Default **LGM and ForgeLine Center Lock wheels**

Hey guys,

Thought about a custom wheel, but tired of seeing the same old bolt on wheels just with different colors and lips on them?

Well set your car off by going to a full center lock set just like the true race cars!








If you are looking for that ultimate race car look, this option is for you. Forgeline's conversion includes adapters, drilled and machined for your car, specially machined centers, a set of forged hex nuts, and the wrench.

The adapters bolt on to your vehicle with special lug nuts that act as drive pins. The wheel then slips over the adapter and on to the lugnut drive pins. Tighten the forged hex nut down with the supplied wrench and you are done. Just like the race car, right side uses left hand thread, and the left side uses right hand thread so the nuts do not loosen while you drive.

The hex nuts, just like the wheels, are available in many finishes including anodized, polished and brushed.


This option can be applied to almost any of Forgeline's wheels other than the EV1R and EV3R currently.



Please contact myself for an entire build quote including custom options like this!

Cool concept! Is the wrench included like a manual torque wrench or impact?

You get a socket and a wrench so you can use the supplied items with it, or mount it to a gun.

Looks, and only using one lug nut. There is no weight reduction and will add a little bit for the adapter itself.

The entire option retails for $1600 on top of the wheels. Putting it less than the Pratt and Miller setup on the C6RS by a few thousand.
