Default 5zigen GN+

recently looking into wheels and a close friend is buying vendor status from 5zigen so he needs a buy in and is offering us cost. Im looking at the 5Zigen GN+ and ive seen it on two S2ks so far but the offset is what im questioning i believe that they are 48+

I've seen a couple of GN+ wheels on s2ks in person and it looks like it clears the rear, but it's pretty close. My BBS are 8.5" wide with +55 offset, so the GN+ wheels would stick out 7mm, which would make it right about flush w/ the rear fender. If you lower it, some negative camber should be enough to keep it from rubbing. How much can you get them for (both 1775/1785 and 1875/1885)?

We are waiting for my friends vendor license to be sent to them, he currently runs HIDplace.com and is expanding to rims 5Zigen, Work , Advan,Volk, TechArt are just a few i remember but like i said he needs a buy in on 5Zigen so i found the GN+ 's when we get the pricelist from them ill pm you.

Would rolling the rear fender help ? ive read where someones got them on with a set of prokits and has no rubbing, so I think thats the root im going 17x7.5 in the front 17x8.5 in the rear Thanks a lot for the comfirmations

You shouldn't need to roll the fender. Dialing in the right amount of camber should be enough. PM me the price list when you get it. Thanks!

Just tell your friend to open an whole sale account with Discont Tire Direct, he will get the same cost as a dealer from them or from 5zigen. Their discount is not much compared to what you will get as a stocking WD.
