bad news i just got a call back from the company and they said they no longer carry them in hyper black. so now i'm left with silver, bronze, or straight black. i was really hoping for hb but i guess i'm going with silver. either that or i might just get the 5zigen fighters instead. any suggestions?

i'd say go with silver. bronze might look pretty good too, i hear that's the new "bandwagon":p

ok i just found out they also won't be in stock for another 2 weeks then it'll be 10 days before they ship. so thats another month. i found a good deal on the 5zigen fighters in titanium though, let me know what you guys think.http://www.discounttiredirect.com/direct/findWheelDetail.do?step=details&productType=WHEEL&source=vehicle&index=70&productCodeIndex=76844

ok i ordered them from another company for a little cheaper. they only had machined silver that was in stock so thats what i got. every thing else was on back order for 6 weeks:o . so silver will have to do. hey i can always get them powdercoated.

I like those, I actually looked at them for my Spec in Black. Let me know how things go with Wheel Max, if you order from them.

the silver looks good too but i was looking for a more dark on dark look with the car. oh well, several companies were telling me that they were gonna stop selling hyper black altogether with the fn01rc's. i tried like 5 different companies. the fighters and the rc's were around the same price. except i didn't really care for the color of the fighters, they were like a bronze and a rose color together. kinda weird.

I've ordered through wheelmax before and got my wheels in three days.

wheel max was out of stock of the rc's so i ordered through wheel shop, they actually had a lower price and they will be here in 5 days. not too bad. they included mounting and balancing and i think lug nuts too.

Chad,
Sorry for not getting back to you, I have been tooooooo busy at work. Did you already order the rims?
If not, then I will have Zack call you. He will take care of you and order them and tires tomorrow for you.
Let me know.
Thanks,
Nathan

hey nathan its cool man i understand about being busy and all. i ordered them from a place called wheel buys and they gave me a really good deal on them. also they will be here in like 5 days. i had a lot of trouble finding them in hyperblack though. everyone was out or they weren't carrying them any more.
