Forgestar CF5V 20x12 | 5x120.65 Bolt Pattern | ET50 | 8.5" Backspace | 70.3mm CB | Satin Black (F22202062P50)
Forgestar CF5V 20x12 | 5x120.65 Bolt Pattern | ET50 Offset | 8.5" Backspace | 70.3mm Centre Bore | Satin Black | Flow-Formed Deep Concave
The Forgestar CF5V in 20x12 with 5x120.65 bolt pattern, ET50 offset, 8.5" backspace, 70.3mm centre bore, and satin black finish is a flow-formed deep-concave 5-spoke wheel in a wide, aggressive rear fitment specification — engineered for the classic American muscle and performance car bolt pattern and correct for staggered rear fitments on the Chevrolet Corvette (C5/C6), Camaro (4th/5th gen), and other GM performance platforms using the 5x120.65 (5x4.75") bolt pattern. The 20x12 ET50 specification is a wide, deep rear wheel fitment that maximizes tyre contact patch and visual presence on the rear of these platforms — a specification commonly used in staggered fitment builds where a narrower front wheel (such as the 19x10 ET30) is paired with this wider rear unit. Forgestar is one of the most respected flow-formed wheel brands in the North American performance market — known for their CF series wheels that deliver the appearance of a forged wheel at a flow-formed price point.
Key Features:
- CF5V design — Forgestar's CF5V deep-concave 5-spoke V-spoke wheel design — an aggressive, motorsport-inspired face profile with deep concave dish that creates a premium wheel appearance — the deep concave is maximized on the 20x12 wide body
- Flow-formed construction — flow-formed manufacturing process — the barrel is formed under high pressure while spinning, aligning the aluminium grain structure for improved strength and reduced weight compared to standard cast wheels
- 20x12 sizing — 20" diameter, 12" width — a very wide, aggressive rear fitment that maximizes tyre contact patch and visual presence on 5x120.65 performance platforms
- 5x120.65 bolt pattern — the classic American muscle bolt pattern (also expressed as 5x4.75") — correct for Chevrolet Corvette C5/C6, Camaro 4th/5th gen, and other GM performance platforms
- ET50 offset — 50mm positive offset — positions the wheel face 50mm outboard of the wheel's centreline — the correct offset for a 12" wide rear wheel on these platforms to maintain correct wheel well clearance
- 8.5" backspace — 8.5" of backspace — the distance from the wheel's mounting face to the inner lip — verify correct fitment with your specific vehicle's inner wheel well clearance
- 70.3mm centre bore — correct for GM 5x120.65 hub diameter — verify your specific vehicle's hub diameter before ordering
- Satin black finish — satin black powder coat finish — a premium, low-gloss black appearance that suits a wide range of vehicle colours and build aesthetics
- Forgestar quality — manufactured by Forgestar, one of the most respected flow-formed wheel brands in the North American performance market
20x12 ET50 — Staggered Rear Fitment Context:
The 20x12 ET50 specification is a wide rear wheel fitment designed for staggered wheel setups on the Corvette, Camaro, and other 5x120.65 platforms. In a staggered fitment, the rear wheels are wider than the front wheels — a setup that maximizes rear tyre contact patch for improved traction and creates an aggressive, wide-body appearance. The 20x12 ET50 is commonly paired with a narrower front wheel (such as the Forgestar CF5V 19x10 ET30) for a complete staggered fitment. The ET50 offset on a 12" wide wheel positions the tyre correctly within the rear wheel well of these platforms — verify fitment with your specific vehicle's suspension geometry, brake caliper clearance, and wheel well dimensions before ordering.
Flow-Formed Construction — Why It Matters:
Flow-forming uses a high-pressure spinning operation on the cast wheel barrel to align the aluminium grain structure — increasing tensile strength and allowing thinner barrel walls without sacrificing strength. The result is a wheel that is significantly lighter than a comparable standard cast wheel, with improved impact resistance and fatigue strength. On a 20x12 wheel where weight is a significant factor, flow-formed construction provides a meaningful weight advantage over standard casting.

- Note: This listing is for a single wheel. Verify correct offset, backspace, and centre bore for your specific vehicle before ordering. Verify rear wheel well clearance and brake caliper clearance with the 20x12 ET50 fitment on your specific vehicle — a 12" wide wheel requires careful fitment verification. Hub-centric rings may be required if your vehicle's hub diameter differs from 70.3mm. A professional wheel fitment specialist should verify correct fitment before installation.
What's Included:
- 1x Forgestar CF5V 20x12 — 5x120.65 — ET50 — 8.5" BS — 70.3mm CB — Satin Black (FRGF22202062P50)
- Centre cap — refer to Forgestar's product documentation for included hardware
Installation Notes:
- Professional installation by an experienced wheel and tyre specialist strongly recommended — a 20x12 wide rear wheel requires careful fitment verification before installation
- Verify rear wheel well clearance — a 12" wide wheel with ET50 offset requires verification of inner and outer wheel well clearance with your specific vehicle's suspension at full compression and full steering lock
- Verify brake caliper clearance before installation
- Verify correct torque specification for your vehicle's wheel fasteners — use a calibrated torque wrench
- Re-torque wheel fasteners after the first 50–100km of driving following installation
- Hub-centric rings may be required if your vehicle's hub diameter differs from 70.3mm
- A four-wheel alignment is recommended after wheel and tyre changes
