Sundevil---what made you go with the 19X11 fronts? I ask that because I ordered the forgeline in 19X10 (stock width ) and now i see alot of people running the 11 inch rim.
(I know plenty of people were running the 11 when i ordered but)
I'm thinking maybe i should have went with the 11 inch rim to have more of a lip, maybe not. That seems to be the only reason i would have went wider. I'm still waiting on FED EX to deliver my rims so i actually have never seen the rim i ordered in person so it maybe just perfect:)

The 11inch front gives you more of a contact patch than a 10 or 10.5. That is primarily the main reason. The lip difference is probably when its said and done not impacted all that much. The set up you have will likely be great. But going to 11 inch is just overkill. I am all about overkill. That is why I bought a Viper.:D

Those are incredible. I saw a similar wheel with a yellow lip and black center on a yellow Ferarri 360 and almost broke my neck turning to look at it. Very nice.

yes, red rim. Going with the Invo's on a 10" front rim. I almost did an 11" front and the pirelli's, but JonB says I will probably have problems with rubbing the inner wheel well on full locked turning.

don't know anything about the full locked turn rubbing issue.

I went with the pirellis 275/30/19 on the front and these tires are so quiet compared to the stock runflats. not sure about the invo's but i can say night and day difference in ride quality. thats my pirelli .02

Since NineBall set a new precedent with his white wheels, I am thinking of going with these wheels on my red vert. Wanted to see what you guys think? Am I totally crazy?

I have a friend who has a black ACR with dual red stripes on order and she is putting the exact same wheels on her car. I think they will look great.
