Keep in mind that this textured finish isn't standard in-stock. It adds about $200 to the price, for those of you wanting to stay under a certain budget.

ProStreet, I got your email and replied last week.

200 for the set or 200 extra a wheel? If its the former, then I would say its a small price to pay for how awesome they look.

I would assume $200 per set. $50 per wheel makes more sense. Agreed though small price to pay and I would also think the textured finish makes them easy to keep clean.

I think they won a long battle Ive had over CCWs and C5 DD. C5 DDs work well on my college kid budget but waiting until I graduate for CCWs is too much of a tease. Forgestars give a great balance between OE replicas and high quality forged. They will also work great for a BBK which Ive always wanted to do.

Keep in mind those 19s on my car were intended for auto-x. Customer was out of town, wanted some photos of them since his car is also gray. All four wheels/tires are the same size/offset, so he could rotate them. The tires shown are 2" shorter than stock, which makes them light and cheaper.

$50/wheel for the coating Tran.

I'm pretty sure my 5th gen has has more different wheels on it than any other 5th gen.

The 18x9 is a "semi-concave" it is what I have on my car. It is not available in a deep concave setting, you have to go to an 18x10 for that. Or a 19x9.5(F) and whatever 19 you want in the rear

LOL @ Moron.

I had F14 wheels on a 2010 Camaro before Ford ever put a similar wheel on a Mustang. If anything, Ford copied the numerous mesh-spoke wheels on the market. Quit giving Ford any credit for being original, they aren't.

I was wondering if he was the owner of the wheels and sarcasm. Or if he was being serious
