I just got a nice deal on the forgelines locally, and placed my order. Will PM you with info in case you're interested.

I went with 19" GA3-R centerlocks. Matte black centers with gloss black rim, should look nice on aqua blue. Thanks for the suggestion, Doug N!

Here's the same finish on the 5-lug version of the same wheels.

Masmole, You have GOT TO POST PICS when you get those wheels. I was planning on ordering wheels with mdrums if he decides Forgeline. Love that exact wheel, but with a matt lip. Really curious how the gloss lip will look.

Congrats btw!

Mike, I have been using 18 inch CL Forgelines on my car since May 2010. No issues on slicks at all.

I have not read about any issues with Forgelines on the internet or heard of any from various guys that run and race them at my local track. Only question I heard was Deputydog said he heard of issues but could not say what and where so I went back again and googled and searched and found nothing.

I'm really liking the looks and reputation of Forgeline and there pricing is spot on too.

OZ forged center lock wheel I like a lot but it is around $1700 more.
CCW does not have center locks so they are out.
Formula 43 is new to me and they seem nice but I don't know anything about this brand.
BBS E88 is very nice but $3000 more.
GMG wheels are even more than BBS!!! $7800...brushed finish WTF??

So Forgeline, race proven wheels will most likely be my choice.
