Talking New Forgestar CF5 wheels on my 2010 SS

These are the first set of production Forgestar CF5 wheels built for a Camaro. As soon as they became available, I ordered this set. The Camaro has Pfadt drop springs. The car will be listed for sale on these wheels. Asking $40K as-shown. The car has quite a few mods, and 10K miles.

Forgestar CF5 flow-formed wheels Pricing Info
Textured Gunmetal Gray finish (new for 2011)
20x9 standard concave fronts with Nitto Invo 275/40-20 tires
20x11 standard concave rears with Nitto Invo 315/35-20 tires

And now for the photos everyone has been waiting on :thumbsup:

















These are almost a perfect match for cyber gray! I love them.

Why would you buy new wheels for a car you plan to sell?

The wheels look very nice btw.

I think its a good idea to market a car with wheels that no one has yet.

I am a dealer/distributor for about 25 brands of wheels. I use my car for promotional images for several companies. It sure doesn't hurt to make the car stand out a little when trying to sell them. It has always worked for me in the past! The factory wheels/tires are available, with a lower selling price. Not many buyers go that route with my vehicle sales.

Oh I can understand that I have seen your stuff sell very fast.

It was just the fact that you had so much already done to this car and I didn't know you sold wheels... So your not out as much as I thought .

Whoever buys this car is getting a deal... Car + mods + wheels would cost you a lot more then your selling it for. Good luck with the sell.

Looks real good. Tony is there any other new finishes for 2011?

edit: Nevermind I think I answered my own questions following your link to Camaro5. I really like that textured gunmetal gray, but I never really liked Gunmetal on NBM, hmmm.

CCW only sells direct. His pricing is pretty low compared to most forged wheel companies.

Nothing out of the ordinary. Just the one shown is new.
