggest axis distributor.

hyperblack is kind of a gunmetal look right? i'd love it if they came in a gloss black with the polished lip. but Z1...can you let me know a price for (2)18x8.5 and (2)18.9.5 with and without tires. thanks.

i might be mistaken, but im pretty sure 5Zigen does custom orders, where you can get the wheel you want done in any color that they offer.

hyperblack is kinda a shiney gunmetal color. here is a pic, its not the GN+, but its hyperblack

i've seen the f1's (not installed) in person in the hyperblack and that color looks really nice...if they do custom i don't see why they wouldn't do these in black also redshft

anyone have specs on the GN+'s while we are doing some pricing and such...weights, offsets, sizes lip potential...z1?

thanks for the pic and info too mdacko

as far as weight is concerned Road Warrior, the 18x8.5 is supposed to weight around 18.5-19lbs and the 18x9.5 more around 19 lbs. the FNO1R-C's weight a tad bit less i believe, ive also been thinking about these wheels. they just dont look as nice as the GN+ though.

i agree redshft...the GN+ are a nicer looking wheel imo...i just liked the hyperblack are far as the color goes. for 18's these are a nice setup but i am still undecided...i like the agressive look of 19's. why don't they have these in 19's....or do they?

17x8.5
17x9.5

Also what is the widest wheel I can fit in the front and back of the Z?

how do you know this? not trying to be a dick or try to act like i know what im talking about. but ive read on multiple websites the 18'' FNO1R-C's are ~18lbs...depending on width of the wheel.
