New Forgeline GE1R Installed

Just picked up my new Forgelines today. To date this is my favorite set. Weighed both the factory and Forgelines prior to installing the new wheels. Same scales same day so the delta is accurate.


Factory front = 23 lb. 9 oz. Forgeline front = 20 lb. 10 0z. Saved about 3 lb./front wheel.

Factory rear = 27 lb. Forgeline rear = 23 lb. Saved 4 lb. per wheel.

Total unsprung savings of 14 lb. Pretty good in my book.

You're right up I-75 from me. Nice to see some quasi Local's to me. What did you do with your factory wheels if you don't mind me asking?

I hadn't thought of them as having an aggressive look. Maybe if you were to see them in person.
