WOW!!! that is amazing. Finally a picture of a FRS with nice size chrome lip. Awesome. You wouldn't happen to have some more pictures of the car on some F/5? That's more of my taste.

Beautiful! These in 18 would be perfect. I would also like to see pics of the other designs on a frs/brz and know weight/offset...

No custom wheel manufacture will not release offsets.

Looks great. Are we looking at $1000+ per wheel? These would awesome for my DD wheels and then get some super lightweight 17's for track days.

Do these just fit or some camber adjustments needed to be set? If so which parts were replaced to enable the adjustments and any fender rolling?

Looks great but this looks like it'll rub if you go over a bump?? Looks like there is no room for the suspension to compress since the tire is already sitting on the fender.

Msrp for the 19" are 1350 and 1250 for the 18". We can offer you great pricing under this. These wheels are not for everyone.

Our customer has had them on for a few weeks now without issues. Also, this setup requires having a coil over setup installed.

WTF? Why would the offset be a secret? That makes no sense at all. Ridiculous.

I like the rims, but Im not a fan of the fitment.... and there is no way that it doesnt rub sometimes.

Forgedwheelsource.com is a dealer for these wheels and i believe since they're custom made the offset is user set within specific parameters.

Yeah, I get it... but we have all those pretty pictures and can't get someone in the know to fess up the offset? Seems strange, that's all.
