What's the deal with 18" Forgestar wheels
Can someone tell me the shank/thread length of the correct M14x1.5 bolts to use with the Forgestars? I've heard they're cheap, Chinese bolts and some have snapped in the past so I wanted to order some quality ones and have them powdercoated to match my matte gunmetal finish.
My 18x8.5 and 18x11 matte gunmetal F14s will be here on Monday and I'll get them mounted on Wednesday of next week. I already have my center cap stickers and grey wheel bolt caps ready to go. I'm waiting to get the wheels in hand before I order some high quality bolts so I can verify the thread length I need.
Thanks! I agree with you 
8.5" wide on a 35 offset front
11" wide on a 33 offset rear
I'm on H&R coilovers and I have Tarret Engineering monoball camber plates up front and their monoball shock mounts in the rear so that slightly changes my offsets (mostly the front) from stock. I made a spreadsheet comparing the OEM fitment, GT2, and a few other width and offset applications before I finally picked mine.
PM me your email if you'd like me to send it, it was really helpful.

I am looking to do the same for my center caps and was hoping you could answer a couple questions for me:
- Did you remove the Forgestar Sticker or did you put the Porsche emblem over top?
- Did you use anything (ex. crazy glue) to ensure that they stick or nothing was needed?
