They look nice but I'm sure they cost an arm and a leg.

Then have TG pay for it. :tease2:

I've been looking at the Forgestar F14 wheels ever since TX_STIG got them for his 2010 (that's his car in the pic above). I think it would be a great way to obtain a set wheels that replicate the SVTPP wheels without spending the $1800 or so (edit: per wheel) that the real SVTPP wheels supposedly cost. I think I'd like to have a set of 20s in the back and 19s in the front. With the Forgestars you'd be able to go wider in the rear as well.

If you google around for info though, you run into reports of shoddy finish (flaking, poor coverage, etc...) on the Forgestar wheels. Don't know if that is still the case today though.

The F14s are my #1 choice for aftermarket wheels ... in a Titanium finish. They are around the same cost as the Alcoas and are offered in a wide choice of sizes, widths and offsets.

Yes those are nice, do you know of any center cap options, will some SVT's fit? The Forgestar one that comes with the wheels looks like the two Seahorses...:doh2:

If you work hard enough you'll eventually find a set for much less than that. I found a complete set of wheels/tires for a '11 SVTPP that were never even installed on a car, not even on the assembly line.

Sweet!

You going to send your set of '10's back to :canada:

You have a very good memory JT.

Actually, they'll be on their way to Alabama shortly. I sold the set of 2010 coupe wheels/tires for $1,500, which I think is fair given current market prices. I'll miss 'em!
