Both finishes are two stage powdercoats with a silver base.
The darkness/lightness of both finishes will vary depending on the lighting which is very cool!

Contact me at Jason@GetYourWheels.com with any interest!

Would be interested in a set for my C5 Corvette with the C6Z big brake upgrade in a 18x9.5 or 19x9.5 front/19x11 rear. Was more interested in the CF5Vs, but willing to consider others in gunmetal. Also like the light smoked graphite and gloss black graphite. Please PM me with a price.

Hopefully soon! Going to have wider front fenders and rear quarters. Fronts will use a 19x10 C6Z fitment. I think Forgestar uses a 37mm offset. Rears will need about the same offset as the fronts. Like 37-40mm on a 20x12. Probably going to do a set of CF5s in a matching Deep Concave front and rear.

I am anxious to see the Light Smoked Graphite in different lighting mounted on a vehicle. I might want something darker. Maybe Gloss Gunmetal, but I like the "richer" look of your 2-stage powdercoating over the standard Forgestar finish. I am reeeeeally trying to get as close to THIS finish as possible. It was an older "Brushed Gunmetal" offering. I know the whole wheel really pops because the aluminum is brushed and the clear is tinted. The brushed surface looks so "rich". I think this exact wheel and color combo is PERFECT...

Unfortunately the CF5V only come in 19" (no 18") and they will not clear the C5 with C6Z06 brakes.

Best option to clear your brakes is the F14 in 18x9.5 19x11 which is a confirmed fitment.

I'll send you a PM with more info!

On the C6Z we can fit up to a 10" +30 in front and 12" +50 in the rear for a flush fitment, this will fit the deep concave profiles all around, and look fantastic!

No installed photos of the light smoked graphite yet since its such a new finish, but I'll make sure to post some as soon as I receive them!

The finish on the R8 is Forgestar's discontinued brushed titanium finish.
Its no longer available, but we can have the wheels custom hand brushed with a tinted clear on the face and gunmetal painted windows/barrel to replicate the look!

Let me know when you're ready to price out your set

It is a C5Z with wider fenders. The front fenders will accept a factory C6Z fitment. +30mm will be too much. 37-40mm is what I would need. Same for the rears. 2" wider quarter panels allow me to run a more aggressive offset.

That sounds sexy! I will let you know! Thanks!

Nice thing about the Forgestars is that the offsets are custom! So we can do the 37-40mm in front, no problem.

Let me know when you're ready

Thank you for your order Charles, you're going to love the black graphite!

Heres how one of our customers described his set of Black Graphite CF10s:

I love the black graphite. From pics they almost look black, but in person they are not. Perfect blend with a silver car as I thought gunmetal didn't pop enough while black was too common.

Too bad I'm not "photoshop" proficient. Would see how that gloss black graphite will look on my car ahead of time.

FYRARMS - Mind if I ask where you found wider front fenders? I'm looking at doing the same thing to my car. Wide rear fenders have been easy to find. Please PM me with the info.

Heres a gorgeous new finish I'm excited to share!

We're calling it Satin Polish and its perfect if you think a silver paint/powdercoat is too boring but dont want something quite as flashy as full polish or chome!

Heres a shot to show the contrast between Satin Polish and a standard Full Polished lip.
