My Forged Specialties Mesh Wheels

Chris_1 · 08-23-2010, 11:34 AM

Let me know if you guys are looking for a set, 3 piece forged wheels for pricing I truly must say is amazing. The only company with the same quality as everyone else, and nothing charging you body parts to get them haha.

Those look really nice!

Chris_1 · 08-23-2010, 12:16 PM

Let me know Fus, you know I will take care of you.

Chris,

Could you post the weights on here, i've been getting a few questions about them and i'm not 100% sure

NYBladeZ · 08-23-2010, 01:22 PM

I think it's just me but the tires make the wheels look smaller than 19"

Jeffblue · 08-23-2010, 01:27 PM

yea they are a little beefy. but i wanted to eat up some of the wheel gap and maintain a similar overall diameter to stock. The rears are the same size that come on the Nismo stock, and the fronts have only .15 inches more sidewall than stock.

dayam, look at that lip on the back!

Chris_1 · 08-23-2010, 03:58 PM

The car just needs a drop and it should hide the massive tires.

wishihadnav · 08-23-2010, 06:09 PM

looks good..yes the massive tires need to be hidden with a drop!

NYBladeZ · 08-23-2010, 06:19 PM

looks good man, I love the massive tires, hopefully with a drop it won't cause any rubbing issues...

as far as the massive tires and the drop, i'm probably gonna go with the Swift springs (if they come out soon enough) if not i'll go with H&R. but drop is definitely gonna happen.

The wheels are great quality. many thanks to Chris@wheelsdirectonline.com who put in so much effort in getting this done, and i think the result is fantastic. I really love the wheels and it was a pleasure to work with Chris and Forged Specialties. They are making their debut any day now so go check them out!

They are 19x9.5 with a 255/40/19 and 19x10.5 with a 285/35/19
wrapped in hankook ventus v12 evo's

the face is Hyperblack and the lip is polished aluminum (4.5 inch rear lip, 2 or 2.5 up front, i forget :P)

a drop will be coming at some point

now, pics

so i dont drive a 370 but i have the same mesh wheels comeing soon...chris was great and helped move everything along nicely... let me say those wheels look beautiful on you car!!!!! im seriously jealous mine arnt here yet

Chris_1 · 08-25-2010, 12:05 AM

Guys the wheels weight about 27lbs both front and rear. The reason is the back pad on the front wheel to clear the brakes and keep the wheel flat equals the weight of the rear. Its funny b/c i was confused when I put the wheels on the scale, b/c i thought I grabbed the same one twice.

By the way, WHATS UP Rali, I knew you couldnt keep away. I introduce to you guys my other customer Zach, ordered a set of forged specialties for his lancer and I have been telling him consistently to join the forum and see the wheels. He finally did it, and now he is jealous haha, Zach you are the man. Jeff I told you people are jealous of you.
