Default Forgestar F14 Arrived today

I received some Forgestar F14's today. I will have them put on in a couple days. I tried the fitment tonight. They seem to fit well. Pictures always give some sort of weird view, but they look really good in real life. I have seen some black ones, but my set is the first I've seen in silver.

Note: I did not take all of the shipping plastic off the wheels yet, just checking fitment.

Those wheels in that silver color are going to look great on your car. Congrats on a good choice.

Keith (my sales guy) may have the exact weights ... and the offsets...I have asked that question, but did not get the answer. Forgestar makes the wheel when you order it and they have the measurements for the C7, they made these for me when I placed my order it took 5 weeks.

I tried to add Kieths email here but I guess the site automatically removes it or protects it. I will PM you with his address.

I got the TPMS valves today ... hopefully can get the tires on in the next couple of days ....
