I don’t know why FN Wheels have to be so secretive.

They are knockoff designs that's why. My FN FX Pros have been great for the past two years and taken a ton of rock punishment. However, if the OEM TRD Pro wheels were 15x8 I would have definitely chose those.

Goods sold on ebay by individual sellers vs. a company selling product off a public facing website are two completely different things my friend.

Up until 75 minutes ago I didn't even know the Verge existed, how would I know to call and ask about it?

That’s true but there are companies selling knockoffs and not hiding it. Personally I like this two tone but the company I have no clue about

There was a time they sold mag blue volk replicas, and they didn't list it on their website, but it was posted all over social media
If you wanted a set you had to call them. Not sure why they do or don't list it, thats none of my business but it probably has to do with patents.
ultimately, i ended up going in a different direction.

I just spoke to Dustin last Friday about the FX Pros, which are right now going for $849.00/4. I wonder how much these options are going for? I really like the looks of all 3, so weight and price would be the deciding factors for myself.

They're a small ran business. Kind of I guess. They definitely could use some extra help for emails/phone, but being a small business owner myself I understand it too.
Been extremely happy with my FN Wheels and would buy them 100x again. Thinking about changing mine up though because everyone seems to have the Pro wheels. Whether OEM or their version.

Knockoffs?
I don’t think FN is making an attempt to look like something they are not. They openly communicate to their customers that the wheels are Konig wheels. I’ll gladly call them to get what I want.
Much different that the guy in the middle of the mall selling $585 womens purses for $65. Now thats a knockoff.

They are 17x8 rather than 17x7 They are 4.5" BS which is perfect for a 285 or 295 under the 4RUnner and maybe the Tacoma. They are said to be a stronger alloy and weight less than the OEM wheels. They use different lugs and a completely different center cap. Doesn't sound like a knockoff to me but we all have an opinion. Only thing I regret about the FX Pro wheels is buying them in gunmetal rather than black but I can live with that.

Why is the gunmetal not to your liking? Was thinking about gm on my 4Runner.

I emailed them and got a response within 24 hours. They included pix of a couple of extra styles. I think I'm going TRD oem--just for the ease of getting them installed by my dealer and just in case I need another one for some reason they will always be available.

I like them, just very little contrast against the MGM

the width and offset of them make them 1000x better then the OEM pro's IMO. looks good.
