Forgestar CF10s, finished in brushed titanium.

Non brembo car, not sure about the offset. They were custom made in sizes 20x10 and 20x11. Front i did a 275/35, rear i went with a 295/35. Car is currently on FRPP springs. I've got coilovers in the garage that need to go on ASAP so i can slam this thing. :beerdrink:

I posted a picture of your car on my facebook and everyone loved it. . . who did you go through to get those wheels, I may just have to start saving now lol

I like those CF10's, they look good on the front.
20x10/11 is a nice setup.

Couple of old pics. :)

I went through howey industries. Paul is great to deal with. However i must warn you that you will wait a long time for these. They only require a 50% deposit so if you have it, i would put that down and get the ball rolling. Also, the brushed titanium is not a standard finish, so i had to pay more for it. I think it was $50 per wheel.


On a side note, there is a high probability of me selling these wheels in a couple months for something else lol. Right now i am LOVING them, but i get bored and switch shit up a lot :beerchug2:

Yea, i had waited so long on those things that i didn't even want them anymore. I had found another set-up i wanted to do. But once i got them, i had to put them on lol.

Lol okay. And i'll find out if they'll fit brembos for you.

well done brown! that's how a mustangs wheel wells should be filled. good move on the 20x10 front. there's room for it, so why not fill it? looks like the front wheel is nice and concave like the rear too. lots of win!

Here's my 18x10 Forgestar Titanium F14's w/ 285/40 Cont Extreme Contact DW's on all four. Now posting these is a bit of a dilemma because posting pictures is all about looks and this setup had appearance far from a priority. The appearance won't be for everyone. It was about finding a great blend of performance, comfort and practicality. It's a very light weight setup both wheels and tires and can be rotated since they are not staggered. Also the beefier sidewall gives both good grip and comfort. And these tires are very comfortable and quiet. In terms of my lowering...again, practical + performances. It's a Prokit + koni STR.Ts. Not slammed by any means..basically just got it to how it should have come from the factory. If I wanted to stay with the looks only I would have kept my 20" Boss 338's which looked amazing but were boat anchors, and put sport lines on it. With all that said I am still happy with the way it looks and its oh so nice to drive.

Also note: Pics str8 from the camera, no touch ups and it's a bit dirty too and had just rained, but at least after all this time I finally took some pics lol.

There's nothing lightweight about Forgestar wheels. I find their name super misleading since they don't really use a true forging process.

With that said, that finish is really nice--what offset are those wheels?

I think any where from a 35 to 45 would work. I run a 19x10 with a 285 and have a 38 offset on mine.

Thanks man. Sorry, I don't as of yet, but will try and post some soon.

No it's not a true forging process but has similar results for a lot less money then most forged wheels. And I'm not sure why you don't think they are light?? These wheels are only 21lbs each (on a certified scale) which is very respectable for an 18x10 wheel. The offset is +42 on all 4 corners. Can't fit center caps on the fronts but I knew that going in. There is ways to get them on though.

Oh and whatcanbrowndo4u that car is gorgeous!

18x10 at 21lbs is not really light. A light 18x10 should weigh in around 18lbs--especially for the money you're paying. Of course if weight wasn't an issue then who cares. All I'm saying is that nobody should buy forgestars thinking they are getting a lightweight wheel for their money because that's just not true.
