Arguably the most significant vehicle to emerge in recent years is the new C7 Corvette. Forgeline is very serious about perfecting wheel fitment on the C7, so it only makes sense that we would put one in our own stable of vehicles. So our latest project car is this 2LT Z51 in Arctic White with the Adrenaline Red interior. This is the same C7 that was built and exhibited at the 2013 SEMA Show by Whiteside Customs. As of January 2014, it is lowered to the limit of the factory adjustment and is equipped with Kooks headers and 19/20 inch Forgeline one piece forged monoblock RB1 wheels finished in Transparent Smoke. Looking for the absolute best wheels for your own C7? You can trust Forgeline to deliver the perfect C7 fitment! See More...

New Polished & Brushed Finish
Our new Polished and Brushed finish is a beautiful two-tone finish comprised of three separate steps. First, the wheel (either three piece center or entire one piece forged monoblock) is fully polished. Then the outer face of the wheel is brushed to knock off some of the shine and create a clean and sophisticated industrial look. Then the entire wheel is covered with a protective clear powder coat. The final result is a durable finish that looks brushed on the face while retaining the full shiny polish on every other surface.
The Polished & Brushed finish is an optional finish now available on all three piece centers for $250 each and one piece monoblock wheels for $350 each.

RealTime Debuts New Acura TLX GT
RealTime Racing's new 2015 Acura TLX World Challenge GT-class race car debuted at the 2014 North American International Auto Show, in Detroit, alongside the new 2015 Acura TLX Production Prototype. RealTime's purpose-built race car features a HPD chassis with enhanced aerodynamic performance parts and is powered by a direct-injected twin-turbocharged V6 engine that sends power through an all-wheel drive system. Their Forgeline one piece forged monoblock GA1R Open Lug wheels were chosen for their superior balance of mass, deflection stiffness, and fatigue strength.
2014 will mark Acura's first season in the World Challenge GT category since 2002, when the RealTime team campaigned their famous Acura NSX. Though the GT class is extremely competitive, the RealTime team has its own extensive history of success to serve as a foundation. "In 27 years of racing Hondas and Acuras, we've shown that we know what it takes to win," said team principal Peter Cunningham. "We won Acura's first Manufacturers' Championship in 1998 with the Integra Type R, and most recently, its 10th title in 2012 with the TSX. Our team is dedicated to continuing this winning tradition with the TLX."
Forgeline is excited to see our GA1R Open Lug wheels compete in the GT class. We wish RealTime the best of luck this season, and we thank them for trusting Forgeline to carry the load!
