My new Forgeline wheels
So I just purchased a set of these wheels in 19 x 9's and 19x 10's for my new Boss.They are also the correct off sets 42 and 45.I am familiar with Forgeline thru my Porsche racing days..They are currently running wheels in Grand Am.The wheels are 18 and 19lbs each! An excellent wheel! I am very excited that they are making them for the Boss!See ya unsprung weight!

They look great Ron. And the weight savings is amazing! What color do you plan on going with? I think with your SBY the matte black wheels would look outstanding...
I have been looking for a lightweight 19in rim but everything I have seen have been out of my budget. I need to work harder...

Did you consider Forgestars? Not as light as the Forgeline but not bad especially compared to the OEM weights and a set will only set you back around $1500.

I've seen a multitude of 997s on the track with Forgestars and a bunch of M3s. I've never seen an issue with Forgestars. To each his own..
Here is a GMG prepped track car that is running F14s in 18" diamater.
