Order and deposit submitted for a new set of BC forged. The 2D image was approved this morning. I hope to see these at the end of February!

The BC Forged wheels are very tempting. What sizes and offset did you end up ordering?

I ended up going -

19X8.5 +53
19X11.5 +58

I saw more and less aggressive offsets but felt this my comfort spot. This is the style I decided on but different finish on the center. Now i have to decide on the center cap of which there are 5 versions of which i did not know. It took me months to decide on the wheel style, color and size. Im sure I am over thinking it, haha.

Looks really nice! Car looks lowered a little from stock….are you running spacers with the HREs?

Car shown with the black wheels is not my car, I ordered the same wheel, and new tires, with black rock guards. So My actual car pictured here, will look like that very soon. im lowering my car and adding Bilstein coilover B16

This is my car

I have to say the Forgelines are my favorites so far, at least for a black car. The midnight silver finish really works for me. Doesn't turn the whole car into a black hole like all black wheels tend to do and doesn't contrast too much like some silvers can do but is sort of a gunmetal shade between silver and black.
following in your footsteps about 7 years later! Love the look of these Forgeline GA1R wheels, perfect replacement for our CL wide body GTS’s.

Alex from Sharkwerks gave me a custom offset to account for my TechArt lowering springs (not installed yet) which were also custom spec’d for a 4GTS Cabrio weight, so I don’t get too much drop. Keeping my fingers crossed!

F: 8.5x19 et50
R: 11.5x19 et45
