Set of four new in box Forgestar F14 18x11 wheels in Anthracite.
These are the Vorshlag staggered offset wheels they offered for a number of years.
Never been on the Mustang and never had a set of tires mounted.
No nicks, scratches, dings, etc.

$1300 Local pickup or shipped on your dime

Trying to get these built these days takes an act of congress. They are a great setup.

So what is the offset on these?

 

[Pentalab]

Yes, what is the offset ? I'm assuming the rear offset is greater than the front offset.

IIRC - Forgestar/Vorshlag kept those details on the DL, I recall looking when they were available and the details were "proprietary"

Whoever buys em, could easily measure the offset....then spill the beans.

Are these still available? Are the fronts also deep concave?

 

[oldVOR]

Yes, wheels are available and all four are deep concave

 

[blackedGT]

OldVOR what can you do shipped to California for the wheels? Thanks.

 

[oldVOR]

Let me know a city and zip code so I can get some shipping rates

 

[blackedGT]

Castro valley,CA 94546

Shipping hasn't gotten any less expensive....
FedEx is $120 per wheel ($480 for all 4)
UPS is $110 per wheel ($440 for all 4)

I'm waiting for a response on freight shipping quotes which might be less but will require I palletize and drop them off at a local shipping depot and you pick them up at a local shipping depot. Since the wheels will be palletized they won't get banged around during shipping and will arrive without any damage vs individual box parcel shipping.

 

[blackedGT]

OldVOR thank you for the shipping information. I also agree with you about them being palletized to prevent them getting damaged. I’ll wait to see what you find about freight shipping. Thank you again.

Use this for shipping quotes. It will be cheaper for sure. https://www.pirateship.com/

The box they came in is plenty good to reship them in. Maybe add more filler or another layer of cardboard on the face if you want. Tape them up good. A pallet is good too but put something on top because other pallets will be stacked on top of it.

These are awesome wheels. I can't believe that they aren't already sold. I'd buy them but I already have a set.

 

[oldVOR]

Freight quotes came back:
T-Force Freight $357
FedEx Freight $379
There were several more that were $75+ higher in costs.
That's terminal to terminal using a 40x48 pallet that I estimated at 35 pounds.

Per Racer47, I checked with Pirateship and their rates were really good.
I had to use an actual address for the Pirateship quote and picked one off of Google Maps in Castro Valley for the quote.
Pirateship came in at $58.93 per wheel ($236 for all four) - UPS Ground
I checked for two boxes taped together and the rate is slightly better at $108.88 ($218 for all four) - UPS Ground
IIRC, Vorshlag shipped them to me with two boxes taped together.

 

[Racer47]

If you send them to a UPS store the rate should be lower still. Plus then the wheels aren't outside and/or you don't need to be home to make sure they don't get stolen

Just checked, shipping cost didn't change sending to the local UPS Store.
However, do like the idea the wheels being under lock and key vs open to porch pirates.
