BC Forged 20x10 20x12 setup on 18 1LE

** 4K mile UPDATE** with my rear @ +43 there is minimal rub on the left side rear outside sidewall. So minor you cant even notice it on the sidewall of the tire. If you stand in the trunk and compress the rear suspension you can her a very slight brief rub. I've taken the car through the paces and have yet to see anything on the sidewall showing any obvious rub but just thought I'd mention it. Isn't an issue for me I have 4k miles on with this setup and no visible signs of the rub on the tire anywhere it is absolutely minimal. If this is a concern and you're wanting to replicate my stance order your wheels with somewhere between +48 & +53 offset and this will more than alleviate the rub if replicating my camber specs in the rear. There's still plenty of room on the inside of the tire to accommodate more offset I would say at least 3/4 to an inch of space on the inside wheel well to inside tire. +48 would be a safe bet if you're not comfortable going +53. +53 is 10mm more & essentially another 3/8 of an inch offset than what I have at +43. This information is only applicable on the SS 1LE cars that run negative camber and my information is based off my current setup at -2.0 camber in the rear to get the clearance needed to make the wheel and tire flush on my car with my offsets. The more offset you can use the less likely you'll have to run -2.0 camber in the rear which is the track setting. I cant recall what the street setting is but its definitely less than -2.0. If you're running factory ride height I don't think you'll have any issues, this is definitely more pertinent for the guys who are lowered. if you use these specs on a non 1LE car you're definitely going to have a good 1/2"-3/4" of poke if you run a 12 ' wide with a 325 with no camber and my +43 offset.*******


Just got these installed yesterday and spent about a half day playing with the camber to get the stance and look just right. One thing I can say is I’m blown away with BC Forged and Cole Young. My build is 20x10 & 20x12 HCA381S in brushed bronze face with polished black lip and black hardware. Wheels are flush with the fender as you’ll see. Car has the -1.8 street camber in the front and the track setup on the rear at -2.0 to get them flush at the top of the fender. Wheels were expected to ship around 5 week mark and I had these in less than 4 weeks with custom offsets for the rears. Weather has been miserable here overcast and cloudy these wheels are pretty dark and you need some sun to really see how magnificent they are. Enjoy the pics I’ll post more when our weather breaks and we’ve got some sunshine to really show off the stunning bronze. Tires are Toyo R888R 285/30/20 & 325/30/20

Damn that looks so good! Great set up! Your wheels were one of my choices. I just put on my old BC Forged wheels from my 5th gen onto my 6th gen. 20x10 front and 20x11.5 in the back. Custom offsets for the back as well. What offset did you go with on the back? Mine are +38. I still need to put on the correct tire profiles for the 6th gen. These tires are still the 35 series but they fit after i did the wire harness relocation in the rear driver side. However i been on the fence about putting the tires on as I'm still contemplating whether or not to sell these wheels to get a BC Forged oem 19" zle spec set.

It’s due to the fact there’s Space in the rear to spare and in the front you have to either start grinding and trimming on things to get clearance on the inside of the wheel or put a corvette fender flare on the front to cover the tire poke on the SS and SS 1LE cars. This car needed some serious tire in the rear with the Whipple and cam to settle it down the 20x11 factory Supercar 3’s we’re useless especially in 1st and 2nd when the boost rolled on it just skated around. It was fun to drive but these tires are a game changer. A lot of it was aesthetics too not going to lie.

I guess using wheel size in regards to sizing was a bit lame it was going from the factory 20x11 305 to a 20x12 325 that I was going for with that statement

Rears are +43 fronts are factory +20, your color was my first choice such a beautiful color and your wheels are very similar just more rounded that boxed. I looked at those wheels as well.

I've mentioned it to you before but those look great with the hyper blue....
Are the spokes gloss bronze?

Thanks. Yes my fronts are factory +20. The finish I have looked great on my ashen gray z but I'm on the fence about it on my Hyper Blue.

I had the factory 1LE wheels which I absolutely loved one of the best oem wheels personally I’ve ever seen. The car was just too dark the brushed bronze is glossy and pretty dark but gave it just a bit of color and contrast. I looked at matte bronze as well but was was way too bright imo.

Hey sorry just saw this. Thanks! No the face is finished in brushed double dark tint but yes in certain lighting they look bronze. Weird. Never knew that when I chose the color.
