Ordering my Forgestars today...
 
I know a few people have had some bad luck with the ordering process, but these wheels just look so good. Now my only problem is deciding what color. I was set on piano black until I saw gold ones on a pearl white:

I just put new tires on the stock wheels, so I'm in no hurry.

I hear you. He definitely got the shaft, and so did a few other guys on different forums. From what I've read though, it seems like Forgestar was just in over their heads with the amount of orders they received last year. I know a couple of guys (BMW drivers) who have ordered this year and have gotten their wheels within a couple months. Caravanshaka's story is by far the worst I've read though.

Piano black, Piano black, white and black go together like rice and beans haha.

I'd have to disagree on the piano black. Have you seen them in person on a white Z Chris? IMO, the glossy deep black finish kinda washes out the white since it is a pearl and not a bright solid white. The matte black helps keep the eye thinking the white is brighter and more vivid.

want to buy mine resq? :stirthepot:

Doooood...please tell me you're kidding about selling yours? I submitted my order about 4 hours ago. :gtfo2: I ended up ordering the piano black, 19x9 +24 front, 19x11 +23 rear. I know what you're saying about the glossy finish competing with the white, but I saw them on a GT-R recently and I was sold.

Piana Black looks awesome, IMO. Picture these bad boys on a 370Z.

:werd: I love these wheels. When they finally arrive (hopefully before 2012...) I'll post some pics. Now I just need to decide what I'm going to wrap these babies in...

I had piano black at first, and my second set I HAD to have matte:

Caravan... how much for the wheels?

Caravanshaka 07-07-2010 09:26 PM

lol, haven't decided for sure if I am selling them, just been contemplating lately!

dlmartin81 07-07-2010 09:38 PM

caravan - your pianos would have looked much better w/o the white pin stripe, I think.
