Our quality standards and product is at PAR with HRE and BBS, so it all come down to style and service. BBS and HRE were new companies at one point.

You can see a set of HRE or BBS wheels anywhere. But show up to hangout with something that no one has ever seen and people's heads turn. These are basically sneakers for cars. Every one loves Nike's, but when you have a rare set on, everybody goes OHHHHHH those are cool. I guess that's why you see so many new wheel companies. People have a need to be different.

We are also releasing a Sport Compact Line that will be in the $3500 range for a set of 20's. We know not everyone has 5k to drop on a set of wheels.

This is first time I heard of your company, and you already gave me a great impression of what your company is about. A comment by S4Play was pretty harsh but you replied in a "very professional/mature manner" as well as stating the reason behind the price.

I'll definitely keep your company in my mod contact list.

I spent the same amount on mine with a company I never heard of. Did some research, talked to a few people, and did it. custom cut, custom color, entirely happy. I was leaning towards Forgiato, but I know I have just as good a wheel that was crafted for me personally. These guys at ISS are craftsmen willing to take open requests. this is how the high-end aftermarket works. This wheel sounds incredible.

Thanks for the input, it is much appreciated.


Ummm....BBS they come stock and designed to Lexus specs.


BTW those rims are HOT!

Again that rim is HOT! I hope give a good discount on the price though because like Nike people also recognize brand names.

Just sayin.

Give me a discount and I will make my car a rolling billboard for your company!

BBS indeed DO come stock on the IS-F but what he was referring to was more like HRE's, iForged, and BBS (LM's, RS-GT's, etc.)

ISS Forged isnt making OEM wheels here...

They are making aftermarket 3 Piece Forged aluminum wheels for those enthusiasts with lets say an IS-F that want to drive their car around with a nice aftermarket wheel set-up or for those who prefer a lip on their wheels and once again are designed to Lexus specs

Got it. Did I mention those rims look HOT!!

If they keep the pricing competitive maybe a little cheaper they will have a winner.
