I think you mean upgrade, not downgrade.

But I'm not a fan. Everything that I've heard about Forgestar has not been very good. It seems like you've spent a good deal of money on your car so I would spend a little bit more than what you would on some Forgestars and buy some quality wheels like Volks, SSR, Weds Sports.

If those are too much, even something from Enkei (RPF1, NT03-M) would be a better choice.

I'm getting the Forgestars at cost or near cost which is why I like them lol.

Someone has these Enkei's for the 1 series for sale:

But they have been pretty abused in my opinion since they were first on the Berk Time Attack car and then this guy bought them and now hes selling them. So if they end up cracking or etc I'm pretty sure then I'm SOL lol.

If at cost means <$1000, I'd take them. Any more than that and....

I already purchased Michelin PS2's as well. 265/35/18 for the rear. 90% tread and Harold gave me a super good price lol. Now I need to find 235/40/18 fronts.

[Definitive]

MAn you guys are making me want some track wheels...

[cooler2442]

Lol if I wasn't looking for sponsorships I would have gone with Apex Arc track rims. But the Forgestars aren't bad either apparently. Fronts weight 18 pounds and rears are 19pounds.

[Definitive]

Il take some sponsorships. lol

But they have a clearance going on a few sets. These are probably under 1k.

Prices aren't posted since they are cheaper than distributor cost I believe. Tell me which one you like and I can ask them for you if you want.

[Definitive]

None of them really, if Im spending close to 1k on wheels I need to buy stock M3 wheels for lease return time.

I won their TRAK Function giveaway. Then I ended up meeting up with them and went to their parties every night at SEMA. We all had a great time and next thing you know I'm working for them!

Alright guys, Who wants to rent/loan me their stock M3 wheels for a track event? I am going to an event in Jan. Theres no way Ill be able to buy a set of dedicated wheels/tires by then.

It would be greatly appreciated. If not, maybe Ill get some shitty tires for that day...
