When you bend your wheel...
It sure is nice to be able to just order a replacement barrel and swap it out real quick. Total down time about 1 hour including the trip to my local Discount Tire to use their touchless mounting machine to swap the Michelin rubber over.
My left front BC Forged HC-S03 hit a grapefuit sized rock in the roadway from a construction site driveway about a month ago. Heaved up over it hard enough my head hit the headlining. I've had a case of the shakez since, while I waited on BC to manufacture and ship the replacement barrel. |

Forgiato made a polycarbonate centered wheel years ago, stupid money and I think it was a short lived fad, but if you wanted a clear face they can make it :-)

agree! one of the great things about having a 3 piece forged wheel is if it gets damaged you have a pretty good chance of it getting repaired/swapped whether it's the face, lip (what the wifey did on mine) or the barrel!

Does the F10 have any issue when putting on a larger diameter wheel and a wider wheel?
Trans adaption, diff or DSC issues? I am going to upgrade my LCI base RWD model 18" squared wheels to the 19" staggered oem setup..
