Forgestar F14

Anyone have any feedback on this brand of wheel. I have been looking for a lightweight wheel at a decent price and these seem to fit the bill.

What offset do you all recommend for a e92 335i. I don't want to roll the fenders, not do I want to drop the car.

it's still going to be from the manufacturer, not really **********'s fault. The same issues happened before when they offered only 19's. My best guess is to talk to someone from **********s and ask them about the wait time. Dunno where your at, but perhaps the wait will be perfect for the spring time, incase your in the winter right now.

For offsets and stuff, it's probably best to measure your current wheels itself to the fender edge and calculate that way. since you don't want drop or to roll the fenders, if you really want to be safe, order a offset that is -5 off, then you can just get 5mm spacers. 5mm spacers doesn't require extended bolts.

depending of the offset you choose of course... the higher the offset the lighter the wheel. My F14 in 9x18 ET35 was just below 20lbs. I really love the wheel, looks amazing, especially in gunmetal
