Autocross and Road Course setup! Forgestar F14 19x9.5
Mr. Cobb came to me seeking a low buck setup designed for him to do auto-x and road course racing with. He had a few goals, which we met.
-All four wheels/tires needed to be the same, including offsets/widths -Lightweight wheels, no fitment issues -Low cost wheels -Inexpensive tires The solution? Forgestar F14 wheels, 19x9.5 at all four corners. Deep concave. (all same offset) Nitto NT05 275/35-19 tires (2" shorter than OEM tire, lowers Camaro 1") This wheel/tire combo only weighs 54 lbs! Total factory wheels/tires = 250 lbs Total Forgestar wheels/tires = 216 lbs Mike chose the Textured Gunmetal finish. They came out amazing. Enjoy the photos Tony

Hey Tony got a question, is that car lowered in the image? Or just smaller diameter? I'm thinking of lowering the diameter of my wheels, but I also want to lower the car via Coilovers... but I dont want to be slammed lol.

Jagan, the car in the photos is lowered on Pfadt drop springs. The tires are 2" shorter than OEM tires, so they also lower the car another inch.
Mike, I'd love to join you out at TWS that weekend, but it is the final weekend before Hotrod Power Tour. No doubt I'll be thrashing to get our '11 SS convertible ready for the Magna Charger booth. Long list of items to install in a short time

Beautiful!
The F14's seem to be a great end-all design. There is a size and finish to match almost any need you've got, and at a great price too! Love to see some photos of this guy out on the track. |
