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.

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?

huh? No, I was just asking you so I could learn more about wheels along with what you offer too. You mentioned your company will be coming out with 1 piece forged wheels later so I wanted to know what are the differences between 1 or 3 piece forged.

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.
