Burning Brakes
19×11 offsets from -6 to +43
You would want a +10mm offset probably.
they have 19x12 too but I dont know what the offset would be.

yeah I am curious too, why would you go with the 19/20 combo? are tires cheaper somehow? I am seriously considering this wheel but was going to go with the 18/19 combo that black out has in his avatar. I also have full brake ducting that i know clears 18" fronts and I am not sure about 19" fronts... I do like the idea of the wheel filling the well better with 19/20 setup as I am not lowered on anything but stock hardware.
BC big is always better right :-) no jk, I think the bigger rim would look even better and the tires are around $900 for the Hankook set, that´s really nice. But I think nobody else does so far has a 19/20 combo right?

I want to run 345s on 11.5s on a C5Z, can you still get these fenders anywhere? Do you know of any other high-quality manufacturers? Are your wheels running offsets for regular C5 fitment or are they offset further out to clear the inner components with the large tires?

One more. This one is after I dropped it an inch. By the way, the cf5v is 30% more concave than any other forgestar wheel.

Linky no worky. Hmmm, they look pretty nice.
I do like the F14 design better though.
Congrats on the new rims/upgrade.

I just called Forgestar directly and according to them, the offset that fits the C5 the best is the 18x9.5 and 19x12. Anyone know if the 19x12 wheel will fit the rear without any modifications or rubbing? The 19x11 setup only comes with a +55 offset so that may be why the rears are prone to sticking out past the fender. I really want these wheels, I just don't want a trial and error deal.

I wouldn't trust Forgestar's offsets on any car. I've seen too many cars with their wheels that have offsets pushing them far beyond the fender. A 19x12 will protrude from the fender, as will a 19x11 +55. You need something like a +65 offset if I remember correctly. The amount your lowered makes a difference, too.

OK so good news. It seems if you want to order these wheels through distributors like modbargains or corvette-wheels, you are limited to the offsets they stock (which is why the 19x11 offset is +55). I contacted Peter at Forgestar and he said that if I special order the wheels from them, they will get me the correct offsets in 18x9.5 and 19x11 so the wheels will sit flush with the fenders. I'm determined to get these wheels, I just hope by special ordering a set I'm not adding hundreds of dollars. I'll keep the forum updated.

I've been thinking of going 18s or 19s all-around. Can't decide.Could you list your front & rear wheel widths & offsets, and also what tire sizes you went with front & rear? Thanks !

An update for those concerned with the offsets being offered through modbargains. I ordered 18/19 combo and would not say I have any rear poke with 295's. I ordered through Jurrian at Modbargains, just ask for the same setup as Scott.

So what are the wheel widths and offsets in the photos?
