Our New Centerlock Option for 997.2 GT3, GT3-RS and Turbo!

We have been working diligently for the past few months to bring you something that no other wheel manufacturer has yet to offer for the crowd with factory centerlock wheels. FORGELINE now offers Centerlock Wheel Option from our line-up of models. Worried about caliper clearance? - We've got that covered. The same R&D that we invest into the Daytona Prototype as well as any professionally sanctioned motorsports series we are involved in was vested into our public line-up. We now offer and are ready to take orders on 18' and 19' Centerlock wheels. Both the 18' and 19' will clear the PCCB brakes.

For the 18' crowd, sizes are available in 18x9 and 18x12 from our ZX3R and WC3R models. For the 19' crowd, we can offer the Centerlock option on any model as the 19' was the first size in development. The photo below is a 19' DE3S on a 997.2 GT3. Why swap out your wheels? We all know that modifying your wheels enhances the looks of the car but our setup will also give it a more aggressive stance to enhance grip and traction but more importantly, will play a functional role in reducing weight in rotational mass. Reducing unsprung weight will increase acceleration response, increase fuel economy and give you improved balance. The typical 19' setup will be 19x8.5 for the front which weighs in around 22lbs per wheel and 19x12 for the rear which weighs in at about 25lbs per wheel.

Every one of our 3-piece wheels are constructed from 6061-T6 FORGED centers, 6061-T6 spun rim halves and utilize stainless steel aircraft-grade fasteners. We understand that with every personality comes individualism, which is why we offer a wide array of versatile options with finishes, accessories and fitment. Please feel free to PM us with any questions!

Unfortunately this is the only wheel that has been made so far other than an 18' for testing purposes. We have one full set that is being made right now for a partner and should get photos of it very soon. We didn't want to pull the trigger on putting this out there so early without the proper material but being that it's race season, we wanted to ensure the guys with centerlock P-Car's that they do have an option. More images are soon to come!

18x9 / 18x12 setup would weigh in at 19lbs front / 21lbs rear. Please shoot me a PM on what you're looking for I can give you a quote. Thanks!
