F14 fitment

Sounds good - Eric is a nice guy with great prices. Not sure how much Forgestar really knows on what fits best (as well as everyone else

) - it really does come down to preference. With your offsets, it is like adding a 23mm spacer to the front and 15mm spacer to the rear - you might want to rethink what Eric advised you with. Yeah, I got the 3-4 weeks from Eric last week, so I am down to 2-3 wheels. Which color did you go with?

I went with matte black. After seeing the double down pix, i knew what i wanted.

I did some *rough* measurements outside, and it looks like the front could go ~20mm to be flush.

I'll see if its not too late to adjust to +36, which should put me at 17mm farther out. 3mm to be on the safe side.
The backs are fine, i would rather be 'safe' and just add a 5mm spacer later on if need be. EDIT: got a reply back from Eric saying that +36 won't clear the brakes

are the touring and sport wheels the same offsets? There should be a post with all these specs, maybe i'll start it if i get some input! try to help other idiots like myself not throw away 2k

Yeah, 30 is the highest you can go for the 9.5s, to clear the brakes.
