Thanks to all of those that have shown interest in my past polls, I've convinced Forgestar to begin offering the 18x10.0 front wheels in the Viper 6-lug fitment. It has taken over a year to get these done, so if you were waiting on a set - do not wait any longer! We have enough cores to build 6 sets.

Forgestar F14 wheels are rotary forged wheels and are very lightweight, on par with the ACR Sidewinders and 6-spoke Gen 4 wheels.


Colors available (all powdercoat finishes)


Gloss Black
Gloss Silver
Gloss Gunmetal Gray
Matte Black
Matte Textured Black
Matte Textured Gunmetal Gray
Gloss White
Gloss Gold
Gloss Bronze


18x10 and 19x12 are $1550/set plus $120 shipping
19x10 and 19x12 are $1650/set plus $120 shipping
20x12 rears currently on backorder (not available)

These cores are already machined/drilled for Gen 1-4 Vipers, they just take about 2-3 weeks to powdercoat.

Photos below are 19/19 and 19/20, as nobody has the 18s on a car yet.

How do the weights on those compare to the Sidewinders?

Should be about the same. Here is a 19x9.5 I weighed before

Here is a wider 18x12 I weighed before.

Can't tell from your website, but do you guys do wheel/tire mounted, and balance packages? Really interested to see pics when someone gets the 18/19's on a gen 2 GTS.

I can ship tires to your door, but only do mount/balanced sets for local Houston customers that can pick them up in person. The wheels would ship directly from the manufacturer in CA. It becomes cost prohibitive to ship all the parts to Houston first, then purchase large boxes, and then pay more shipping with heavier weights. I never recommend buying mounted/balanced, as you'll not have a way to fix a balancing issue via mail order.

Any chance they will have a 18" combo front and rear?

No 18" rears planned at this time. We simply do not sell enough of these to create new part numbers.

I have a few customers running 18/19 Hoosiers for road course. Most of the 18" rears are for drag radial guys.
