| I have spoken twice with the VP of 5Zigen USA, and he assured me both times that 5Zigen currently does not make a 17x10 +43 nor do they have a special contract to make that particular wheel. The only wheel they had ever specially contracted to do was a 17x9 +20 4 lug wheel for us, back then I had to order 200 of the wheels to get them made. This wheel is not secret, and is listed on the 5Zigen website: [ http://www.5zigenusa.com/product/wheel/fn01rc/index.html ] Notice the little footnote on the bottom about "limited production. Only available through ..." which includes us. If there is a specially contracted 17x10 +43, it would still be listed in the catalog with an appropriate footnote if it is available exclusively through ezwheelz. If you have a true 5Zigen manufactured 17x10 +43 wheel, this offset number will be cast into the wheel hub face. What is possible is that ezwheelz had the 17x10 +35 wheel machined down to a +43 offset. 5Zigen also offers this service but will only machine to +40 offset, their policy is not more than 5mm for safety. I have in the past gotten the +40 machined offset wheel for customers with 300ZXs. The fitment still requires fender rolling and slight pulling depending on ride height and camber. Most customers don't want to deal with that, especially when the 17x9 +35 will fit the same size tire without that work. That is why we usually recommend the 17x9 +35.
