Sorry for taking so long to respond, you guys have no idea how many times a day I have to answer the same questions about these Forgestars so here it goes....

Forgestar will not recommend an 18x10, if you look through our gallery the majority of those wheels were flush fitments set by Forgestar. Now if you are specific and know that this is the type of set up you want to run my order details will say that.

18x10 ....stretch tire set up and roll your fenders!

Leave it to Forgestar, they will provide you with a wheel with proper fitment that will clear your struts, wont rub, and can accommodate BBKs.

I just do not know what offset to run so it wont rubb with 235's in front and 255's rear Dunlop Star specs with stock suspension. The other issue is color. Flat black or gloss on a jet black 135. Too many choices
Great questions flow formed wheels that are the same technology as a BBS or Advan at $999.00 a SET Thats right!!! You know most custom wheels are like ridiculously priced.

i thought I remembered there being some lifetime warranty for these guys, or am I imagining things?
Going back to what I said earlier, I will advise you on fitment and place your requests, if Forgestar feels that for whatever reason that is not a set up they are comfortable doing, I will notify you. That would be a very extreme case. You were probably dreaming about the lifetime warranty haha

2) What is the recommended offset to fit 225s up front and 255s in the back for a 135i with stock suspension? I am looking for as flush a fitment as possible without doing any modification.

3) Do you offer a wheel/tire/tpms package?

Thanks.

I believe most of these questions were answered. PM or call me about the wheel and tire package.

The reason I ask is because a different brand 1 series specific wheel vender was saying 18x8.5 et38 up front and 18x9.5 et 62 on the rear is best for wide tires. Sorry I don't know much about wheel/tire fitment that's why I'm asking.

BTW the Matte black rims look incredible!
For my Forgestar orders that I have placed, if you are specific to those tire sizes I list that in the order details as well. Don't worry about asking questions like I said I'm here to help you guys out!

Just bought some non run craps though... 215/40 and 245/35 Yoko S Drives...which offset would work with those?
Good question, on your order I would tell Forgestar the tires you are running and they will determine that for you

They can get done in any offset, it does not mean we recommend it because et38 is really aggressive.

Guys,

Like I stated earlier, you have no idea how much detail goes into these orders. When I say custom wheels I am not messing around. These wheels are made for you car for perfect fitment. Look at all the offsets that Forgestar determined on my galleries. My customers who are specific to what offsets they want are usually Track / Race enthusiasts. If you concern is for looks and appearance to achieve that perfect fitment, Forgestar will make that happen for you.

Going back to details I practically tell Forgestar everything about your damn cars!

1) Make and Model
2) Wheel size that is desired
3) Specific Requested offsets (then I tell them why)
4) Current or future suspension modifications
5) Tire sizes that you plan to run

Like stated earlier CUSTOM WHEELS, CUSTOM OFFSETS for a GB price of $999

The pictures speak for themselves!

Seriously any questions CALL ME e-mail me Kevin************.com, I have a feeling ///M3AN ONE is getting bombarded with the same questions in his PM's and in these threads.

Thanks Everyone,

Kevin
