The avants are cast not forged I believe .
You are correct they are low pressure cast, they do have a fully forged line as well.

Can you do an Avante Garde M310 in:
~ 19x09.5 with 40mm offset, with 285's fronts
~ 19x11.0 with 33mm offset, with 305's rear

For a 2015 Mustang Ecoboost NON-PP package (small brakes).

The 19x11 doesnt come in the proper offset its a ET 18 which is way to aggressive for the S550. You would need something like a Et 51-55 for the rear

Things With Wheels
Because the guys selling them on the forum won't break out the wheels from the tires. Everyone who needs two complete sets of summer-only tires raise your hands. Yeah, me neither.

I've offered about half of OEM for the wheels w/lugs and TPMS, with me paying for shipping, and been laughed out of the thread. They'll be lucky to get half that for the wheel/tire combo, if they don't get rid of them quick.
I'll be glad to get rid of those black PP eyesores the instant my car lands, sans tires. :D

I think the Portier is one of those wheels that looks awesome by itself, but not as good as you think it will on the car. Partially because that type of spoke design makes the wheels look a little smaller than they actually are. But who knows, maybe they will look really great. Can't wait to start to see these new TSW wheels on some S550's.

One other thing: Look at the end of each spoke. You see the gap between it and the lip? They will be a little bit of a PITA to keep clean.

Im going to be posting up images of the Portier once it arrives when we do the test fits with TSW at our shop for everyone.

That, and the Bathurst - any idea when you expect to get them?
TSW is saying wheels should arrive in about 2 weeks ( fingers crossed) so just waiting at the moment.

Nothing on timing for the Bathursts or Portiers, yet?
No not yet, ports have slowed down due to a strike issue between the long shore men and the ship owners so the port is not going as fast as they normally do, so this has caused some delays and slow downs.
