Wasn't trying to be a downer, just wanted you to be aware, before pulling the trigger. I guess it's too late. I was trying to say that the wider wheels in lower offsets can no way be lighter than the higher offset of the same wheel from my first post.

haha. man you killed my wheel high. I thought I had actually found a near perfect alternative to the RPF1. Total buzz kill you were!

It's no worries man. It's just the way the world goes 'round sometimes. The distributor I bought them from said this isn't the first time and that he has personally asked Forgestar to take the info down from their site. They refuse. I solely relied on it for the purchase though, so I may or may not pursue it. We'll see. Depends on time, interest, etc...

I appreciate you posting it up though. I really do. Thanks.

You ordered the Forgestars, not iForged ($$$), right?

iForged doesn't give out offsets, or used to not, and I think I remember you posting about some offset in the 20s.

edit - you said +25

I was trying to do something different than the usual rims also while keeping it light. The TC105 was the runner up, but I didn't want to go too aggressive in offset. I ended up with XXR 527 the 18x9.75 +20 weighs 21.8, the size down 8.75 +20 weighed 20.6.
