Item Interest

I have a set of 19x8.5 (+32) 19x10 (+38) Forgestar F14’s in gunmetal for sale. Also included are the TPMS sensors and Hankook V12 Evo’s 235/35 front, 265/30 rear. I’d say the tires have about 30% left on them.

The wheels are in decent shape. One of the rims developed a 1” crack on the inside of the barrel in early 2011, but had this professionally repaired by a wheel shop and have not had any issues since. Also, one of the rear tires was replaced last year, so that one has about 90% tread left. The reason I’m selling is that I want to sport a new look after having these for a few years.

I’m looking for $1,300 picked up obo. I’m located in western MA (springfield area) and am willing to meet up somewhere up to an hour away. Right now I’m not looking to ship them due to size and weight.

Here's a picture of the wheels on the car. I will get individual pics of the rims this weekend



Thanks,
Fred

Edit - this was my 335th post haha

bump for some pictures. there were taken when the sun was shining on them, so they are brighter than they usually are on a car. They do look phenomenal when the light hits them right though.



Left rear




Right rear




I noticed that there's a very slight bend in the lip (it's not even noticeable looking directly at it, only visible from an angle like the one above). The wheel is still in balance, there is no wobbling, and it does not affect performance.

Would these fit on an e92 with coilovers?

[redfred18t]

yes, they should fit without any problems.

bump - additional pictures of the tire tread (the fronts and left right are actually in really good shape, right rear still has quite a bit of life left). Also included are pictures of the repair that was made and the only chip I found on the wheels (right rear)

sad to see these go, but they are sold!

[forever_speed]

just a question, do you know how much these weigh? I'm looking into getting a set. Whats your new set up?

[redfred18t]

I dont remember the exact weight, but they were fairly light for 19's. I picked up a set of 18" vmr 701's, which I feel like are somehow heavier lol

Forged wheels are lighter than gravity cast. The weight differnce is based on the construction. these forgestar wheels are better quality than VMR wich are heavier

[redfred18t]

Despite the name, I dont think forgestars are actually forged.

My understanding is that the centers are forged, barrels are not.

lol how can the face be forged but not the barrel? They are "spun forged" which isn't true forging. It is very strong and light, though.

Aside from the bad wheel, this is a good deal!

EDIT: woops, sold.
