Lightbulb Introducing Forgestar CF5 Concave Wheel / ACG San Diego

As you may know, Forgestar has been a popular choice among Mercedes Benz owners. Forgestar wheels are manufactured by the process of flow-forming which makes them much lighter and stronger then your average cast wheel. In fact, flow-forming is the process by which most BBS wheels are manufactured.

What separates Forgestar from the competition is the fact that you can customize the fitments of the wheel for any car (customizable offset, bolt pattern), you can choose a custom finish and that they cost very little for what you get! In the essence, Forgestar wheels fill the gap between fully custom forged monoblock wheels and the cheap, heavy cast wheels.

CF5 is the newest design from Forgestar. It is a timeless classic 5-spoke design with a concave profile. We can only make several sets in 20" Brushed Titanium at this point.


Pricing, Images etc.


In-House Wheel / Tire Packages Available (see how we do it)
We personally pick up your wheels from Forgestar manufacturing facility to double check the finish quality before we ship them out. This is why we can do the wheel/tire packages with no extra shipping charges.

New Forgestar CF5:




Finish:


20x8.5 Front 20x9 Rear
$1900 shipped
4 weeks to manufacture

They come in 20", 19" and 18"; however, the 19s are not in stock yet. The first batch that came in included the 20s and some 18s.

I can make a set of 18x8.5 front and 18x9 rear in Brushed Titanium or Gunmetal colors if somebody is interested. the 18x9.5 or 18x10 are not available yet. The price on the 18s is $1400 shipped.

Realistically we can fit 20x8.5 front and 20x10 rear without rubbing on a C63 car. For those who want to do that, I have 20x10 ready to be manufactured in Brushed Titanium:

20x8.5 Front 20x10 Rear
$1900 shipped
4 weeks to manufacture

Do I really need a third set of 18" Forgestars?

This may be my second set.

I ordered 18" F14's in December for track use. I guess it would be
overkill to have two sets for track use.

Are they hubcentric?

Should be similar weight to the F14s, at least that;s what Forgestar is telling me. I have never personally put them on the scale since CF5s are too new.

Just weighted 20x10.5 and it came in at 27.6lb. They are as light as the F14s!

Here is the demo wheel hanging on our wall at the shop. This is 20x10.5 so the concavity is obviuusly more aggressive then it would be on a c63.

Not yet. These are too new. I know that the concavity will be exactly the same as this wheel:

F14s are beautiful but the CF5s are brand new...nobody has seen a C63 with CF5s on. I'd go for something more exclusive
