They probably could, but I wouldn't risk it since it take forgestar a lifetime to send wheels.

^+1 they are too nice to risk it at that price, the worst thing about snow is the salt they use, it just eats up on most CC and then all the debris

YEA i hate the salt they use now. It is the biggest concern about the F14. Also, it will even get the HFC and the oem Y pipe to be rusty..

yeah if you go back to the 17" then you would have to raise the height a little. maybe .8" front and .5" rear plus the taller side walls should help raise the car a little more

i guess if the snow really comes hard, i will just stay the G in the garage since I dont wanna scratch all the hell down the whole exhaust piping lol(got back experience before when the snow was as high as 5-10cm, the Y pipe of my car just fell of since the snow cracked the brackets off ).
I will try to raise a little bit by mon and tues lol..

hows the weather in NY ??

roads are cleared up, but snows not going anywhere haha too cold! Supposed to snow tomorrow also. My car will be sitting in the carport until snow is gone haha.


Ya i would suggest raising your car or not driving it. I could barley get around when i put the 17's back on, so i picked up a set of oem g37 19's as my new winter set up.
