only the 18x9.5 and the 17x10 size wheels have the newer bent spoke design.

all other sizes regardless of offset have the older flat spoke design.

hey that silver FD looks good on those FNO1Rc's!

Thanks Owen. They're actually only temporary until I get 19s on the car--but they're great for the track.

hey exhaustnote, what size tires are you running front and back and did you have to roll your fenders? How much is your car lowered? Does it sit flush with the fenders or does it stick out a little? Thanks

Tire widths:
235 front
265 rear

Didn't roll the fenders

I'm using Buddy Club D-1 coilover suspension. I had the car pretty slammed when it was stock wheels (see image below). Once we put on the 5Zs I had to bring up the height a lot because I didn't want the wheels to hit the fenders if it bottomed out while turning into a steep driveway.

The front is flush with the fender and the rear is "in" a tiny bit.

I know this is an old thread, hopefully you'll still reply. What size tires? I've got the same set up on the way and am curious.

Here is a link that will answer your questions.

https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...ghlight=5zigen

235/40/17 up front will not rub (non rolled fenders)
255/40/17 out back will not rub (non rolled fenders)

I THINK 255/40/17 FRONT and 275/40/17 BACK will not rub if you have rolled fenders.



This is my car with the above mentioned tires for non rolled fenders and the same offsets that you are getting.
