Forgestar Rotary Forged Wheels! Customized Width / Offset / Finish
Golan@AutoTalent.com
ABOUT FORGESTAR
With over 30 years of combined experience in the automotive wheel industry Forgestar Performance Wheels has bridged the gap between forged wheels and cast wheels. Forgestar Performance Wheels is proud to introduce the world’s first one piece lightweight rotary forged custom flow formed wheel lineup.
Rotary Forged Flow Forming is a production procedure that turns the wheel (or rim section) over a special mandrel and three hydraulic rollers using tremendous pressure. The pressure and turning then force the rim area to form against the mandrel, creating the shape and width of the rim. During Flow Forming, the rim actually “flows” down to create the full rim width. The pressure applied to the cast rim actually changes its mechanical properties, so its strength and impact values become similar to those of a forged rim. That translates to up to 15% less weight when compared to a standard cast wheel. Our technological breakthroughs in heat treating allow us to increase dent resistance without having to make the wheel heavier.
Forgestar Performance Wheels proprietary Rotary Forged Flow Forming technology allows the customers to choose between a range of offsets for every wheel width that is offered. The end consumer is able to choose a wheel that will perfectly fit their own individual vehicle. All Forgestar Performance Wheels are compatible with tire pressure sensor monitors and allow clearance for most high performance brake caliper upgrades.

The F14 have a horrific breakage record. I would hope that Forgestar have revised the design in recent years but I would not chance it. My CF10s have been faultless save for (a) one I destroyed on a gutter at high speed but it was still airtight, (b) the abysmal quality of the satin powder coat finish - it rapidly faded to a super flat matte grey - I am part way through spraying all rims in gloss black as I move to new tyres and (c) the wheel lug bolts are crap - I have had a number fracture and have since bought a full set of quality lug bots.

Let me know if I can help in any way! The F14 have a horrific breakage record. I would hope that Forgestar have revised the design in recent years but I would not chance it.

I have no personal experience with F14 but a quick search online will reveal to you plenty of horror stories. Happily recommend the CF10s.

I can see that but also can say the same about any other wheel manufacturer (within the same quality) that has scaled as large as Forgestar. Unfortunately even if there are 500 people who get sets of wheels only that one who had a problem is going to go online and rant.

Looking for an 18" option for my new to me 507 - it has the factory ACC rims but I don't think those will survive Hosuton roads....
