WTB True Forged Wheels 18's

[tached_out]

Looking to buy a set of true forged wheels that are used and in good condition. If any one knows any where I can get some please point me in the right direction. Preferably I am looking for Chicans and black

If no one has any True Forged wheels available, I might be selling my Forgelines if you're interested.

The girl in the sig's name is Shay Laren btw.

thanks you so much not for the offer but telling me who she is...how would would you want for them and do you have any pics..

Haha no problem man. Thanks for having her as your sig.

I'm looking for like $2200 or so, with tires. Mine are 19's with 275/35 and 295/35 BFG KDW2's. Perfect size/offset for the '05+ body style and still enough sidewall that you can hook great. Tires might need replacing before too long, but the wheels retail for $1100 a piece...so it's kind of a wash lol.

Here's some pics:

very tempting but they may not go with my car and the two piece would be hard to paint. if they were black 18's i would buy them now... let me do some thinking and im going to call forged line about sending them to get painted.

Actually the wheels are a full 3-piece design. You can disassemble them and have them painted and reassembled pretty easily. Are you in SoCal? I see that Adam did your tuning so I thought I'd ask. I'm in SoCal, so if you're local you can check em out if you want. I even have a shop that can do the paint work for you.

i live up in fresno i can actually get them painted to match my car black pearl for free. What is the weight on the wheels?

 

[Kris_H]

Right on man. I'm not sure on the exact weight, but I want to say they're roughly between 17-20lbs without tires. VERY light wheels, but super strong as well. I took a 40mph impact on one (it's been replaced) a few years ago and it just flaked the powdercoating on the spokes and scuffed the lip a bit.

i cant seem to find a drag radial though in a 19 i think lake of tire options might be a bad thing with 19's

 

[Kris_H]

Yeah there are little to no drag radial options. For a sticky tire, your best bet would be these:

They have plenty of 19" options, but they're more for road racing.

Is this your car Kris? Damn that is nice, you need to post up some pics of your ride in the Pictures / Videos section. Did you already and I just missed it?

Yeah, there are some pretty good DR options now for 18 inch, and Nitto even has some for 20 inch wheels, but I haven't seen anything for 19.

 

[Kris_H]

Haha yeah, that is my car. Well...it was my car in '05. It's been redone twice since. I'll PM you some pics of how it looks now. Building it up for the SEMA show again.
