Roush vs Forgestar

[2012csgt]

Decided to change my cars appearance and no better way than to add wheels. Old wheels are the Roush Hyper Black 20x9.5 with 275/35/20 all around. New combo is Forgestar F14 Piano Black 20x9 in the front and 20x11 in the rear Tires are 275/35/20 in the front and 295/35/20 in the rear Nitto Invos. I think both the wheels look really good in their own way but I am really digging the new Forgestars. What do you think? I will try to get better pictures in the sun in the a.m.

PS I wish I weighed the new wheels as I know the Roush weigh 62lbs each. But I forgot

They look great! Wish I had gone piano black

 

[SUPERCHRGDJOHN]

Clean look, I like it!

 

[DaBigBone]

Very nice. By far my favorite wheel

 

[calebnumber3]

Looks good, selling the Roush

 

[May93]

Looks great either way!

 

[scott_0]

looks awesome before and after! but I'm a huge fan of forgestars

 

[Jabooh1]

Definitely like the forgestars

 

[4VFTW]

maybe its just because I hate all things Roush , but I say F14's

I went back and forth between the matte and piano. Looked at 500 pics and am glad I went piano. But it was a tough decision.

Looks good, selling the Roush

I sold them to my brother actually. Hooked him up. $1200 with all new tires too.




Thanks guys for the compliments. I'll post better pics tomorrow.

Nice Sean. Are you seriously running Nitto Invo's on that car now with all that power?:shrug::shrug:
I have those exact size on my car now front and back and they are not so good on my 400HP car..can't imagine yours.

Hey RC. Yeah those Nittos are fine for day to day use. I had DR when I first got the blower but I didn't need them. I don't drive the car hard 95% of the time. And when I go out to race it I just thro on the racestars. When you getting your blower? Can't do towers tomorrow. Maybe next week. You going tomorrow?

 

[kcsvt94l]

I like the roush better myself. I just can't get into forgestars, but most people hate my wheels

 

[11_Ingot5.0]

I actually have the same color car as you I was going to run F14s but couldn't get myself to spend 3k with tires so I bought a set of used roush rims and new tires cost me 1800 and I powrd coated them black. Car looks good though either way

 

[rfugio68]

Looks good! Why didn't you go 20x10 deep concave up front? Color match the skirts and diffuser with some silver brembos, that would finish off you car I think

Im going with DR's since I wont have another set to race with, and I will have the TVS which needs some better grip down low.

Im planning on Calling or going by PBH within the next 2 weeks to make the fiinal arrangements for pricing/parts, etc, and then hopefully placing the order so that the car is back in my hands by the end of Feb.

Was 50/50 tonight on towers depending if you or some other locals were going. Shoot me a PM early next week if you can make it next Friday..Im off the next 3.

Sounds good. Well do.

(after seeing new pics)
That's the one thing that I personally do not like about solid black rims: You cannot see the rim (design). You just see "black" when you stand far a way and look at it. To me it takes away from the design.

Sean..did you get rid of the Fogs because of the Vortech?
