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 but more coming in within few weeks.


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.

I ordered Forgestar's, I am into week 3 of waiting, hopefully they come soon as here in the toronto area, we all know the summer days our limited

They were quick to answer pre-sale questions on fitment etc, but as soon as i order and ask about build time, silence! Im excited and hope to see them soon

For the past few month I have been quoting 6 week build time. It sometimes gets into 7-week period; however, 6 weeks is doable.
