Default Anyone have these specs?

thinking about ordering some Forgestar F14

I want to go with 19" and 19x10.5 all around. The front is my main concern. I'm worried this size won't fit. I basically don't want to camber it just staggered. I also want to avoid adding extra parts just to make it turn. As far as tires if this were to work would 265/35 front 275/30 rear work?

I went through the specs and fitment section but no one with 10.5 up front...everyone either has 9.5 or 10...Idk if that's because it doesn't fit...

Thanks,

People run square set ups so they can take advantage of rotating their tires.

If you're going to stagger the tires anyway, why not stick with the tried and true staggered set up that's been done many times over.

265 - 275 will hardly be a noticeable difference. I'm about to order some myself, getting 9.5"F 11"R with standard flush Z fitment, I think it's +23F and +15R. I will run 265F & 305R as I am now with stock Rays and spacers.

You're missing a huge point!!!!! What's the offset? Without this it's impossible to answer.

Far as tires go, no those will not work. Tires need to be 10% over but under 20% of the wheels size for safety. You can use 285's though.

That's my problem. for those size wheels I don't know an offset that will give a simple z flush. As far as the tires, that I will take into consideration. The fitment struggle is real..

Yeah I think to end the complication I am going through I think i'm just gonna settle for 9.5f and 10.5r. it's what my stock wheels are set at right now. I just want more room for lowering. I can't do the camber look but I like the low aggressive look to it, so trying to get the best of both..

Very true point. Yeah I think I'm just gonna settle for that and just grab spacers. I hate the camber look personally but I like the aggressiveness and low look on the cars that do it. I just want more room for lowering without losing that flush....pretty much best of both worlds...

I guess 19x10.5 all around with +15 offset.

If I was in the market for wheels that offer custom offsets, this is what I would have gone with 19x9.5 +20 19x11 +15 and tires 265/35/19 305/30/19.

Run that by the GYW guys and see what else they can recommend for you.

Just so I can get a better understanding of "offsets"why would choose +15 in the rear? Is it so the wheel would be further in? Like under the fender well? Where as -15 the wheel would stop further out so pretty much the outer side would be pass the fender? hence flush? or is it just for concave?

I ordered a set of F14's yesterday in this same set up. Jason is great, knows his stuff.

Badchachi, I think you are confused on offset. You have it backwards... +15mm rear is flush, -15 would poke big time. If you get the same offset all the way around, you will either have to run a spacer in back or have major poke in the front.
Call Jason...google offset calculator too.

Here is diagram explaining different offsets.
Wheel Offset Explained | Wheel Offset Guide | Discount Tire

Basically the lower your offsets number the further out your wheels will sit in relation to your fenders. The reason for going with a size 11 and +15 offsets because it is the optimal size for the most concave face(SDC) and flushness. You can achieve the same flush fitment with a 10.5 +10 rear set up but I'm not to sure whether you can get the super concave look.

A -15 offsets on a 11" wheel will push your rear wheels beyond your fenders and into the hellas flush territory.

Congrats! Which color option did you go with?

I think you could have done a 10 +25 upfront for a deep concave and still maintaining same fitment on a 9.5. I haven't seen too many people going with 10s upfront but I would like to try it someday. Hopefully soon! Lol

It depends how low you are and camber too, we need all the facts. My rear was 10.5 +15 and sucked in. Flush would be +5 probably. I'm -5 now and stick out a little, even at -1.7 camber. Front to be flush on a 10.5 I'd guess +25 to +35. im 10.5 +15 and it sticks out some at -2.9.

That's what I meant. So staying positive less of a flush. Going negative would be more flush
