called forgestar today, they said:
19x9 +25 up front 19x11 +28 in the back I trust what they say, but you guys warned of the +23 up front... +25 isn't much off of that! I would *assume* +30 would be a safer offset to go with, correct? |

Seriously? whats with all the +28+43? Thats not going to be flush at all, again i do not feel im flush at all with 19x9F 19x11R +24 all around.
And when i ordered my wheels i was told i can get any offset i choose (ideally +20F +15R) However they would not guarantee fitment and in the case the wheels did not fit, i could not return them. Just fyi, im running 275s upfront, and 305s in the rear.

325/30 was the size I would probably run, although Porsche has put a 305/30 on 12" wheels for the GT3 and GT3 RS in the past....I wouldn't try it with a hankook though. |

Yeah and the biggest downside is the extra weight. 12" will fit fine. O had thought about doing a 8.5/12 combo like a GT3. Forgestar just doesn't make good offsets in the CF5 and soon to be F14 19x12" with a +42. If the rear suspension was a little wider on our cars we would not have this issue, but what we have is a wider car than a 350z with basically the same rear suspension...so we have to run lower offsets...which means heavier wheels as far as one piece wheels go.
