Forgestar F14's deep/super deep combo
- Thread starter Alon 5.0

Thanks a lot people!
So basically my offset options for a good fit are from 35-41mm front, 54-60mm rear?
I'm looking for more of a fat look on the back. My car is lowered on coilovers (not sure exactly how much so i will post a photo). So yes I'm looking for the more aggressive look.
Since super deep are not an option, I'm debating between going semi-concave on the front and deep on the back, or just go deep all around. Im really digging the deeper look, but I dont know which one would look better for what I'm looking for. Since I only judge from online photos (Me and my car are overseas) its a very hard desicion, and not too many photos I can find of both set-ups. BTW, will the deep concave fit on a brembo car without any problem?
I'm attaching a few photos i took yesterday so you can see how the car sits for the moment.

If someone can post pictures with the same tire, offset and wheel width that would fantastic.

My car has brembos in the front and deep convave 9.5in width rims and there is around a tooth pick between the caliper and the rim. It will work.

Damn what offsets?
rfugio, what are your tire sizes and offsets? trackpack are you running 20" wheels? thanks.
Top picture is 19x9 et 35/ 19x10 et 42
Mine are 19X9.5 et 35 / 19x11 et 54
The difference is small. I was going to go with 9.5 all around but i wanted the option of running a larger rear tire.
Honestly I would just go with 9.5 et35 or et33(same size as RTR wheels) all around to avoid any issues with running a 10' front wheel.
Thanks...I just noticed your in Austin. If you see a black stock '14 around west campus, that is probably me.lol. I have not seen anyone with forgestar on a mustang in Austin. They look great on yours. I need to find a reputable shop in either Austin or Houston.

Yes it will rub. That's what I had on my car before, but I was a lot lower than 1" that's the thing. With 11" ET55 on 315/35/20 which was EXACCTTTLLY what I had on my car, it rubs on the outside, and rubs the inside fender liner as well on the inside of the barrel of the wheel (though it wasn't that bad). Best fitment is that wheel and offset with a 305/35/20 if you can find it, or find a 295 that works for you, 315 will rub unless you modify the fenders, or don't lower it.
Lol sorry
That size works

sorry bout that. Posted a couple pics on the first page with info in my sig. No 100% sure on my offsets. Think offset are 35 & 55.
Nitto DR. Eibachs actually 1.5 rear drop

It's an inch and half but doubt that 1/2" matters much when it comes to lowering. Every other discussion it's a huge amount. Lol, cracking myself up with my dirty old man mind
Believe it or not, the cars that I build, that 1/2" makes a big difference between rubbing and not rubbing (this keeps sounding more and more dirty), but it's honestly true. Believe it or not 1/4" made the difference for me. The car was lowered aggressively, picked up the rears just about 1/4" and it got rid of the rubbing. I just depends on how BADLY you're having the issue. The worse the rubbing, the higher you have to pick it up, etc...
