He's an extremely nice guy...I asked him if he would drive it and he said yes but we weren't near a track. So...we will have to figure something out. He's going to be in Florida for a while and Sebring is an option. And yes I will definitely video it!

I have more pics with him and my fiancee...he even asked me to take a pic of him with my fiancee using his camera when we were at lunch which I thought was great. I can't say enough about how cool of a guy he is...very gracious and genuine.

I said this over and over, but he's like "The Most Interesting Man in the World"...Italian style!

Forgestar F14's. 19"x9"F & 19"x11"R. Very reasonable price, about $1600 a set. Aggressive offsets. Quality appears to be first rate. Centering rings supplied. Wheels balanced out fine. They took a while to get since placing order but in the end worth the wait.

Asking for "best rims" is not a great question unless you are asking about things like weight and durability. From the looks perspective, I find that exactly what looks best depends on the color of the car.

Anyone have any suggestions for track specific wheels?-- low weight and high strength would be the priorities vs cosmetic appearance.

Obviously this is a very subjective question. I can say that the AM V8 is one of our top sellers and we do everything from mild to wild on this car.

Our Monoblok wheels are a simple and beautiful way to upgrade the looks of the AM without having to worry about the extra precautions that need to be taken with our three piece versions. The majority of our business with AM dealers is done using our Monoblok platform.

Our three piece options allow for a tremendous amount of customization. Because every process from the design, engineering, machining, finishing, assembly, and quality control are done under one roof we have ALMOST unlimited offset options.

When you first speak with us we will recommend a fitment that is best for the car and the customer. We can then go from there. As many of our customers will explain...we can almost always build it...but we may not always recommend it.

If you would like some more photos you can email me directly and I would be more than happy to send them your way.

Well said Guy, I have noticed a vast range of fitments when it comes to HRE wheels, I guess those that are more flushed are fitments requested by the customer.

It's good to see so many choices here, let's keep it going guys.
