18" Wheel - Wide and Inexpensive
Forgestar F14 or CF5 wheels in 18" are currently $1,280 in custom width and color, Shipped.
- 18x9.5 / 18x11 Enkei PF01 in 18" are $1,440 - 18x9.5 / 18x10.5 Enkei RPF1 are popular - but offsets are not ideal with the Akebono calipers. There are other wheels which fit in 18" size, but either cost WAY more or aren't available in 9+ width. p.s. A custom size/offset/width/color wheel for $320 / wheel is a SPECTACULAR deal. |
There is Team Dynamics but I think 18x10 is the widest you can have. Also, I came across a company that isn't expensive and do custom offsets, also 18x10 is the widest.

I'm looking for two 18's to throw on the back (10-10.5" wide) to mount semi-slicks on for when I go to the strip. I'm just trying to find some cheap ones since they will only be used at the strip.

Cosmis racing 18x11 go for around $660 for a pair on ebay?

Turns out, Forgestar wheels are on sale this week only for $200 off.
Sold! |
RPf1s come in better offsets. I have a set that clears breaks with no issues. you just have to search for correct offset. You won't buy a full set up, buy backs and then front wheels.

How about wide (13") and expensive? :rofl2: Forgelines. If you have to ask the price. They're not for you. :eek: Get them, and you'll be a BALLER!

Y'all forgetting the last word in the title of this thread...
All we've really found is that Enkei are the only non-custom manufacturer i can afford... when ForgeStar aren't on sale that is. |
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...

They're still TE37's but with the engraved RAYS logo instead of a sticker and you can't have "too many" TE37's . . . |

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

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. |
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. |

I ordered 4x forgestars previously, and they were all gucci @ 19" |
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.
|
So as a real wheel-related discussion...
I'm thinking tire size 275 / 315 Thoughts? |
OP you can get RPF1s in an almost perfect offset, i have a set at home. I believe they are +15 9.5 front 10.5 rear. Don't have any pics yet, they were only on the car briefly after i wrecked my G to drive them home. Didn't have any issues with them clearing anything. As soon as i put rubber back on them they will be on the Z.
