Ive decided to back out on obtaining a set of wheels from a previous wheel manufacturer and am back looking for solutions for a wheel for my R.

Has anyone found any new solutions?

Working a stones throw away from HRE, I have been strongly considering a set for streeting my R. They did 3d scans on my front and rear wheel wells/brakes/stock gaps ect... so I know I will have a perfect fit. My main hesitation is cost, as they will be cheaper than my carbons, but still an extremely expensive set of wheels.

Knowing yours and others issues with the long studs, I need to speak to them about solutions for this.

The styles I have been considering are the R101s (lightest), RS108M (R reps), RS100M (multi-spoke) and RS101M (split 7 spokes). I'll let you know when I am able to talk to them about the studs.

I am probably going the CCW route as they are light, forged and under $4k. They are also just up 95 from me. On a car this heavy I wouldn't feel comfortable flogging it on the track with anything less than a true forged wheel. YMMV

Can't go wrong with Forgeline!

They're nice, but the thin spokes just don't do it for me.
Completely understand but they have ALOT of options. I only got the GA1R open lugs because these are the lightest ones out there. And only 1 pound more then your carbon fiber wheels.

I think we're kinda stuck with having to do custom orders for fitment like from Forgeline etc. That 25 offset is a real pain but it is what it is.

You unless you run a spacer up front. 19x11+50 is actually a pretty common size for euro cars, unfortunately the wrong bolt pattern!

My offsets are 24 front. 62 rear. Both on a 11x19" I'm currently running 305/30ZR19 pilot sport cup 2's all around. But I will switch to 315/30ZR19's in the rear once I wear this set out.

[MENTION=19530]Voodooo[/MENTION]: how happy are you with the square setup? Any specific reason why youre going back to 315 in the rear (asides from original setup and slight understeer?)

Honestly other than forgeline, hre, and a few other manufacturers who do custom, you're pretty limited in your selection.
