So three weeks from payment to delivery here they are:

- 20" x 9.5" ET 20 squared (rear uses a 12mm spacer for flush look all around)
- Brushed face
- Polished lip
- Max concave on all 4 wheels while clearing front Brembo GT calipers
- 265/30/20 PS2
- TPMS-compatible
- 24.3lbs each

Technic,

I'm curious what you mean when you say that they can be custom ordered for any concavity? Is that to say if I order a 19" wheel, 10" width, that I could choose a range of concavities even within that one configuration? Or are you saying that one can get more concavity only with more width?

Concavity is a result of both offset and width. The lower the offset value, the higher the concavity.

For example, a 20x10 wheel with 30 offset compared to a 20x10 wheel in 20 offset. The second wheel will have greater concavity.

You can have a flat, mid or deep concave center with the same offset depending of what BC Forged can provide with the particular specs of your wheel.

In my particular case, my front Brembos decided the max concavity of the centers as requested. However, I could have chosen a flat center with the same offset as well. The center of the wheel would have been deeply recessed to bring the spokes outward in that case.

You can see photos of the HB04 in the net at different concave levels, including a flat center.

You can choose up to 11" wide, I believe.

[Technic]

Thanks to all for the compliments, much appreciated...

[Hedges]

This is running on OEM ZCP suspension...















Extremelly happy with the look, finish and apparent quality of these wheels so far. They look like they are twice their cost. Ride is more or less the same as the ZCP 19" wheels except the tighter steering (the main reason of wanting to go square again) and tighter turns (lower profile and PS2, vs the 19" OEM Conti tires).

Your car turns out very nice.

Your car looks so clean Elías! I think those pics might have just convinced me to add ZCP
to my order even though I really wanted to go with the stock 18s. That ZCP drop seems
absolutely perfect with those wheels

If I had the cash to go BBK - yellow calipers on Jerez is perfection! Well Done!

Hi Rikkert

The way that Individual works is that the VIN of an Individual car must match the part to be ordered. In other words, in paper my VIN is the only VIN that can be used to order this Performance wheel II in bicolor leather as this was the first modified this way and installed by Individual. This was a full 100% custom, one-time deal, item AFAIK.

It may be possible for you to order the standard M wheel in Rust Brown bicolor using your VIN. Contact your dealer for details.
