Man they are so missing the opprtuninty with this wheel for me anyway, it would be a no brainer if you sold that wheel in 18" Porsche specific. You could sell a bunch of wheels to this crowd, I'm sure ready to buy a set.

After our conversation yesterday with their CEO, they just might with enough interest. We will be posting an announcement soon. We could have 18" Porsche spec F14s within 2 months.

The F14 18" won't clear 380mm - only the CF5 18" will. We would need to do a 18x9 18x11 or 18x12.

Here's a first step towards 18" F14s, let's see if there's interest!

Sorry to revive an old thread, but does anyone know if Forgestar started making the F14 in 18" Porsche specific fitment? I've been searching, but all i've read says only 19's are Porsche specific.
Thanks

You can get 18's - they just require some hubcentric rings. Not a big deal and some gus on here have them.

That said, I just picked up 19's anyway
