Default New wheels on the way!

Ordered a set of Forgestar F14s the other day. Can't wait for them to arrive , this is the most I've ever spent on a single mod before...I'll update this thread once I get them mounted on.

Shout out to Frank@Modbargains for hooking it up with the labor day sale!

*Update*
I'm still waiting on the nicer pictures that were taken, but for the meantime heres two pics I took with my phone.






Lowered on swifts
19x9.5 +22
19x11 +23
Stock tires for now..thinking about 255/40 front and 285/35 rear, any other suggestions *that won't throw off the speedo much*?

I think you're supposed to make a thread AFTER you have them installed

+1 on what size/offset did you choose

I'd at least go with a 295 tire rear. Will look a lot better.

tasty, 285 may be a bit small for a 11 inch rim. Might have issue with blowing the beads and loosing air. Rims look nice brother.

Thanks all

How does a 265/35, 305/30 setup sound, I plan on tracking so would this setup cause much understeer?
