New Wheels 19" Forgestar F14s Matte Blk
So after a year of repeatedly repairing cracks and bends on my 20" Wald wheels, I've decided to downgrade to 19s for now. I use this car daily and with these NJ/NYC roads, 20s are simply impractical.

After some research and reading helpful threads from this board ( The Godfather), I settled on 19x8.5 fronts and 19x10 rear Forgestar F14s Matte Black wrapped with Toyo 275/30/19 245/35/19. For the price, these will work as a perfect spare/winter set

I will post better pics later but for now here are some quick shots:

Goodness that is sick looking, would you please PM me where you got them and how much!

If I am able to hold on to this E55, I may have to buy or trade up for those!

I've always like those wheels. Just wondering how would the car look with the silver wheels instead of black?

That looks damn good! I don't think you can beat those wheels for the price. Lightweight, strong, and look incredible!
