Forgestar f14s for $1400 is a good price for forged wheels...Anyone know if they can do that price in a different style? I dont think those would look good on a Camaro :/

look bro it all depends what you are looking for.... like regular racing wheels to corvette wheels with you can get anywhere between 300-2000 bucks new and used. ur best bet it ebay they have numerous wheels available in different sizes i cna show you a few that dont cost over 600 and not many people run them i have had these wheels and they are great wheels. but then again everybody bitches about ebay wheels and so on.

search 5x120 wheels on ebay u should find some

Ebay has the 18x9.5 front and 18x12 rear on there now for $1360 shipped. Great deal for wheels that only weigh 19lbs front and 22 rear and will take a 335 tire.

Those two pics are the ones I have (I took the one of the pewter car). So I guess I don't need to post them.

The black ones look better. I still don't know though :/ They definitely look better on a T/A.

I have yet to see a 5x120 (BMW bolt pattern) wheel 11inches wide or wider, with a offset that will work on f-bodies...I'd love for someone to correct this though

I think that's a good deal, but not really the style I'm going for. I also think in the long run a 18x12 will be more expensive tire-wise as oppsed to a 17x11....not to mention will a 335 even fit on a lowered camaro?

Check out True Forged wheels too. They have good prices, and can build you whatever you want.

Will a 335 on a 18x12 fit on a lowered f-body with strano springs or should I go with a 18x11 rear and 315?

They took weeks to respond back to my email and quoted me about the same price as CCW for wheels with an "Fbody discount". Meh.
