Forgestar F14's?
Anyone rocking these on their frs/brz? I've seen them on some show cars but I wanted to see what they looked like on an average joe car without the wings/bodykits etc.

I really like the looks of these but I'm wary of Forgestar from reading on a few forums that people have had issues with wheels bending easily and never balancing properly from the factory.

I've read the same about some balancing issues, they aren't incredibly expensive but for what they cost there shouldn't be any problems. I think their service is generally pretty good but have heard stories as well about having a hard time with warranty claims. ModBargains is a big dealer for them hopefully they can chime in here.

I ordered mine back in December. Hopefully it will arrive next month, crossing my finger. I'll post pics once I put them on my car.

My buddy has a set of Forgestars, they have been perfect since he opened them about a year ago. For the price, not much beats them.

Wow, I was looking to get this wheel for my Boss and FR-S. This thread and some research just killed my interest.
