Forgeline GA1Rs Installed

I finally had time to get the stock tires swapped onto my Forgelines. I installed them and some Z26 brake pads today.

They are GA1R wheels finished in transparent smoke. I'm really happy with how they look.

How much weight compared to OEM?

They look nice! Gloss black I prefer but beautiful with blue!

I did not weigh them but they are much lighter than the stock wheels.

The forgelines in the 19 and 20 sizes are somewhere between 19 and 23 pounds depending on actual size, about as light is anything you can buy. I owned a set on my C7 that I had custom-made ....great company…

I agree. I have a set of VX1s on my C7 and really like Forgelines quality. The set for ZL1 and C7 were custom ordered. I liked doing that since you can get just about any finish that you want.

I've always liked the looks of the GA1Rs on the Camaro. I just haven't been able to come to terms with their cost.

They look great, one of their timeless designs! I just did a set of GS1Rs (which are the open lug track version of these) in 19/19 for a ZL1 1LE earlier this week, in the same trans smoke. You cannot go wrong with that brushed tint I also love the new EX1s a lot too. We're a master dealer for Forgeline and able to offer deep discounts. I do a WIP wheel program with them on the Z06s, keeping about 3-4 sets there in stock in various styles ready to pick a color and ship so you don't have to wait 4-6 weeks. If I see you guys picking up on these, I'll do them for this platform too.

Enjoy!

Those may be the best looking wheels I’ve seen on the ZL1. Beautiful.

Always been a fan of Forgeline.

The smoke finish looks a bit like a darkened brushed finish....gorgeous.


The spoke design compliments the lines of the ZL1 quite nicely!
