Take a look at this Forgestar CF5 sporting a brand new Satin Bronze powdercoat we now offer as a standard finish!

It has a nice almost anodized look to it with a little bit of metallic flake!
Great option if you're looking for something a little different than the always popular Bronze Burst

Customer sent in some great photos of his widebody S2000 on a set of 18x10 F14s all around in Matte Black Graphite!

I think these photos do a decent job of showing how Black Graphite looks installed on white.
They're dark but not quite black, they also have a nice matte sheen to them.
Although in direct sunlight I'd say they lighten up even a bit more

Finally had a chance to snap some quality photos of our upgraded 2-stage Candy Red powdercoat!

Attachment 48366413
Attachment 48366414



Heres a close up shot, where you can see the nice metallic silver basecoat through the candy red topcoat!
Attachment 48366415

This is a great alternative if you love candy red but want to splurge on the full hand-brushed candy red finish!

Heres a brand new 2-stage powdercoat we came up with recently that we think will be a hit!

We're calling it Smoked Light Graphite
Attachment 48366377

Similar to black graphite, it has a silver basecoat, but the topcoat is laid much lighter so it gives it a finish color that is lighter than gunmetal but darker than silver; and varies with lighting.

Its a gorgeous finish in person, and different from any of the other finishes we currently offer!

Here are some shots of our Light Smoked Graphite F14s (left) next to Gloss Black Graphite F14s (right)
Attachment 48365106
Attachment 48366276

Both finishes are two stage powdercoats with a silver base.
The darkness/lightness of both finishes will vary depending on the lighting which is very cool!

Will just shared these gorgeous photos of his 997TT on 19x8.5/12 CF10s in Gloss Black Graphite, heres how he described the finish:

I love the black graphite. From pics they almost look black, but in person they are not. Perfect blend with a silver car as I thought gunmetal didn't pop enough while black was too common.

Very interesting combo! Its definitely possible but we'll have to make a few adjustments since the CF10 are only available up to 21x11.

I'll send you a PM with more info!

Heres a gorgeous new finish I'm excited to share!

We're calling it Satin Polish and its perfect if you think a silver paint/powdercoat is too boring but dont want something quite as flashy as full polish or chome!

Heres a shot to show the contrast between Satin Polish and a standard Full Polished lip.

Thx Jason! That is plenty of photos and a huge choice but I believe that an important information can be added to compare with stock: the weight!!!

It will be great if you can add the weight of each model you have that can fit the Z06 to your pics.

I'll see what I can do!
Weights will vary depending on the design, offset, sizes, etc.
But I'll provide weights as more sets come through!

For reference:
19x9.5 CF5V 23.2 lbs
19x10 F14 23.4 lbs
19x11 F14 24.4 lbs
20x11 F14 26.4 lbs

Congrats to ezrider on his new CF5/PSS setup, seems he was thrilled with the outcome!

Yeah, they looked nice as can be but it was killing me. A lot of the roads here in PA are crap. Bumps were harsh and traction could be suspect at times even with lowered PSIs. I said screw it...I saved my pennies and got a good deal on a set of Forgestars CF5 from Jason at GetYourWheels. Not as fancy as the 360Forged but the weight savings and ease of cleaning makes it worth it.

All I can say is this......holly $#it ....WOW . This was a 180 in all aspects of the ride and handling of the car. Granted it is a new set of tires but the other ones only had 2K or so on them. I get a better ride and better traction and really a more secure overall feel. All I can say is yes, the 19/20 looked nice but I appreciate the additional rubber on the road now. Pics below.

BEFORE:360Forged Concave Mesh 8 275/30/19 345/25/20 Nitto Inovs





NOW: FORGESTAR CF 5 275/35/18 345/30/19 Michelin Pilot Super Sport
