They look great, David! Any plan on making these in 19" centerlock?

 

Dave,

Please pm. me with Rennlist pricing and availability of the GA1R- CL version in 18" for my 2011 GT3RS with recommended offset-I have PCCB.

Thanks,
Nelson

 

pretty sweet wheels ... if I did not have the HRE 1pc P40CLs I would have gone for a set of these!

 

I don't know, it's just tighter than the OEM. I was trying to jiggle it in place but eventually the wheel nut pulled them on fully.

 

I don't know, I called Forgeline and was asking about their GA3R wheel and I mentioned I would prefer a single-piece wheel and I was told that it was under development but would be ready soon. I had nothing but positive interaction with Forgeline. I was afraid that ordering a wheel which is in development may takes months and months to get, but i was positively suprised, there was no delay and got them in 4 weeks.

 

Yes, 19" Centerlock should be available in November.

 

The monoblock Forgelines look awesome! I'm still going to go through with my 3pc GA3R in 19".

Dave how are mine coming along in production? These are the ones bought from Jeff and shipping to Apollo Beach FL.

I'm a little nervous about the fronts at 8.5x19 et53. People keep telling me I should get a 9" wide wheel instead...but I'm not sure about the offset it should have because the GT3RS 9x19 et47 would stick out past my front fender way too far but then I don't know what it would take for offset so that it doesn't stick out but doesn't rub on the inside at the shock either?????

 

Your wheels are actually shipping today in order to get to you in time for your event. On the 9" wheel, it's a tough call. Your car has the Cup arms on it, which really throws a wrench into the standard measurements for the car. If you want to run with these for now, I would be willing to work with you on taking some measurements and trying to get 9" wheels to work up front. Just give me a call or shoot me an email. (Let me know if I am not supposed to be shipping your wheels today)

 

No it's fine...ship the wheels....we will talk about the 9" wide up front.

THANKS! I'm super excited!

 

Nice wheels, any chance of seeing the full car shots?

 

I don't understand why the preference for 1 piece wheels. Can someone please educate me.....

 

If the 3 piece wheels are put together with less than desireable "hardware" they could leak!!

One piece wheels dont leak............. as much

 

i spoke with BBS USA.
everything else being equal, one piece is always lighter and stronger than 3pcs
3ps, however, is easier and cheaper to repair.

 

wow, so centerlocks are actually heavier than the 5-lug version. so wtf is the benefit of these damn wheels! <-- referring to centerlock, not the GA1R btw.

I'm ordering GA3R's. love the lip and design!

 

I have GA3R and really like the look of them. They are a beautiful wheel, and forgeline did me a favor by making them on such short notice.

In the future, i will probably just buy the 1 pc wheels from them. Just piece of mind for me really. Dont want any chance of developing leaks....
