Default New 19" Forged Wheels On The Way

It has been somewhat impossible finding any wheels with a lip to fit this vehicle...spacers aside. It seemed like the "concave" style rim was the only way to go for any mass produced wheel company because of the large caliper size.

So I went ahead and spent a couple extra bucks for some custom 19 inch Competition Mesh 8 forged rims from 360forged.

SO excited about the purchase! Here's what the rims will somewhat look like. I will post pics as soon as I have them installed.

Nice choice. What offsets did u order?
And if u don't mind - can you quantify a "few extra bucks" as everything is relative...

I have it as a 19"x9" ET38 front and 19"x10" ET42 for rear.

As far as pricing, the total came out to $6455 for everything...wheels/hankook tires/TPMS/ and shipping to Guam but I managed to talk him down to $5900. It initally broke down as followed:

Wheels = $4960
Tires = $848
TPMS = $272
Shipping = $375
