**********s | GOLD FORGESTARS F14's CHECK IT OUT!!!!!!!

Hey Guys,

Check out the new finish coming from Forgestar!





Available Offsets and Sizes
  • 18x8.5 offsets from +26 to +50
  • 18x9.0 offsets from +20 to +55
  • 18x9.5 offsets from +26 to +60
  • 18x10.0 offsets from +16 to +42
  • 18x11.0 offsets from +23 to +55
  • 18x12.0 offsets from +36 to +68
  • 19x8.5 offsets from +26 to +48
  • 19x9.0 offsets from +20 to +50
  • 19x10 offsets from +20 to +45
  • 19x11 offsets from +23 to +55


Why Forgestar Wheels are Better Than Cast Wheels
  • Custom Offsets - Forgestar wheels can be made in virtually any offset, whereas standard cast wheels come in a set offset. This allows you to dial in exactly how you want your wheels to sit (we can help you select the offset you need for the look your looking for). Having custom offsets allows for fitment of wider wheels in stock suspension and lowered vehicles. Forgestar wheels are designed specifically for your car and it's suspension setup, where cast wheels are designed for everyone and typically do not take in to account lowered suspension setups.

  • Weight - Forgestar wheels are also much lighter than cast wheels. A cast wheel of this same size would weigh anywhere from 23-27 lbs. This saving of roughly 6-10 pounds per wheel makes a BIG difference in regards to handling and drivability. Reducing unsprung weight (weight that is not supported by the car's suspension, i.e wheels, tires, brake rotors, and brake calipers) is one of the easiest ways to improve your car's handling, braking, and acceleration. As a general estimate 1 pound of unsprung weight is equal to 10 pounds of static weight. (weight that is supported by the vehicle's suspension). By using this ratio if you were to replace your stock wheels that weighed 25 lbs with Forgestar wheels you would be saving 320 lbs. in static weight!

  • Strength - Flow-formed wheels are similar in strength to that of a fully forged wheel, without the cost. The process used to make the Forgestar wheels is the same process BBS wheels uses as well.

  • Range of Sizes - Forgestar wheels are available in a multitude of sizes, allowing you to decide exactly what diameter and width you want to run on your vehicle, rather being forced to run a set staggered size with cast wheels (As cast wheels usually are only available with one set front wheel width, and one rear wheel width)

**********s has exclusivity on Forgestar F14 in 18" for all BMW fitments.

I am really liking these but I don't think it would work with the white/black theme of my car. I may still pick up a set in piano black though...strongly considering it

I was so close to getting in on the Apex group buy, but am so glad that I ended up not doing it. I think these will look fantastic on white! Spring needs to get here so I can justify buying these.

Bump for more information!

Are these still available? Has anyone purchased a set yet? It'd be a tough decision to get these or the V710's in Competition Gold.

Any pictures on a car?

Sorry guys i havent been on here in a while, the 18" F14's in Gold are only offered in a Powdercoated Gold option, here is the MBZ that Garduna was referring to.





Here are the ones that we did for an E90!
