Forgestar:

ModBargains is proud to offer you the Forgestar F14 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 FR-S / BRZ 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 (select from drop-down).

Expert Review - We use what we sell

""Well I'm quite ecstatic to finally get these up!  Many of you are familiar with the 18 and 19 inch Forgestar F14's seen on Rocket Bunny kits but many people were not aware that Forgestar makes 17in F14 wheels! Yes, 17""! Like many of you, I wanted a 17"" wheel, because of weight, tire price and performance. However, I didn't want a wheel that is seen everywhere *cough* rpf1 *cough*, but it still needed to be good looking, lightweight, high quality and available in perfect fitment...and after Jurrian started bugging me about changing wheels on my FRS, I decided to pull the trigger on some 17x9 +35 Forgestar F14 in Textured Black.

Lets start about Forgestar...these wheels are CUSTOM built to order, so size, width, offset AND color can be selected by you to fit PERFECTLY (Modbargains can help you choose proper fitment, if you are unsure). There are a lot of wheels out that fit our car, but they don't fit well-they are sucked into the wheel wells looking like stock, or poke out. I opted for 17x9 +35 because that seems to be the size/offset to have for perfect fitment when you have a touch of camber, allow for wide rubber (you know, because our cars are so powerful haha) and perform well under pretty much any condition. Plus, after choosing size/width and offset, you pick out a color. These get powder coated, and there are TONS of colors available-you want pink? Got it. How about blood Red? Yup. How about normal colors like black, silver and gold? Yeah those are available too haha. I opted for Textured black Forgestar F14 17x9 +35! ""

Why Forgestar F14 Wheels are Better Than Cast Wheels

• Custom Offsets - Forgestar 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 17x8.5 F14 wheel weighs an amazingly light 16.2 lbs, where a cast wheel of this same size would weigh anywhere from 23-27 lbs. This saving of roughly 6-10 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). By using this ratio if you were to replace your stock wheels that weighed 25 lbs with Forgestar wheels you would be saving 320 lbs. in static weight!
   
• 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 wheels is the same process BBS wheels uses as well. Forgestar wheels are also rated at 1520 lbs per wheel which is considerably more than a cast wheels which are typically around 1000-1200 lbs. per wheel.
   
• Range of Sizes - Forgestar 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).
