ISS / ISF Special Edition Wheels
LOL... That's what we all say in the Beginning... Then one Year down the line, Blamo a new set of wheels on the car. Most car enthusiast can seem to control themselves in modifying their cars no matter how hard we try... You have a Viper and a ISF... Brother you are an enthusiast. This might not be the product for you and that is understandable, to be honest this product is not for everyone hence the limited production run. When ever your ready for a set of wheels let me know. We will put you together with the right product for you or recommend you to someone that can get you what you want.
That is a beautiful looking wheel.
However, I've got to say that the problem for me is giving up the excellent BBS stockers. I replaced my Viper OEM wheels with Forgeline VR3Ps for better looks and performance due to 8 lbs. per wheel weight savings and proven track durability. IMO, the IS F BBS wheels are great looking and track ready and just too nice to spend $6500 replacing them.

Can you educate me a little on wheels and your manufacturing process?
What are the benefits of 1 piece forged versus 3 piece forged? What are the advantages and disadvantages of both?
What alloy do you use in your wheels?
Do you have any wheels that resemble the spoke pattern in the BBS LMs?

Damage I think people are just responding because they don't see things your way. Everybody is entitled to their opinion as are you. I feel we are getting off topic. ( ISS Forged IS-F Special Edition Wheel ). Concerning your questions, feel free to go to our web site ISSFORGED.COM and all the information needed if there. Thanks dude.

No problem dude. 1 Piece Forged is just that, a wheel forged and cut from 1 piece. A 3 piece wheel is composed of 3 pieces 1 the center disk and 2 barrels inner and outer. Most forged wheels are manufactured using 6061-t6 tempered aluminum. I will post some pics of the components used to build a 3 piece wheel on Monday when I get back to the office to give you a better idea of what they look like apart... On the website there is also a little bit about why forging is better then casting and so on.

just regarding pricing, im not here to bash or anything, but starting as a newer company, wouldnt you try to have lower prices to ge the name out there and once you have a more established name and product out there, then you can raise the price for the "name" like other brands?
I know you have the exhaust for the IS-F and all that....not my cup of tea, but i hear great things about it. nice to see a local company doing things though.

Hate to play devil's advocate here or be the bearer of bad news but are you crazy????
At $6500 you can buy a ton of other wheels....I wonder who here will really open their wallet for that kind of money! Lotsa talk but highly doubt you're going to sell any.
Let's see....$6500 you can buy:
A set of 20" BBS LM's
HRE's, NEEZ, Fikse, etc.....

Nice marketing ploy 
But everything you are saying is nothing new to be frank.No wheel is better than BBS / Volk / Work in terms of racing heritage and experience!
