Should I Pull the Trigger?

[06GTEleanor]

I have the opportunity to buy some very slightly used Forgestar F14's. They are 18x9.5. They have a 36mm offset. Whats the max I should pay for them? Does 1k sound like a good deal?

Its not a bad deal, if they are in good shape. They will run you about 1300 or so new ..

Thanks for the Input. I've looked around and the cheapest I could find them was 1400$. Its not a great deal by any means.

yeah thats a solid deal, as said if theyre clean. when I ran SVE drifts they were a pretty aggressive fitment, they were 9.5" wide with a +35mm so figure these will fit about the same, theyll look nice man. Im just not a fan of an 18" wheel on our big ass cars

So I picked them up. Ended up getting them for even less. Now what tire should I run. It looks like ill be running a 285/40-18 on all four corners. What kind of tire is good for all season driving?

Continental DWS and Michelin pilot sport A/S3 are good all season tires, but only the A/S3 comes in 285/40/18

Asking about pricing is not tech.

I think it has to do with section names. People try to match a section with their year vehicle. I bet if this section was named 05-14 General Discussion, S197 General Discussion or something like that there would be way less derp posts lol

36mm offset will look like crap. You want them with a 41mm offset. I have a friend selling a set of smoke or grey or whatever color they are 18x9.5's with some new Hankook V12's (275's). PM if you want more info.
