Is your rear fascia plasti dipped or painted? It looks good, and I am thinking about doing that to my MY Z.

The halo and the rear fascia are wrapped in gloss black vinyl.

I just installed my 19 X 11 with a 55mm back space. The flush mount caps seem to push out 1/16 of a inch. The rubber o ring is in. Will they fall off or not. They seem tight.

As far as poke. 305/30/19. Maybe a 1/4". Nothing to worry about

I shaved the rear hub a tad to fit the center caps. Never had a problem with the cap coming off.

I ran into the same issue as you. I ordered two high rise center caps for the rears instead of grinding off my axle nut studs.

All current Forgestar wheels are built to 72.56 and are hub ringed down to 70.3 for the Corvettes. So its recommended to use the hub rings.
But I do know that some of my Vette customers prefer to use no hub rings and havent had any issues. Just make sure to torque down the lugs in the star pattern so they'll fit lugcentic.
If you get any vibrations then the hub rings would probably be recommended

Hope that helps!

Our customer recently installed a set of Forgestar CF10's for his ZR1. The finish he decided to go with, gives his car a stealth black on black look. Thanks for the support.

I went with the Forgestar CF10 in gloss black 19X10 +30 up front and 19X12 +50 in the rear. I am running NITTO NT05 275/30/19 and NT05R 345/30/19.


Car rides excellent and hooks great! The offset in the rear gives it a much better look than OEM wheels. I could not be happier with the service I received form GetYourwheels.com my sales rep Jason was awesome the wheels came mounted and balanced, filled with nitrogen with black wheel weights and black TPM stems installed on the new sensors.


If you looking form some wheels give these guys a look they are forum vendors and my reps contact info is below. You wont be disappointed.
