Decided to try out some new wheels after seeing Humberto's iForged Sprints.

To be a little different, went with iForged Imola in 24"x10" in brushed aluminum and chrome lip.

Size: 24"x10"
Build: 2 piece (no barrel bead to leak!)
Spokes: 10, brushed aluminum
Offset: +45mm, will run 25mm adapters, so +20mm offset (yes, very aggressive)
Bolt pattern: 5x120 (ours is 5x114.3)
Center bore: 72.56mm (ours is 66.1mm)
Lip: 3 inch front and rear, chrome
Adapter: custom 25mm aluminum with black anodizing, hub and wheel centric, 12x1.25 thread. No shaving of OEM studs needed.
Weight: 38 lbs per wheel, 40lbs shipping weight (pretty happy about that)

Tires (haven't fully decided, maybe try 295/35/24 -- but on a dropped FX, probably will not clear inner front strut).
285/30ZR24
Pirelli PZero Nero M&S Ultra High Performance All Season
400 AA A
103W XL (103 load index = 1929 lbs, W rated = 168mph)
Overal diameter: 30.7"
weight: 32 lbs/each
rim width range: 9.5-11"

Set of steel inserts in case I ever want to slightly CNC mill press drill the existing holes. Not sure if the tires would clear the front H&R spring unless I went coilovers with the +45mm offset so decided on adapters.

This was a set that was in stock and no wait time, so I jumped on it.

Awesome looking rims dude ! but wont 24's rub?? Yea i wouldnt recomend the chrome rims though ... a matte finish on these specific rims would amzinggggg ... prefferably hyper-gunmetal ... wow now i want those :P ... but no more money after the supercharger :wub: ....

Good choice on the tires ... i have alot of respect for pirelli p-zero:wink: ... cant wait to see how this will turn out good luck man!!
 
Thanks, 285/30/24 won't rub, A larger, wider tire might.

I probably will stay safe and just get 285/30/24.

Those wheels are beautiful chedman!!:tup::tup:
with a 10"s wide you could easily go with a 255/35/24 or 255/30/24 im running a 265 on a 10.5 wheel with much more tire to go. I would say if you want to be safe while being lowered i would try those sizes on for a fit def if your gonna run spacers. 24's on these cars:smug: look good i think so hurry up and buy them and get em on so we can see dammit!!!!

and if they make a 265/30-35 I bet those will work too
 
Thanks.

255/35/24 and 255/30/24 is too narrow and thin of a tire for Chicago=)

285/30/24 is the thinnest/narrowest I'll go. So that or either 285/35/24, 295/30/24 or 295/35/24.

This is where I want coil overs for the narrow spring in the front instead of a huge strut mount with wide spring.

I really have enough tire height.

Cars run thinner, that's the beauty of a car coming stock with 20's.

I will keep it classy with a good tire height, don't worry Pierce.

Tires won't look like rubber bands.

I run 40 psi cold on 22's, I should be fine :wink (2):

I'll have the Chicago crew test drive too to give unbiased feedback.

I don't know about ride quality with 24s but I definitely think they will look great. :tup:
