Do you know if these are gravity cast or low pressure cast? Also, any idea on the grade of aluminum? Any plans of doing a production run of wheels that are forged?

Thanks.

OH nooooos.... this is a dream ruined.... may i ask what is delaying the staggered sets?? also, will you guys be planning on making a lighter version of these wheels? say 18-20 pounds for these 19"? personally, i don't mind paying more for a lighter version.

Alright guys, after receiving e-mails and phone calls all week about the LF-A wheels, we have decided that we will put a staggered set into production.

Now production is limiting us to bring in one size for the front and one size for the rear, so we need the optimal wheel specs/offset for the front & rear in 19" that would make you guys happy .

So to all the interested buyers, please post the sizes you would want in 19", thank you.

^Still going to be made of cast aluminum? If so, any idea of the grade?

I'd really prefer forged, if that was at all possible.

Yep cast aluminum, low pressure casting. Forged will not be available.

I will take a staggered set such that I can fit it without any rubbing, shaving or rolling.

I believe that size to be

19 x 8.5 +40 F / 19 x9.5 +35 R

OR is it ?


Correct me if I am wrong.
