Hello Guys,

We a direct dealer with Forgestar Wheels.

Forgestar Performance Wheels is proud to introduce the world's first one piece lightweight custom flow formed wheel lineup.
Flow Forming is a production procedure that turns the wheel (or rim section) over a special mandrel and three hydraulic rollers using tremendous pressure. The pressure and turning then force the rim area to form against the mandrel, creating the shape and width of the rim. During Flow Forming, the rim actually "flows" down to create the full rim width. During Flow Forming, pressure applied to the cast rim actually changes its mechanical properties, so its strength and impact values become similar to those of a forged rim. That translates to up to 15% less weight when compared to a standard cast wheel. Our technological breakthroughs in heat treating allow us to increase dent resistance without having to make the wheel heavier.

do you do a tire and rim package? I am interested in teh F14, but not sure what offset and such to use.
Click to expand...

If you want flush fitment I would use the following:

Front: 265/40/22 22x9 et 30
Rear: 265/40/2 22x9 et 20

I have the 30 offsets all around and the rear can use another 10 mm to be perfect. If you ever plan to slam your car, you will need your fenders rolled with this setup. Good luck.
 
Wider tires mean less mpg, follow ruts on road etc.. Looks great and better handling however. Use my specs to dial in a 10.5 rim. Search for a rim and tire calc.

What are the pros and cons I getting the 22x9 vs the 22 x10.5?
Click to expand...

Cons - more weight, less mpg bc of it, more expensive tire if going wide, worse traction in snow or rain, more steering feel if on fronts.

Pros - better traction on dry, can get a wide tire for a great look.

I'd go no more than 10" wide on front.
 
Chedman: Why would it be worse traction in snow or rain for the 10 inch vs. 9? Shouldn't 10inch have more traction just because there is more contact area from the tire to the ground? Just a bit confused. Thanks!
 
Thinner tires cut through snow and rain. More surface area = more probability to hydroplane or slip.

In dry, you want a large contact area. Tire on wet roads or snow has horrible traction, the tire has the most friction when it can touch the road. A wide/large tire will float on top of the snow or rain, making for less contact with the road.

Hope that helps.

I had wide tires on the mustang and had absolutely no grip...when I had thinner tires they were sooooo much better.
