Centerline Forged

Does anyone have these rims?

19" - 14.89lbs.
17" - 13.5lbs.

These are some light rims, and they look pretty good too. I haven't checked the offsets or anything so no flames. I haven't seen any 17-19" rims that are lighter .

I e-mailed them a week ago about the RPM rim. They said it would not fit the CL type S.

These are the RPM's. I would think that the 17's would fit but then again, what do I know?

as long as they offer the 5x114.3 size, i dont see why it wouldnt fit... 18x7.5" should work fine. im also interested in these wheels... someone out there must have experience with this company...

Lightweight is great, just check on their durability.

I spoke with the Centerline peeps at the SEMA show last month in LA. They WILL NOT fit our cars!!!! Shitty bastards are only making them in a +40 offset right now!!!!!! I don't think these would fit on a non-lowered car!!!! They do have the right bolt pattern, just not enough offset!!!!!
As far as durability, they are one piece forged. I have seen the process, and they take one HUGE chunk of alloy and press, or forge it, into a rim!!! They have some new machine that makes it easy to make these rims without sacraficing quality!!! I picked up the 19" rim at the show, SO LITE!!!!!!!!

From what I hear from other website, the wheels are pretty weak.
