Calling all 5ZIGEN owners

Those are really nice. Did you have to do any fender rolling? About what offsets could I expect to use without worry about fender rolling on 18" tires. Or is it only a concern with larger tires?

mine are 18*8.5 on tein basics drop set at 1inch. yes, there's a hubcentric ring, unfortunately. that's a small plastic ring that the wheel sits on, right? it's small and almost unnecessary, but i put it on there.
i think they look sweet. the center cap says: try harder. heh, i love that.

okay, so my other post from a few hours ago isn't there anymore. in any case for 414to212 i have hubcentric rings.
and myriad, it might just be me or maybe it's because of the drop you have that i don't but the 10mm difference in offset between our offsets definitely makes a difference. i keep wanting to lower mine but am worried about rubbing with my +38 offset since i'm pretty close now.

i like the look of the lower offsets too, but i worry about performance. i figured the factory had a pretty good reason for the +50, so i wanted to stay close. i like em tucked under though too. classic performance.
i think you'd be fine with a drop. i actually had it all worked out because i was going to get the +38. They're more concave. Tight.

I've already shown these pics in the Aftermarket Wheels thread but I guess I should put them in here too for any future searches and to support this 5Zigen thread.
