Forgestar F14 Available Finishes
Custom Finishes Available: Forgestar F14 Increased Load Ratings ModBargains is proud to offer you the Forgestar Wheel Lineup with the latest technology in wheel production to bring you the best of both worlds. This new lineup utilizes a combination of the best methods of forging and casting methods both in the same wheel. This is called flow form casting, and is used by companies such as BBS and Enkei. These wheels are made to order and can be made to fit your Mustang with a large range of available sizes, offests and finishes. Flow form casting is a production procedure that turns the wheel (or rim section) over a special mandrel and three hydraulic rollers using tremendous pressure. The pressure and turning then force the rim area to form against the mandrel, creating the shape and width of the rim. During flow forming, the rim actually ""flows"" down to create the full rim width. During flow forming, pressure applied to the cast rim actually changes its mechanical properties, so its strength and impact values become similar to those of a forged rim. That translates to up to 15% less weight when compared to a standard cast wheel. ***Please note the Forgestar F14 will require cone seat lug nuts so that the wheels sit properly on the hub. We can provide these for you (see attributes).

Why Forgestar F14 Wheels are Better Than Cast Wheels
- Custom Offsets - Forgestar F14 wheels can be made in virtually any offset, whereas standard cast wheels come in a set offset. This allows you to dial in exactly how you want your wheels to sit (we can help you select the offset you need for the look your looking for). Having custom offsets allows for fitment of wider wheels in stock suspension and lowered vehicles. Forgestar wheels are designed specifically for your car and it's suspension setup, where cast wheels are designed for everyone and typically do not take in to account lowered suspension setups.
- Weight - Forgestar wheels are also much lighter than cast wheels. The 19x8.5 F14 wheel weighs 19.8Lbs (making it the lightest Forgestar wheel available), where a cast wheel of this same size would weigh anywhere from 30 to 34 Lbs. This saving of roughly 7-13 pounds per wheel makes a BIG difference in regards to handling and drivability. Reducing unsprung weight (weight that is not supported by the car's suspension, i.e wheels, tires, brake rotors, and brake calipers) is one of the easiest ways to improve your car's handling, braking, and acceleration. As a general estimate 1 pound of unsprung weight is equal to 10 pounds of static weight. (weight that is supported by the vehicle's suspension).
- Strength - Flow-formed wheels are similar in strength to that of a fully forged wheel, without the cost. The process used to make the Forgestar F14 wheels is the same process BBS and Enkei Wheels use.
- Range of Sizes - Forgestar F14 wheels are available in a multitude of sizes, allowing you to decide exactly what diameter and width you want to run on your vehicle, rather being forced to run a set staggered size with cast wheels (As cast wheels usually are only available with one set front wheel width, and one rear wheel width).
