Default Forgestar F14 Wheels on LFA #032

Here are some pics of Forgestar F14 wheels in Piano Black fitted on the #032 LFA which made its debut at the Lexus of Westminster Meet this past Sunday.

The wheel sizes are:

20x9.5 Front
20x12 Rear

And the factory Bridgestone Potenza S001's were utilized.

They look really good on there. 12" rear fits stock body with ease. What's the stock wheel rear width?

Stuck with the Bridgestone's, probably wise decision seeing how this is Lexus' own car (right?) if performance testing is done any it was with stock tires. Looks really good though, black on black is not a crime!

yes corporate #032.

if they need the car for testing, i am pretty sure they will put back factory 20s. these aftermarket will have different weight and obviously rear width

Not a fan of blacked out wheels but looks fine. Looks like the car can handle 21's pretty easy.

Some good looking results though I want to see a black spider with a polished lip.

Is that Jeff doing the project?

The dealership didn't even give him access to a lift.

Did they use the TPM sensors?

Saw this on twitter earlier, really looks good.

I want to buy a spare wheel/tire set at some point, so it's nice to see options. I am leaning towards sticking with a spare OEM set though.

for spare wheels, i would rather just get some aftermarket, especially when factory wheels are at that price tag
