Nobody likes these wheels? They're not THAT ugly, are they?
Mods, I am terribly sorry to be such a bother, but I had to adjust my price down to $1200 picked-up $1300 shipped in the US to make my wheels more marketable. I will not post a lower price on this current FS thread I put my word on it! Can you please change to the lower price? Thanks!

What is the center bore on this wheel? Probably need hubcenter rings for these to fit on the TL, right? How will 29 offset look on the TL? Do you need to roll the fenders?

The only problem is that the wheels came out to be a lot heavier than I expected. I thought the wheels were going to be around 18lbs like the 18x9s on the Forgestar blog, but they came out to be 21lbs After I weighed the wheels all hope of getting these things mounted on my TL-s went out the window haha 21lbs is still very light, but I want to maximize my performance and go with a sub 18lb wheel
I think the Forgestars compliment the 3g's bodylines perfectly though and I wish I could get a wheel that looks like this on my car. If they can make this wheel lighter, I'm getting them for sure! My only regret with my car was getting oversized Michelin Pilot Sport A/S plus tires; their weight has made my car feel sluggish and I was hoping to redeem myself with a good lightweight wheel/tire combo haha. I miss the peppiness of a light wheel setup and I want to make my car feel light on it's feet again. I'm aiming for my next set of wheels to greatly enhance my spirited driving experiences, and that's a price I feel that I am ready to pay! After deliberating for quite some time I've concluded that I would rather throw away a few hundred dollars than to drive my car and be unsatisfied with my experience Thanks for the support though guys! I feel the azine loveeee!
A +29 offset on a 9" wide wheel will look pretty aggressive on the TL. The RIMS (not tires) will exetend 29mm (1.14 inches) out compared to the stock 8" +45 wheels. It will be pretty flush and although many members on here have run more aggressive wheels (+22 18x9) without rolling, I went ahead and gave my fenders a MINOR roll just to be safe. It will also depend on how much you are lowered. Either way these wheels are not crazy aggressive and I do not believe that you will have much or any "poke."
If you guys have any questions feel free to post em up on here so everybody can benefit! I've done a tremendous amount of research on these wheels and I will try my best to answer anything you guys throw at me

Wow I went a little trigger happy with the keyboard on that last post; must be 2am talking
Cliffnotes:
I am genuinely grateful for your concerns Ben and Oscar, thank you both for following this thread so closely and for trying to help me make the best decision
I would not sell these wheels for $1200 to simply get a different color; I could probably get them custom powder-coated with the amount of money I would be losing in the sale haha I still LOVE the look of the F14 wheels, but I think my love/obsession for a peppy and spirited driving experience outweighs my want to mount these beautiful wheels
Wheels are still up for grabs!
And thank you, Ron A, for constantly and tediously editing my posts Your efforts are much appreciated!
