Right now, they are pretty backed up so the wait time is expected to be about 4 weeks + shipping time. It could be longer though. I will be honest with you.
Forgestar is a great company and I have had zero problems with them and their service so far has been excellent. They released wheels that have a huge following and as of recently they've been flooded with orders so I don't blame them for falling behind in production, it happens. So, even if the wait time is longer than expected its still worth it and in the end you get a great looking fairly lightweight wheel for a great price. -Chris

Oh, and you can start here if you'd like to read up on a few of the problems we have seen.
Forgestar Rims Don't get me wrong, Mike at DDM (the silver Z in your pics in the op), has had a great experience with the few sets of wheels he ordered originally, but so far he is the only 370z owner that has been happy with what he has gotten. Shift finally got his wheels last week I believe, and he ordered June 1st. Mine are at least another week away, AT LEAST, and I ordered June 8th...

I think it's fair to share our experiences with this manufacturer (not at all pertaining to ElementMotorsport) for anyone that is looking into this wheels to be aware of the current state of Forgestar orders.
Element, feel free to PM me if you want me to clean up the posts, I really mean nothing towards you, I'm just sick and tired of Forgestar and their BS they've been feeding me over the last 3 months.

Caravanshaka - I actually did read that thread. I feel bad for the problems some people have had but my experience has been great so far with Forgestar and my customers are happy with the product.

So if i were to make an order w/ you for some F14s today... and paid in full... What is the MOST time you are willing to guarantee the wheels will arrive by? I can live w/ +/- 1 week as these are made to order -but if I am in limbo for longer than that - its kinda not worth it for me - Let me know please...

vendor is at the manufacturer's mercy, so they have no control over the timing. That being said, forgestar says no refunds since they are custom made. Once you ask for your money back, the vendor gets stuck paying the bill.

The only wheels I feel comfortable with time frame wise is Work or SSR. The last 5-6 sets I have ordered came in almost on the exact day they told me. Give or take 1-2 days. My suggestion is that if you really like the wheels, make arrangements to be prepared for a longer wait time. If you can't wait that long, then there are plenty of wheel choices out there to consider -Chris
