how long will the 20's take to be made? hopefully the insurance people paid for the current wheels right now. *crosses fingers*

Agree with this. Looks good but with a wheel of this design, I really think it needs to be in 20.

Guys the 20" are still in development. I would say about 2-3months for anything to be ready to shoot in a photostudio for images.

We stopped by the FORGESTAR offices last week, and saw the product in person. The F-05 looks ALOT better in person than it does in pics.

We also took the oppurtunity to put a wheel on the scale, and here's what we got:

19x10" wheel - 22.4lbs

Excellent for such a cost effective 1pc wheel!! Also there is a new wheel style that we will be debuting VERY soon.

I think you guys will like it alot!

Hey Derrick,
Is there a clearcoat on the wheel or is it bare metal that needs metal polish to keep it looking good?

Hey Reg, I missed this before. They are clearcoated, so soap and water will keep them nice. Maybe a little wheel wax when you really want to "spiff them up"

Yeah, I liked the F14 from the moment I saw the prototype wheel.

When the 20" sizing comes online, the FORGESTAR line is really going to take the market by storm.
