What's the deal with 18" Forgestar wheels
#76
Those centercaps look great, I will be doing the same thing but I want it with a silver/red/black crest to match the one I have on the hood. My car is also going to be de-golded.
I placed my order for F14s in 18x8.5 and 18x11 a little over 2 weeks ago and was told the hold up was waiting for the 18x11 barrels to arrive from China. They came in on Mon 6/10 and I was just given a 5 week ETA. I ordered mine in a custom matte gunmetal smooth finish which will look absolutey stunning on my (new to me) Slate Gray 996TT.

I bought these crests, they were $30 and match my wheels perfect. High gloss and the crest is raised and amazing looking. Totally worth the money.

Thanks!
These were maybe $20 shipped because they are the "custom" ones.
Again this is the site I ordered them from

I ordered them in 63mm

Has anyone here used the www.forgestar.com/tracking site to track their wheels and found it to be inaccurate?
The vendor (which will remain nameless at this point) told me that the tracking site is always wrong and rarely updated.
He also informed me most of the time the wheels are done before tracking site is update.
Meaning, the wheels are complete but the site still said "materials being prepped".
Ive been in touch with Forgestar and they said the opposite and their tracking site is almost realtime.

Yours says "materials being prepped" still?
Mine says 4 weeks ETA as of 6/13 so I'm hoping in 3 weeks I'll have them.

Mine say machined and the same eta as yours.
I ordered mine on May 6th. So if they are due around the 5th of July that will be close to 9 weeks!!!!

You were unlucky enough to order when they didn't have any 18x11 barrels in stock and unfortunately nobody told you they were out. So effectively we both had an order date of 6/12 (when the 18x11 barrels arrived from China).

i needed another one. my original order took 7.5 weeks iirc? but now the barrels have changed so old f14's cannot be used against new. they will not look the same.. i am told. i think the concave my have changed. or just the barrel. who knows. no sprechen sie chicomm.
i just want some cf10's. no cf10 18's. ever. terrific.
i think the oz's may look better too.

InfamousDrew, I emailed the place you got your center caps and ordered a set, thanks for the Link!! You saved me from machining my own from scratch!
FYI, they had a few choices of colored or black and white crests, etc..
