Forgestar F14

just had these installed on my car 2 days ago.i called Modbargains to ask about the wait and the price and etc.the wait was long,but Eddie said he had a set of 18" in Titanium that were ordered for a MB.i said what's the discount and he said $100 and free shipping.i said let's do it.i just bought an '07 E63 about a month ago,got an OE tune(which was awesome) and figured i needed to do something about the 30 pound factory wheels,even though i loved the way they looked.

i reduced each corner in the front by 11 pounds and 10 in the rear.i got Goodyear Asymmetric 2 tires which also saved a pound at each corner.the car handles noticeably better and rides much better(it had Sumitomos when i bought it).

the wheels came in perfect and only 5 days after i ordered them,i know there are plenty of bad stories about Forgestar,but i had a good one.thanks for looking.

Nice, we have sold and installed quite a few Forgestars and have not had any issues. I posted some photos in the C63 forum with a recent install that came out nice.
