Supposed to be in the mid 60's Sunday... you'll need to take them out on a spin...

Nice wheels! Can't wait to see the wheels mounted on the ZR1!

Those Forgeline VX1Rs look pretty similar to the Signature SV104s. "BAAD LS2" has the SV104s on his JSB ZR1. He's also running a 19 F/R setup
I'm guessing your car will look fairly similar to the pics I've attached below of BAAD LS2's ride.. and that's a good thing!

It is nice to see such a small amount of weight to balance but it is odd to see weight on both sides of the wheel.

Yes, they are _similar_ and yes his car looks great. I've seen his car in person and online. The spokes of the wheels are similar, but the center of the wheel is a completely different design. Decided on Forgelines for me.

If nothing crazy comes up tomorrow afternoon, I will get it done tomorrow after the alignment is done, I get home, and give the brakes some time to cool.

Low light pics... I got them on as soon as I had time. Took my time because I wanted to be extra careful with the brakes... didn't use the protectors when taking them off, but did use them when putting the wheels back on.
Very pleased with the finished product. Thank you, Gerry, at CW4L!!
Also, as a side note for performance folks... saved ~10lbs per corner with the Forgelines vs. the OEM wheel/tire setup. I don't know the difference in the weight of the tires, but I don't see how there would be any significant weight savings going with the wider R888R compared to OEM tires, but maybe the RFs are heavier.

Side by side, the wheels look significantly different... I am certain. Maybe not at first glance, however. But the Signature wheels have more concavity and the FL's have more rakish/edgy lines.
