Lightbulb << Wheel Studio presents SAVINI FORGED to ClubLex! >>

Wheel Studio (based in Santa Fe Springs, CA) has been online for 5 years and we pride ourselves with being custom fitment experts ~ coupled with a truly custom made 3-piece forged wheel, and you've got the best possible fitment for your luxury/exotic.

As Savini's largest online distributor, Wheel Studio is proud to bring Savini Styling Group's 2010 lineup to Club Lexus!

I hate long posts for something as visual as wheels, so I'll get right to it. We've hosted their 2010 catalog online, click the centerfold pic to download it in all it's glory (4mb PDF). Their website is www.SaviniForged.com.


As you can see, they've got 5 brands and a bunch of styles, but here's what you need to know:
*Signature Series: These are where it all started in 2003, fully forged 6061 T5 aluminum centers with spun forged barrels, cut and assembled right here in Southern California - drilled for your bolt pattern and shaved for your offset when you order, so you know the fitment will be custom-tailored for your car! Available in 19", 20", 22", and 24".
*XLT Series: The XLT series gives the 3-piece community what it's always asked for - more lip! Almost every wheel that comes out of Savini's doors is an XLT-series wheel, offering 2" more lip at the same effective offset. We're talking 4"-5" lips on front and 5"-6" on the back of your GS/IS/LS's, up to 7" on other applications (widebody anyone?), and the same top-of-the-line materials and processes used in the Signature Series. Available in 19", 20", 22", and 24".
*Mono di Forza: This is where the performance market gets dropped on it's ear ~ theMono di Forza series are the first one-piece monoblocks from Savini, just released at their SEMA booth this year, are designed in house and track-tested right here at Willow Springs - these 4 new designs are available in 18", 19", 20" and 22" and are incredibly light - the 20x11" that their Password: JDM GTR track car has on all 4 corners weighs in at 23lbs even! More finished weights and application photos will be coming as they ramp up production on these.

All wheels available in any size, any finish ~ including real 2x2 carbon fiber overlaid face, lip, or both

Some of our favorite wheels and Lexus fitments will be updated tomorrow ~ and special forum pricing will be rolling through Jan 2010

Let me know what you guys think!

I wanna see a set of sv3 or similar on a 95-00 LS400. That's what I got. And I'd like to know how much a set of staggered 19" sv3 (brushed face, polished lip) would be shipped to 98036. Thanks for your time.

Thanks for the interest! I'll see what I can dig up in LS400 pictures.

We just did a really clean set of SV3s's (XLT) in Brushed face with Matte Black lips, they looked incredible. Expect a PM from me regarding pricing this morning

I've got to wait for my photographer to get here this afternoon, I think the photos are on his computer... in the meantime, another hot LS430 to tide you over?

22" SV15 in Brushed with Chrome lips, I love the fitment for a stock car!

I'll let you put some wheels on my car for pics.

But you can't have them back afterwards.

What an offer!! It looks like you've got some sweet wheels, come back when you're ready to trade up to 3pc forged

Mahalo Pete! Aloha!


One of the other sweet lines that Savini unveiled at SEMA this year is their Mono di Forza series 1pc monoblocks. I've tried not to pump these up too much, since we don't have any 18" or 19" billet blanks made yet (we're machining up to that right now), but like I said in the intro post, the 20x11" wheels we put on the Nissan GTR in our booth weighed in at 23.0lbs! All 4 designs have deep concave faces too! I'll try and get some better pics up in the next few days...

Like all of our wheels, we can do any style in any finish!

Wow, no one has commented on my Mono series?! Super concave, 1pc forged monoblocks made right here in the USA for hundreds of dollars less than the competition...

I also wanted to point you guys over to our "Holiday Blowout" thread, where selected designs of Savini wheels are on heavy discount ~ check it out!
