I like the look of both the V715 and the Beyerns but I heard that you would have to roll your fenders if you get the V715. I havent heard anything about the Beyerns tho.

WishBone33 · 04-16-2009, 03:04 PM

Does anyone know if the beyerns will rub or need fender cutting/rolling?

The rears of both those rims are pretty equal but someone had the Beyerns with 245/35/19 tires and they lowered it and said there is no rubbing.. I am trying to get that config...

I am seriously considering getting these, as they make them in custom offsets for each customer so you can go as aggressive or conservative as you want, they are light, they look incredible, and you cant get them for less than $1500. I dont know if anyone has them yet on this site though, so you gotta imagine what it would look like on our cars.

They do look nice tho

Schn3ll · 04-17-2009, 05:43 AM

So Forgestars have custom and standard offsets, or all they all custom made? $1500 is a steal if that is for the customs and I would even think about getting on board. But you know what they say, if it sounds too good to be true...

ptack · 04-17-2009, 08:22 AM

If what you're saying is true - that you can get a set of 4 custom-made wheels for less than $1500, we will build a shrine in your honor.
On the other hand, the Forgestars are made per-order (not to-order) in a wide variety of offsets including some high offsets, but only in 19". They do have the perfect range of offsets for the rear on a 19x9, but not quite as perfect for the front on 19x8.5. Still, it's the closest thing yet to ideal, stock offsets.

Posting links to these sites may not be in the TOS, so mods feel free to delete them if thats true. Those are 3 sites that sell that wheel for less than $1500, and thats after only 5 minutes of looking, so they can be had for a good deal.
