Hey you guys, I saw an add for the 5Zigen FN-01 forged one piece rims right next to the Celi shootout in SCC, noticing the rims are pretty light, and they come in bronze. So I checked out 5Zigen's website and looked at all of the types of the FN-01 that they make:

Now, I'm guessing (I'm a wheels dummy) that PCD means the space between bolts, and since the Celica is a 5 x 100 mm, the only set that'll fit right in would be the 17 x 7.5. That stinks, since I want either 15s or 16s. Would spacers make the rims fit? How much do these cost? Is rim strength a problem with the FN-01s? Is this, along with Kosei K-1s, a viable lightweight alternative to TE-37s, or is it just a pretender?

I think i found the price of these somewhere and they were damn expensive ... prolly i think around the same price as TE-37

nope. however, i think i might need them in the front because if i take HARD turns (i.e Sharp U-Turns in my Cul de Sac), it rubs.

guess i have to spend more money on it now.
