F14 fitment

the only way thats a powdercoating issue is if the powdercoater dropped it. Powdercoating can't dent your wheels, and it looks like it was that way before it was even coated.

as for my rim, I was told by forgestar that that is a powder coating issue. I shipped it back and was told I would have it in time for my install on the 18th. I think that is the best solution regardless if it is a PC issue or not.

Not a chance on gods green earth that that dent came from powdercoating. They gotta be powdercoating their noses over there if they expect you to believe that. I had no idea powdercoating was such a high impact process

If they wont be willing to fix it I looked on the forgestar website and it says that they are $10, but i dont know if thats for one center cap or all 4

While I would tend (overwhelmingly) to agree, its also one of those 'whatever you have to tell yourself to help you sleep at night' type things. As long as they will fix it at no cost to me, and in less than 6 weeks I don't really care. hooray to keeping my install date!

Oleg: i'm pretty sure its 10$ a piece. Hope to be selling those silver ones in a few weeks

Got my 4th rim in today, looks good. Not perfect, but good.
No center caps (GRRRRRRRR), but they will be shipped tomorrow.
I will make my 6/3 install date!
Funny thing is the 5/5/2011 date when it was supposed to be "1 week" took 4. Whatever, at least i made this install date!

and for some reason they sent the pre-August 2009 center caps?

UGHHHHH, hopefully this will be resolved in less than 6 weeks. There goes my install date of 2 weeks from now

Can't wait to see them on the car

Man that really sucks about the wheel and the centercap....but mainly the wheel. I can't believe something like that left their hands and went into a customer's. I guess quality control cuts into profits.

rarwz · 06-07-2011, 06:36 AM

drum roll please......

The offsets and fitment are great. I would definitely say that you woudln't want to push the wheels out any more, as this is just a hair from the fender. Perfect.
