Oh cruel fate, why must I be tormented?

After weeks of waiting for them to be made, my Forgestar F14's showed up today...but I cannot get them mounted anytime soon as I am scheduled for 12 hour shifts each day over the next 5 days....the agony.

Sorry for the phone pic:

Tell me about it, waiting is painful. But hopefully by Thursday they should be mounted.

broknindarkagain, you can get them directly from Forgestar. I personally got them from Eric at getyourwheels.com for $1799 shipped which was the best price around for F14's in 20x9. Cool thing about them is you can specify the offset you want, since they are made to order and are light. Only 26lbs for the 20x9.

All mounted. Good pictures to come once the weather clears up. In case anyone is interested they are 20x9 +38mm offset. General G-Max AS-03 245/25/20. Could have gone a bit more aggressive on offset by a few mm but overall very happy and 1000x times better than stock.












Now to sell my old OEM wheels.....

Thanks for the compliment on the wheels.

Actually it was not that bad. $1799 shipped for the wheels and paid $775 (after rebate) for the tires mounted/balanced w/tax and rebuild kit for the TPMS. Could have saved a little more on the tires if I got them online, but wanted to get them local. So about $2500 for everything. Just sold my OEM tires for $450 and am going to eBay my flawless OEM 19" wheels, so that should offset the upgrade a bit.
