New Forgestars, wrong offsets?

cgust

Check the rims and boxes again. How are the offsets not listed? I just got new wheels (not this brand) but it is clearly on the box and the engraved on the inside of the wheels. I would think this is common practice for wheel makers...

Lack of facts. No actual offsets. Makes it hard to help.

Not the forums fault. You're lucky people aren't giving you a hard time for not using the search feature to educate yourself on offsets/wheel fitment.

Or saying that you should have done that before buying.

Good luck to you.

asdfsammich, look, I came here because I know a lot of you guys are very experienced and thought that someone may have any idea whether or not the pictures I posted looked reasonable or not and clearly explained why I don't know the actual offsets (as much as I would like I cannot change a companies business practices). I spoke at length with my vendor before purchasing the wheels and he assured me that the right offsets would be delivered (I am no expert even after I read these forums about fitment so I gave him tons of info, my ride height, desired tire size, etc. and trusted that a wheel vendor would know better than I, which I don't think is unreasonable).

Furthermore, you cannot deny that not once did I say I was going to lower my car and responses to this post claimed that I had. I don't think it is unreasonable to be annoyed when people ignore what I say or claim that I said things that I didn't.

Once again, to the few who have given helpful advice, I very much appreciate it!

You should be annoyed at yourself for not doing your homework.

I'm out.

OP, I'd go with ckiesz's route. I have not seen my own wheels while the car is lifted so I am unable to compare with your photos.

webstdave

Thanks cgust I will try that for sure.

Those rims come in the following ranges. You should have probably told them what you wanted.

SEMI CONCAVE
19"

19x9.0 offsets from +20 to +55

SUPER DEEP CONCAVE
19"

19x10 -19 to +31

webstdave

Seriously? You just posted available offsets for Forgestar CF10s semi concave and deep concave when I clearly stated I bought F14s in semi concave and super deep concave. This is exactly what I am talking about when I say people don't read my posts. Either way, has anyone criticizing me considered that maybe Forgestar simply messed up rather than jump to the incorrect conclusion that I just blindly ordered offsets that I know to be wrong?

jlo370z

so what offsets did you order?

LOL, I am going to assume you are being sarcastic and not serious with that question. If you are being serious, please go back and read the rest of this thread.

ckiesz

If you want to measure the backspacing of the wheels (hub mounting flange to very rear most lip of the wheel) and the overall width (should be 9.5-10" for a 9" rim and 10.5-11" for a 10" rim) it's pretty easy to figure the actual offset. Post it up or PM me if you'd like, happy to help.

No I read your post right. Just copied the wrong information. Sorry for living.

You sure have a crappy attitude for someone looking for help.

ckiesz

I'm gonna assume you quoted the wrong post because: I am offering help, had a good attitude when I posted, and have absolutely no problem with you living

W.O.W. 370Z

I wouldnt buy the spacers you are interested in.

I think it will sit flush once mounted and sitting on the floor. I have a decent amount of experience with the Z and wheels.

Your attitude wont get much help here. Just my two cents.

Anyone use these spacers?
