Yeah I think I really like these wheels just not too much the Hyper Black, Im taking out the centers today to see what I can do with them.

Mike, shift pedals and cheap exhasuts aside, 5Zigen makes some pretty nice wheels, matter of fact I think Im going to try to reproduce the machined/clear anodized finish that are on my FN01R-Cs, it just looks awesome

BTW, still running 265s on both these sets

You know, I kind of like them. I don't think I would want them on my own car, but I do kind of like the way
they look. And BTW, nice fat tires

Hey, those look decent on a silver car, but they'd look overkill on any other color.

Nice with a light twist of bling.

The WRX is known for having wheels that stand out.. . GOLD is bling!

krinkov it looks like there are enough people here that like them, so maybe you could sell them, the demand is there apparently. how ready they are to buy uber expensive jdm wheels? well thats another issue.

but dude, how did you get 265s to fit without rubbing? rolled fenders, coilovers, really stifff springs?
