I posted this in the forgestar thread, but I just brought them to get mounted. The installer noted that one of the wheels is bent and that he cannot guarantee that there will be no vibrations while driving. He suggested to have it replaced if possible. He did attempt to balance it and used around 15 weights compared to the 1-5 on the other 3 wheels. Vendor told me to open a claim with UPS. I do not want to even test fit the wheels or they might try to pass the blame onto me. Timeline is literally, received wheels monday night, tires tuesday morning, and filed a claim tuesday night. Hopefully someone will take responsibility and rush a wheel out to me because as good as these wheels look, it is not worth another 6 months wait.
Just got the replacement wheel back yesterday and mounted it today. I'll put up some pictures tomorrow. Replacement process was pretty simple dealing with Forgestar. Took about a month. It was more frustrating dealing with UPS because they tried to pick up the package 3x after they already picked up the package, and 1 more time after I called in telling them that they already have the wheel. They had the wheel for about a week before they realized it and shipped it back to Forgestar.
Couple quick pics. Not great but hope they help. I'll try to get some better ones when the rain is over. It would probably look a bit better if I was lowered another 1/4" or so but getting out of my driveway is annoying enough already.

Looks awesome!
any more pictures from the side?
how much do these weigh for 17x9 +58?
I weighed mine when I received them, unmounted they were right at 18lbs on a bathroom scale. If you want to see a bunch more pictures you can check out the Forgestar thread in the R&C forum: https://www.s2ki.com/forums/s2000-ra...ight=Forgestar
With your criteria, my original suggestion still stands. Personally, having my pulse on things s2k related being here a wile, I think the 10" is actually more a selling point, especially with the offsets I suggested, it would broaden the market into the race/competition guys. You shouldn't have any issues selling these in the future. Visually and performance wise, 255/10" is where its at. If you dont mind pulling your front fenders, you could run this same 10 +58/255 up front as well for a squared set up. Its what I have up front on my car.
just curious, how is 255/10" better than 255/9" performance wise? thanks in adv!
