Thanks I was really worried about fitment, they seem spot on.

Finally got the Forgelines on. They are 18x10.5" with 56mm offset. I used 5mm spacers in the rear. 295/35/18 Nitto Invos all around.

I really like them, but the car needs a repaint and brake upgrade.

For when we race and the occasional short trip around town.




And when we go on long road trips or might expect rain.




We have about the same invested in the entire set of street wheels and tires as we do just ONE race wheel.

I got them from WS6 store

[QUOTE=t_raven;19308108]It took me 7 years to decide on a wheel I think would look good on my 01 TA. I hate that 95% of the cars on here either have some Vette wheel, CCWs, Fikses, and the occational TTIIs.

I ordered some forgelines a couple months ago. They finally shipped them and sent some pics. I won't be home to put them on until August. Waiting sucks.

They are SO3Ps, 18x10.5 +56 all around, and I'll be putting 295/35/18 Nitto Invos on them. I wasn't home to measure for fitment, but after a lot of reading on here, I found a few guys that are running Vette wheels in that size and offset on all 4 corners. I was tempted to get them with a deeper lip in the rear and narrow the axle I'm building for it, but I decided to keep a "square" set up so I can rotate them, and if I ever sell them, they'll fit any 4th gen with a stock axle. So I hope they fit and I don't have to send them back to be re-hooped lol.

I'll report back when they are on the car. They turned out better than I expected. These are mine, not a stock photo.

SICK wheels. Did you ever put these on? Pics?

HioSS, where did you find SSR wheels that actually fit our cars? Everything I find is 5x114 bolt pattern.

That explains it, I wish they still made those in our bolt pattern. I'm sure you are very attached to them after owning them for so long, but if you ever want to get rid of them let me know

Won't the bmw bolt pattern work on fcars?

I probably won't be getting rid of them. They are a super high quality wheel abd they only weigh about 18lb each. Which is pretty good for a 18x9.5
