Forgestar F14F's First on G37 Coupe??

First let me say thank you again to Ucla Bruin. I ordered he wheels from Bruin and he answered any questions I had and kept me updated through the whole process. Wheels are Forgestar F14F's 20x8.5 front and 20x10 rear. My offsets are unknown at the time so don't ask. Forgestar asked me a bunch of info on my set-up then custom made the offsets for my set-up. No more talk, here are a few pictures from the first day. I still have to play with it, I am rubbing pretty hard in the rear and slightly in the front on the wheel liner. Tires are 245/35/20 and 275/30/20. Work performed at Elite Importz in Laurel, MD who I would highly recommend.

Looks real good but you're gonna have to go with a streched tire set up unless you are on coilovers?

I am on coils. Raised it up slightly and shaved the bumper bracket some more. Going to go get the camber adjusted tomorrow

8.5 and10 are the only options for this wheel. Probably why no one has gotten them before. I almost went 10 all the way around but I wanted staggered

unofficially weighed them on the crappy scale at my house. Came in between 22 and 25lbs a wheel. Shipped weight was recorded as 28lbs through ups. So i figure 25 + 3lbs of shipping material.

Congrats bro ! That's the downside of going with top secret offsets that you have to unfortunately experiment with tires. Looks nice, give us some proper shots when it's all done.

A few pictures from a meet last weekend.




Rubbing issue is mostly resolved. Rear is now fine. Trimmed the bumper bracket off and pop riveted it back in place. Perfect solution! In the front I only rub on a big dip on a back road. Other than that no more rubbing problems.
