New Wheels - PK Design - Forgestar CF5V

Finally got the new wheels I pulled the trigger on back in December. Shout out to Paul at PK Design for his awesome customer service, and his patience with me throughout the process.

Forgestar CF5V, 19x10 +23mm Deep Concave 285/35 front, 19x11 +29mm Super Deep Concave 325/30 rear, wrapped in Firestone Firehawk Indy 500. Originally I was going to get Michelin PS4s, but they were on back order until March...

Also went ahead and debadged the side emblems, and took a short road trip with the fraternal twin:

I love the wider look, it changes the whole car IMO. I've been wanting to do it for a while, but I didn't want to go dirt cheap on wheels and house stuff got in the way for a bit.

They look great! When the CF5V first came out, I had a set that I purchased for my vehicle prior to my Camaro. They held up great, were extremely lightweight, and handled plenty of a pothole. A lot of compliments on them as well.

I think you're going to really like them.

Wow, nice- you must like a white car and black wheels- just like I do. My Camaro is also white and I went with Stance Black wheels. I love the contrast.

I went with 20 X 10, square, also the same offset as you did on the front- 23 MM. I like your 19's though- they look so good and are lighter than the 20's.

That's good to know, especially about the potholes...we have more than our fair share around here.

I wanted to stick with the white/black theme for sure. I may even do something with my calipers to keep that going

I saw a thread on this page a couple years ago on these wheels. I've been pretty set on getting them since.

Do you have any rubbing or had to move the harness in the rear? Hows the ride now compared to before? I have the ARC 8 19x10 +2 285/35 front, 19x11 +43mm setup on the way and just curious.

No rubbing at all in the 300+ miles I've driven since installation, and I didn't touch the harness. After my first trip, I got underneath on my back with a flashlight just to make myself feel better. The ride is more engaging, but that also means more tramlining in the front. Overall it's definitely better though.

My +29mm rear vs your +43mm is probably due to mine being super deep concave. If I had gone with normal or deep, they would probably have been a closer offset to yours.
