New 17lb 17x8 for my TC :)
I just got my FN01RC redrilled to 5x110 from Upgrademotoring.com 17x8 35 offset, they were 17.6lbs....Mounted some bfg drag radials 225 45 17 on ft and bfg kdwnt 225 45 17 on rear. Dam I'm happy with how it drives hooks prety good, track trip will tell... Got these in about the time I finished my first few upgrades... I cant stop smiling.... lol I know it looks like a dam 4x4 and lowering is next. Mods so far are the wheels and tires, trifecta, Hann IC, MPx Exhaust shaved trunk.
I am sad to say that these wheels are being discontinued by 5Zigen, I like the weight and look is ok for the price. Bummer they are going away but glad I was able to get a set for my balt..

sounds like a good plan, my favorite thing about em is its not the "typical cobalt wheels" if you know what i mean by that, id say powdercoat em black and lower it and it would be sex!

Looks really nice, but alot of gap now. Thats what the 18's offer. (well if you plan to lower than your set).
Id like to get 17's my self, but lowering isnt an option where I live.. so stuck with 18's

Ill be sure to rig a tazer to it when we go to the track...lol...Yea im in FTW. I go to Denton and Kennadale depending on the day really. Ill look for a DFW thread and see if there is any meets scheduled.
I was worried about having just the trunk painted but it came out pretty good. I figured if it did not match well i would have it blended later with the quarters.
