New Forgeline GE1R
I stopped in Forgeline last week to look at the new GE1R. It's an 8 spoke I-beam style wheel. I ordered a set in the color shown and should have them in about 2 weeks. I'll post photos when I get them.
Updated photos and weights:
Factory front = 23 lb. 9 oz. Forgeline front = 20 lb. 10 0z. Saved about 3 lb./front wheel.
Factory rear = 27 lb. Forgeline rear = 23 lb. Saved 4 lb. per wheel.
Total unsprung savings of 14 lb. Pretty good in my book.

These were developed specifically for the Porsche centerlock application. They offer a 20% increase in rigidity significantly decreasing wheel deflection and consequently improving handling. The weights are similar to the GA1R. They are also available as a GE1R with a knurled bead to better prevent tire bead slippage.
PM for a great deal on a ready-to-mount comprehensive wheel, tire, and tpms package with Hoosier R7's or Pirelli Trofeo R's.

Very nice, what finish/color is that? Graphite? Wonder if they make a 5 lug version?
