That is the beautiful AR1s, a brand new wheel for Forgeline. Their wheels are all custom, so offsets and finishes can be as you wish. The owner of Forgeline has a C7, so they've played around with a lot of wheels.

I do not have anything other than white on those unfortunately!

Default Black friday sale pricing continues!

Just had another set of these go in with 19/20" brushed face! Let me know if you want a quote! You get my best pricing the first time out, no price match/beat BS

Here's Gary's gorgeous Torch Red C7 with SC3-SLs in a 20/21" with some wide Pirelli 325s on the rear!

There's nothing like the good ol' timeless look of a Corvette on a 5 star wheel. Only there is nothing "ol" about this beautiful new bright red C7 with Forgeline's super light, high luster wheel!



Gary reached out to me after seeing a lot of the Forgeline wheels I've done and wanted something (that I am a big fan of!! ) to set his C7 apart from the crowd. And it really did! He ended up with the Forgeline SC3 - Step Lips with my favorite Transparent Smoke centers with polished lips. The fronts are 20x9 and the rears are a massive 21x12" with Pirelli 325s on them!

THE SHOCKING PART IS THE WEIGHT!

Gary had 18/19" OEM wheels on his and the 20/21" wheels with massive rear tires are both lighter than the OEM wheels!

"The 20"/265's front wheels (and tires) are 4 pounds lighter than the stock 18"/245 OEM front wheels.
The 21"/325 rear wheels are one pound lighter than the stock 19"/285 OEM rear wheels."

I'm sure those will look fabulous, however I'm hoping to see more Stingrays with these wheels as well. Especially in Transparent Smoke.

Default Trip to Forgeline today!

I stopped by Forgeline today to pickup my set of GA1 wheels for my wide body and check out the next set of C7 wheels I have shipping out. Forgeline's Z06 was tucked inside nice and cozy!



Douglas' Z06/Z07 wheels shipping tomorrow - GZ3 with Titanium center and polished lips. Look at that depth in the center!!!

Default VX3Cs in gloss black with trans smoke lips

This is the popular VX3C 3pc wheel from Forgeline that I've done quite a few sets of. Thi particular set has a gloss black face and a trans smoke lip which looks great for a Vette owner wanting a darker looking rim without doing all black!


Or if you like the all black look, they do look mean!


Sizes options
I can get you OEM 18/19 or 19/20" Z51 sizes for you street guys and for you track guys I can do an 18x10" square setup as well as a drag setup with 18x6 and 18x11" for LT1 and 18x12.5" for Z06 guys with a 345 MT DR. I can fit the Z06 sizes of 19x10 and 20x12" on the LT1 car with 325 rears for those looking for a more aggressive look.

Yes it's tough to explain the detail of seeing the brushed finish through the tinted clear coat but this finish is unlike any other! You had a chance to get any high res pics of the wheel up close Glen?

Default RB3C - propeller style

This is the very sexy RB3C propeller style 3pc wheel from Forgeline. I was able to catch this wheel mid production and it's finished in a finish I'm really considering since it is primarily a dark gloss gray but seems to cast some bluish tint in certain light. Enjoy

Default Forgeline GA1R open lug on my C7 19x10.5 and 19x13!!!!

I had Cavalcade of Customs coming up last weekend and David, the owner of Forgeline, got in my hands this set of wicked GA1R open lug wheels in 19x10.5 and 19x13! They look HOT on the car. I'll have more pics on the street soon.

More pics to come when I get back from the Detroit Auto Show today!
