the SAGAs? They just came out within the last year!

They're still TE37's but with the engraved RAYS logo instead of a sticker

and you can't have "too many" TE37's . . .

Like I said. nice wheel, but too many people have the TE37's. I go to my trackdays. And they are on almost everyone's car.

The wheel of choice just about.

Maybe back there, I don't see too many at the track but a lot on style guys. I love my mine and I don't see anybody running 18x11's on all four corners lol!

I'd take Enkei over Forgestar any day of the week and they're lighter with the 18-inch RPF1s in the 18/19-lbs range. Only bad part is you can't customize the widths/offsets...

Haven't had any issue's from my 19x10/12 set-up....just over 10k miles & smooth as glass!
I do have less aggressive offset's than most people use & 27" tires to help absorb bumps/pot-holes.
Enkei is a good wheel & they make the base 18's,,,I chose the Forgestar's because of custom offset's & affordability.
An out-of-round wheel does suck;regardless of what brand it is.

Never heard of that before?!?

I ordered 4x forgestars previously, and they were all gucci @ 19"

jchammond · 11-02-2017, 11:54 PM

I steered away from the 18” wheel; wanted fat 27” tires & the selection was slim w/18’s.

As long as no brake clearance issues,Those will fit on the front.

NorthStyle · 11-04-2017, 01:30 PM

Well, they're good now after paying another company to have the wheels in the condition they should've been sent to me in...

I chose them for the same reasons you did except in the end I only had the custom offset portion fulfilled.

NorthStyle · 11-08-2017, 12:41 PM

Dunno, just the luck of the draw. Even I don't recall hearing of this very often with Forgestars, mainly issues with the finish of the wheels due to powder coating problems. Either way, once is enough for me.

osbornsm · 11-08-2017, 02:30 PM

So as a real wheel-related discussion...

My fronts are 9.5
My rears are 11

I'm thinking tire size 275 / 315

Thoughts?
