think its about time i show off my blue forgestar F14s

I ordered these in November and received them in August.. LOVE them, completely worth the wait. I have some people ask why i didnt just go with black.. And i want mine to stand out in the crowd is my answer. Black looks good but so many people have already done it. And i personally love how these came out. I get 10+ compliments a day with these bad boys..

Dont mind the cracked front bumper :( i hit a raccoon and yeah... You see what happens. I have an agressor 2 that i neednto get painted so i can install it.

I hope you enjoy

I had those rear tires on 18x11s also. Tread wear was horrible (didn't have much to begin with either), hope you have better luck.

Ordered in November and received in August???..9 month wait is just crazy, especially when they make you pay up front.

Yeah they were somewhat grippy when i first got them. Now they are almost as bad as stocks after using them through 3 winters... I kind of wish i would have looked at what i had to play with.. Im having terrible luck finding any tires that are correct diameter and have long life. What have you had the best luck with so far???

I actually ended up selling the wheels because there is literally no tires available for 18x11 in the right diameter that aren't drag radials (and i wanted to go with a square set up). Those Falken are as close add you're gonna get. I also tried some 335/30 tires. They were super wide, but we're way too short.

If you don't put a lot of miles on your car some 315/40 drag radials would be perfect (i had those also).
