Forgestart F14 Specs & Confirmation

kromberg · 03-10-2021, 02:56 PM

I am ready to buy a set of F14s for my 2013 Nismo and I just want to double check a couple of things before I place the order. Here is what I am thinking.

Stock suspension, stock wheel alignment.

Plan on dropping it about 1" with the Eibach Pro Kit Lowering Springs.

19x9.5 +25 offset Deep Concave
19x11 +15 offset Super Deep Concave

265/35/19 - Fronts
305/30/19 - Rears

After more research, the caliper clearance issue is a matter of spoke design and not offset. Looks the the Forgestar's should not be an issue. Overall now, does this look like a reasonable setup that will work?

Do you plan on lowering your car? If so, the front width/offset are weak. I ran a 19x10 +20 with a 275/35 with unmodified fenders but have spacers now since I rolled my fenders. The rears will be fine.

Our biggest question is your suspension set up. That plays a major part in wheel choice and since there is no information on your set up, it is difficult to provide advice.

By god don’t buy anything in those specs

A 2” wheel stagger will have nearly the same offset

Wheel alignment plays a big role into this; as for me (performing Straight Line Acceleration only) and setting my camber at 0* ..... I would order closer to a +32 front/ rear in the 9/11” combo

But unsure what you’re after, a sunk-poke setup

My biggest question are the fronts going to be able to clear the large Nismo calipers?

List your tire sizes, as this will help too.

I did before posting. From my understanding of it, that is what I came up with. Other than promoting your 101 post, you have not added anything of value.

Hey hit me up if you need Forgestars. We are their number 1 dealer in the USA.

Also, the front fitment can be better. 19x9.5+25/30 Deep concave works.

In response to your last comment, I believe the caliper clearance will depend on a combination of the width and spoke design. There are a few 370Zs running SDCs in front but I've only seen them on a 19x10 with ~+20 offset or lower.

Thanks for the info, so deeps should work fine then.

NorthStyle · 03-31-2021, 12:40 PM

Deeps will be fine. Most here run the Deep concave 19x9.5 20-25 offset for the front. Personally, I have a Deep concave 19x10 +20 in front.
