New wheels on the way!
 
Ordered a set of Forgestar F14s the other day. Can't wait for them to arrive :D, 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*?

should look good :tup: in for results!

Size?

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

+1 on what size/offset did you choose

scionide 11-06-2012 12:45 AM

Figured I'd wait until I finally got the wheels before I kept bumping the thread, update on first post!

Wow! Those look great. Size/offset?

Soooo jealous....congrats and nice pick!

SPOHN 11-06-2012 06:54 PM

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

Nut_N_Much 11-06-2012 06:58 PM

:yum: 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.

scionide 11-06-2012 10:12 PM

Thanks all :)

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

Great choice.... These are very nice!

I had a set of gold Forgestars on my BMW 135i. They are terrific wheels, but with the custom offsets, I had a big problem when I had an accident and destroyed two wheels. Forgestar had a three month order backlog, so I ended up having to move to a new set of wheels. Hence, it may not be a bad idea to buy an extra front and rear wheel. Great choice!
