Nobody???

I know the custom ones may be made for the make of car, but they have *generic* bores that require hub rings.

I would ask Forgestar directly to confirm or talk to Vivid Racing since they carry them.

From the quick search I did your 74.1 figure looks like it's correct and was confirmed by another vendor that carries them

Thanks...I went ahead and ordered some 74.1s on e bay. I have 73s on my current wheels, which is the most common bore size for aftermarket wheels. It's gotta be one or the other, unless the ones I bought are custom bores!
I actually saw some Forgestar F14s on e bay recently that had custom Nissan bores on em!

I was wondering when someone was gonna take notice.
Well, couple reasons I guess. When I saw brand new F14s for sale here last week for $1000 SHIPPED, I took notice. Being a great looking wheel...I found it hard to resist. They also came 11" (+23) in the REAR ( but same as my 9.5 up front) and I was contemplating going to wider rims in the rear as well. I can still use my current tires too..that was key.
They are GUNMETAL and I think they'll look great on my Nogaro Red Z. Here's a pick of GUNMETAL wheel on a Z. Think mine will look even better with red car.



As far as my Konigs..I still like em and prolly wouldn't have swapped if this deal hadn't come along. By the time I sell em... net cost will be reasonable.

Yes..I don't want 19s because tires for them are expensive and I have brand new 18s now. Although 19s LOOK FANTASTIC, I don't like the harsher ride that comes with them as well. Also, performance isn't as good as 18s. Just a personal preference for me.
Enjoy those 19s...they gonna look friggin fantastic!

They're a good pick up... You already know how much I dislike your Konigs.

Oh yeah..there's a whole thread on it.
You really have to see these IN PERSON...photos give em a flat look and they're really concave. Like I said..I still like em, but the F14 deal was just to hard to pass up.

The F14's are MUCH nicer than those konigs. Good job Ron, hated those konigs on your car.

Lol like I said in that particular thread, I love wheels and I consider myself a wheel guy... Your not going to convince me to like the Konigs. On the other hand, I'm referring this thread to a friend of mine on the Forgestars.

I don't mind a little harsher ride, although the tires are only slightly shorter. Weight wise I still have my 18 stock wheels so I think it might actually be a small upgrade weight-wise.

Tires really aren't that much more, just some. The fact I'm going from 235/255 to 255/285 is a price increase for sure

I can't wait for mine to come in. Should be in plenty of time for zdayz

That was never gonna happen..ol' sayn' *haters gonna hate*
I wanted something different and the Zero Ins were definitely that.
Just for background...I was actually on the fence between Rota Torques and the Konigs. You can see how the Torques are a bit like the F14s. When i saw the pics of the F14s on the sale thread I fell in love with them.

Rota:


F14



They resemble the stock rims on my previous Cobalt SS Turbo:

Forgestar wheels come with a 74.1 center bore - hubrings are provided. Also, some of their newer wheels are coming with a 72 centerbore.

I just got the wheels. These were purchased from a thid party..brand new.
They do have hub rings included..funny the seller said none were present
Kinda weird though..the rings (metal) say 66.1 on one side and 75.0 on the other side, but they're the exact same size as plastic ones I got in advance which are 66.1 and 74.1! They also measure74. Anyway they fit the wheels..that's all that counts.
