Forgestar Customer service/specs
Hey guys, i recently ordered forgestar f14s and was wondering what specs you all were running? i got the stock rim sizes because i want to keep my tires. Also wondering if anyone has went through the custom rim process can help me out? i know c5s have strange bolt patterns and was wondering if they match it up after entering the type of vehicle you have. my order confirmation did not include a bolt pattern, only my car year and model

Did you specify those wheel specs or did someone else?

Why are you changing offset? What is your goal?
If your answer is 'because that's what I was given' I think you should educate yourself on what the term offset means and why you might consider changing from OEM.
Everything is a compromise. The suspension was designed a particular way but that doesn't mean it's best for what you have in mind. Maybe you want more oversteer or more understeer. But it's to your benefit to understand the effect any change you make will have so you can make an informed decision.
