Also for the 10" the highest offset is +54 Are you sure its not 19x10 et45?OPINION NEEDED:
What do you guys think of a gloss black wheel on a red car? I am liking the look but unsure. I think the grey gives the wheel more detail but the black wheels gives it a more "track look"

I apologize for the confusion and stand corrected. They do not come in 10.5 width only 10 and you're also correct on the available offsets. I was looking at the wrong notes I had saved for another set of wheels. However, this is directly from the individual I went through to purchase my wheels.
"The issue with the CF5V 11” is that we won’t be able to go that high with the offset. The deep profile will cause the spokes to contact your brake calipers. Forgestar wheels have the concavity profile pre-built into the blank, so we have no control over how deep the profile is. We can do an 11”, but you just need to be prepared to run a smaller tire and possibly roll the fenders depending on suspension"
The spoke contacting the caliper is not true as others are running the 11 width in the back but I don't know what kind of camber and fender modifications they have or of any. Also, check out the black graphite that they offer! It's an extra $40 per wheel but it's very nice. I went with it and really like the color. It's darker then the OEM wheel color but to dark. I wish the factory wheels were this color instead.
I also sent you a PM.

I was hoping with the correct offsets I could make it work with no rubbing. I dont want hellaflush I want hellagrip. I really want to shoot for the 295/30 rear tire. Its going to look amazing I think.
Thanks so much for your response bud. That makes me feel better. I was telling the wheel guy that this is the first set of wheels I have ever ordered where I could do custom offsets. Its very cool but makes it a bit more detailed when it comes to selecting but it is very cool to have the option to set up for a particular tire size, or even brand , that you really want to run. To be honest I was shooting for a high offset because I want to run the PSS but the wait time o the rears is insane.
The chart that I have been using put my front wheel out 2mm more than yours and my rear 8mm more inboard than yours. Forgestar recommended a +54 for the rear and the vendor says +55. I got a pic of a lowered F with the same wheels at the same offsets but the vendor said the tires were close, so if I ran the PSS down the line I would end up with rubbing. Found a guy who does mobile fender rolling for only $20 per side with $20 mobile fee, but would rather avoid messing with the fenders unless I need to. I would prefer to shave than roll to avoid cracking but will do it if I need. Imagine running a 305/30/19 at stock height with just a roll lol
Shyguy do you have any pics of your car with the wheels at stock height?? It would be a HUGE help. Really hard to find pics of the F with wheels at stock height. Thanks again !

^^^^I can address the rears. I have RCF wheels - 9s and 10s. Fronts are +50 and rears +41. Rears are pretty close to your question. I'm running 295/30 S-04s on the rear. I have rolled the fenders, and do have a slight rub over large bumps. A smaller cross section tire may have corrected that, but I like the look of the 295 and wanted to stay with a 26" OD tire. A couple of folks are running the stock RCF wheels & rear Michelin PSS 275/35 (26.6") on an ISF and are not reporting issues.

The version that Flowrider has definitely looks good on the ISF. The fact that you can add bigger tires is even better. The only con is the fact that they're so heavy. I was playing around with the thought of getting a set of 2012 ISF wheels or RCF wheels, but the chances of getting a set without playing the waiting game + the fact that they're relatively heavy pushed me to pull the trigger on these wheels:
Happy to say that 18x9.5 +40 on 265/35 Michelin PSS (all around) functions perfectly on stock height. No rubbing on full lock and no fender mods required. Haven't gone over large speed bumps with people in the back so can't comment on that.

I don't, but check out Gymkata's build page (linked below), and the thread started by bbong (2nd link). I used their pictures for a visual reference when I was deciding on 18 inch wheels. It helped that my wheel specs are very much the same as theirs (aside from the offset).

Makes me think a 10" wide wheel in the +39 ET area will fit...decisions decisions. 18" or 19" diameter...
