I bought my 18x11 VS-5RS setup just a couple days ago and these guys already shipped!

With the discount and free shipping, it's basically $550 off, which is almost enough to buy a pair of 888r's

The F14s and the Apex EC7 are the two wheels I'm torn between tight now. I'll probably end up going with Apex as I think they are of better quality. I wish the forged Apex offerings would be in the budget.

Personal opinion- forged all the way. Lighter and stronger.

F14s are hard to clean imo, and I'm not a huge fan of black wheels

That said, photo cred goes to @Maximum95 - here's my car on F14s, soon to be for sale if you're interested in used wheels 😉

I haven't had the time to take *actual* photos yet, but the wheels arrived today! I was in the middle of cleaning up my garage when the UPS guy dropped them off. He knew exactly what they were and which car they were for

Not a professional pic by any means, just iPhone

295/30's RT660 up front
315/30 R888r in the rear

I have more clearance for wheel weights against the brakes up front than I did with the F14s. I added about 4lbs with the new set vs old, but I also have like 6" more contact patch- so worth while trade off
