Anybody out there running forgeline wheels? I just bought a set of the ls series two piece forged wheels and they are sick!! I got 17x9 for the front and 18x10 for the rear. I plan on running a 295/35/18 in the rear. I think they are one of the best wheels you can get right next to the fiske and HRE and simmons.

I'm not running them...yet. Maybe in 10 years. I like Forgeline, because they actually make 16x8 rims while every other forge wheel maker has a minimum size of either 17 or 18 inch. According to http://www.angelfire.com/my/fastcar/suspension.html, my factory Camaro 10 spokes are only 17 lbs. per wheel. Just imagine how lightweight forged 16x8 rims would be (and even lighter with the optional titanium fasteners and jet nuts). I'm guessing, at most, 15 lbs. per wheel?

17 lbs is what the magnesium C5 wheels weigh and they are a 1-piece casting. Forgeline makes light wheels-it does make a difference in handling and braking.
