You can put any finish on these wheels, thats why they are so great. They are the best priced wheel for what they are, they fit perfect, any color, any bolt pattern and dimension.

Idk what other info you need/want but i have no problem helping.

Forgestar wheels are not 3 piece, they're 1 piece monoblock except the F14F which is a 2 piece modular forged wheel. Forgestars like the F14, CF10, and CF5 are all spun forged (also referred to as rotary forged - same process).

Forgestar doesn't necessarily advertise as such, but we can indeed to off colors to your specs if you have a particular color in mind. I've had customers do lime green or even hot pink.

They're very reliable, great strong wheels, with a high load rating. Since they're spun forged, the barrel of the wheel will be the strongest, which is often where wheels crack, bend or break, so you get the best where you need it, but at a lower cost. Typically sets range between $1300-$1600 between 18"s and 19"s, and higher for 20"s.

Forgestars are absolutely amazing, and are currently being installed on this Rocket Bunny kit (Taken from this thread - http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=13374):

















Obviously the wheels were made before the Rocket Bunny kit, but Forgestar can make them per your specs so that it fills out the wheel wells, no problem. Another reason why we like to show off that we're Forgetars largest distributor
