19's Forgestar test fit on my TL-S

I just wanted to make sure it cleared the brembos before mounting on the tires. These are somewhat aggressive fitment trying to achieve the flush look. I think the front will have a tiny bit poke but the rear looks good. I'll have to see once the tires are on.

Specs:

Forgestar F14 19x9 25 offset all around. Hankook V12 245/35/19.

I plan to get some coilovers in the next couple of months. In the meantime check out a few pictures. I appreciate comments and suggestions. Thanks!

your tire choice is a bit much. i'd go with 235/35 with your offsets/coilover stance. you'll likely rub with the 245's if you go low with coils.

dope wheels.

nice rims! but like mentioned by sharksbreath the widest tire you should go is a 235/35/19 if you are lowering your car... there is no way they will fit in the front without rubbing and cutting ... hopefully you can adjust tire size still??

Thanks for the input on the tire size. So I guess the front will be trouble with coils? I'll assume the rear will be fine though? If anything I'll buy a pair of new tires for the front when the time comes.

Where did you get them for $1,200? Did you get them used?

From a local shop here in Dallas that a family friend owns. I have yet to see them as cheap as what I got them for. It was definitely worth the 2 month wait.

Yeah, that is a smoking deal. I called Element wheels today and they quoted me ($3,200) with tires, mounted balanced with TPMS sensors shipped

If your family friend is willing to ship to Kentucky I will wait.

Did you go with the 235's or 245's? Any issues with rubbing?
