Talking Wheel Directory: Forgestar F14 18x8.5 +38/18x9.5 +38



Hey guys this is my review of staggered Forgestar F14s.

FRONT: 18x8.5 +38
REAR: 18x9.5 +38

Tire Front: Bridgestone Potenza 970AS 235/40-18
Tire Rear: Bridgestone Potenza 970AS 265/35-18

Lug Nuts: Volks Rays Black Lugs 12x1.25

Wheels Both Weigh in at 19.2 pounds but im not worried about the weight , IM SOLEY GOING FOR THE LOOKS and i think i pulled it off haha

** Im Running on Stock Height, Springs, etc Not Planning on Dropping the car because i use this as a Daily Drivers Car and when winter comes around clearance will def be an issue **

- Please dont comment with Moar LOW !!! because im not a fan of a seriously dropped car

- these tires and wheel size in particular have no rubbing or fitment issues, i was told from many people that i would rub and some of which said i would be fine, i took the risk and everything worked out just as planned and i could even go with a 275 tire in the rear if i wanted to without rubbing

- i know the tires do poke in the rear and some in the front but i rather it poke than rub and not fit. i actually like that it pokes out a little, gives it a wider look

PLEASE COMMENT WITH THOUGHTS QUESTIONS OR ANYTHING, LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK OF THIS SETUP AND IF YOU WOULD ROCK IT YOURSELF!

Looks very very good. I can honestly say that some wheel gap looks more natural than no gap at all. Function > form. Has a nice bit of poke

Damn didn't think the SP Elite would sound like that. Sounds mean just like mine.. Car looks sick on these photos and on a bigger screen man. Especially at stock height like ST185RC said.

Can't wait to take photos with the professional camera ! The sound is so mean , not ricey at all and not as quiet as everyone makes it seem, at idle is low but when u get on it , it sounds beautiful

that's why i love GReddy because the exhausts don't have any rasp or ricey sound in them throughout all rpm levels
