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 20x10 Rear

Do these get as concave as the F14's did on the wider widths lower offsets? There's not much information out there on them and pictures are limited to a Mustang with.. ehhh not lovely fitment.

i think when you go to the link they have the pricing for 18/19 inch fitments so i'd assume he only posted the 20" here because it's a low price for 20s.

20×9.5 offsets from +2 to +42
20×10 offsets from +29 to +69
20×10.5 offsets from +15 to +55
20×11 offsets from +42 to +82
20×12 offsets from +34 to +74

19x8.5 offsets from +10 to +50
19x9.0 offsets from +16 to +55
19x9.5 offsets from +10 to +50
19x10 offsets from +16 to +56
19x11 offsets from +26 to +29
19x12 offsets from +42 to +82

18×8.5 offsets from +10 to +50

We are taking orders on these. the wait time is 5 weeks. Keep in mind that the spring is coming and the factories will be overloaded with orders. That means that the wait time will be longer.
