Forgestar F14 on 07 TL S?

I did a quick photo shop of 19inch Forgestar F14's that I can get a good deal on from a buddy...

Wondering if I should go with the Titanium Silver or Brushed Titanium? or all black? Prefer 19x9 Rear 19x8 Front or 19x 8 all around.

http://www.forgestar.com/v1/f14.php Here is a link to the wheels and different finishes it comes in. If you think there are any other wheels similar to a style like this, let me know of any info cause I am open to ideas.

Thinking of getting the finish "piano black" because I like the black paint on black rims look but not sure where to go! Help a TL-s out

Also going to probably need Eibach springs... Looking for a good price and place to buy them?...


Looking for a little opinions... Let me know!

I really like those.

If I were you, I would go with the silver ones like the M3 has. I think the whole black on black thing is played out a little too much. The silver gives a nice contrast to the rest of the car and helps show off the face and true style of the wheel.

If you noticed the ones I photoshopped onto my car are "two toned" black on the inside and silver on the face... I do like that look also, the titanium pops out nicely on the black.

Nice. I would go with titanium/hyper black unless you are into the black on black look.

I was contemplating on throwing on the F14s for my 3G... they're definitely a great alternative for buyers in the market for wheels on a budget.

I would say all or none, as in piano black or silver as the M3 has it. But in order to pull these wheels off, you need to be lowwwwww.

What springs are the best and cost effective with 19x9 in rear and 19x8 in front? My body shop thinks Eibachs would be a soft ride and give it a nice drop? Any opinions? I see Tein as being a popular brand on Azine.

And I think the "Brushed Titanium Silver" is what I am leaning towards more. Piano Black seems to gangster on a luxury car like mine. The two tone is very nice to!

THESE RIMS ON THIS S5 have sold me on "Titanium"

silver ones are the best. Are they gonna be concave like that for sure? Because if they are not, then they won't look as good. but those are some HOT wheels and they look insane on all those euro cars

I'm Ordering Forgestar F14 Brushed Titanium... BUT

what offset?

I can't decide on Square or Staggered??? I prefer a FLUSH look... not tucked in...

Either getting 19x8 or 8,5 front and 19x9.5 rear

Any info before I ask my Shop?

Man I was in the market for wheels for a long time now and I finally found sonething I really like and I was hoping to be the only one on here to have these but I guess not. I have to agree with everyone that these wheels are sweet. I Have a 08 WDP TL-S and I am goin for the Brushed Titanium Silver. And Bforbrian is right you def have to drop the car to make it look good, as you can see in the pic. I am goin with the fender rollin because I would rather have it flush. If I'm goin to do all that work with dropin the car and byin nice ass rims then I will have 2 rool it. Remember your offset to clear the brembo.
