New Wheels.. finally

Post by almoRS » Wed Nov 16, 2016 3:59 pm

So after a lot debating over wheel brands and some cancelled orders I finally got a new set of fully forged wheels from BC Forged UK.

They are BC Forged HS04 21"x10.5" in brushed black. The quality and finish on these wheels is fantastic and I think they really work on the C7.

Cheers

Al

Standard offset (ET25) with wheels that are an inch wider than OEM means they will protrude 13mm closer to the suspension and stick out 13mm more on the oustide too.

Yeah I did the maths before I ordered them and wanted the aggressive concave look. Drove 500 miles home after fitting and no issues. Happy Days :thumbs:

Love the dish. Love the wheels. And I don't normally like after market ones - but then I love the dish on the 20s. May I ask how much? And are you running standard sized tyres?
