Picked out Forgestars in a silver finish. Ordered through Charles @ B2Auto 6 weeks ago.. I hope they get here soon..
where is that car parked? Doesn't look like the city to me!
Buddies house in Schaumburg..

If you do, do it soon.. Delivery times seem to go up as the summer approaches.. I hope to get mine in a week or so, at least before I leave for Dallas. But......
The PS on the avatar is a 22" F14... It will look large in person due to the full face design.

Those are 22s.... If you are RWD, then going staggered is a big HELL YES
.. You won't have any issues with drivability; heck there are a few AWD guys here running stagg. Go for it!Those are 22s.... If you are RWD, then going staggered is a big HELL YES
^i know someone selling a 20" but G37 spec, i really don't think 22" will be okay for me, probably too rough of a ride and sidewall not high enough for protection
not sure if it'll fit, i still have to get more info on them.
are you rocking them on your car now?

22's really aren't bad at all. I drive in Chicago and the pot holes are the size of my car (okay, maybe not that big), and I also use 38 PSI cold -- and the ride is still good.
I've had 18's, 20's and 22's -- you can tell the difference between 18's and 22's, but not that much between 22's and 20's.
You can always run 285/40/22 to get the most sidewall.
Definitely run staggered regardless of RWD or not! Just make sure you get the same size tire diameter or very close to.
I was going to run 22x10.5 and 22x12 on my FX AWD, with 305/35/22 tires. Tire fits both and the overall diameter will be the same = no awd issues.

Regarding steering, I was talking about 10.5 wheels following ruts in the road, I hate that.. So I just wanted a larger wheel, but not too wide.. Tires (st 2's 265) and tpms are all set, but no wheels as of yet... going on 6 weeks, as I've said during the meet, I have very little patience :wub:.
Oh that's right you did tell me Toyos at the meet. Don't feel too bad yet.....I went on close to nine weeks waiting for mine. :err: Maybe by then, BC will release coilovers for the 2Gs. :ninja:

For me, it all depends on new A arms being developed to address the camber issue.. I drive at least 16K a year and would have purchased H&Rs weeks ago, but don't feel like replacing the tires every year:err:. Hopefully, someone comes out with one.

Last I heard from Charles, Forgestar was waiting for the wheels to come back from powder coat...So hopefully.....

Still have not received mine, 9 weeks now; shipping, but I'll believe it when I see them. Charles is fine, but the communication between he and Forgestar leaves a lot to be desired. It's like the left hand not knowing what the right is doing. Forgestar/Iforged might be a large player in the industry, but with their customer service it will not enjoy that status for many years.
You should start a thread and post up some pics of your wheels.
Well the wait would be worth it. Those are some nice looking wheels.
That would be pretty awesome. I would love to have even wider wheels than 295 in the back.
