I love the DEEP Concave LOOK of this wheel, but don't trust the company

With all the bad rep they are getting on every forum with their associate with 360forged in Miami I'm not about to spend $$$ for their wheels.

My question is does any OTHER companies offer this style wheel?

Yeah, I see that a lot but its part of their marketing to get the awareness out. I'm pretty sure you know the story behind it the companies. I can however recommend a credible dealer that will get you the wheels if you want to purchase them. PM me and I can address you to the proper company.

For a wheel company they take the most retarded pics. Never a direct shot of the wheels. Always at some horrid angle. And just being associated with 360 makes me puke. I hated their spamming practices.

I think their photography is great. A direct shot is so boring. 360 is under new management.

under new management, but is it still the same owner?

bc then the practices dont change just the scapegoat.

Jordan got fired from 360 and that's why he's starting Advance 1 and has GMP Performance & Active Autowerke being the exclusive distributors...

You should read a couple thread's (Actually ALL the threads) in m3post.com/e90post.com about 360/Adv.1

They say there's a promise time of 3-4 weeks for delivery yet one local that's really good friends with Jordan/AA got his set in 2 weeks

BTW, half of that forum doesn't even want to deal with AA anymore just because they are dealing with Jordan himself

I just purchased 360 Forged wheels through ISS. I'm not going to get into a debate or defend 360 Forged at all. I'll just post my experience and let you decide.

I too was very very sceptical and worried about ordering their wheels based on all the problems I saw. From my research and speaking w/ 360 and other individuals in the 'Miami wheel industry', I found out that Jordan, the problematic owner of 360 is no longer there. That and the fact that the new ownership "Forged Distributing" post on their site that wheels are guaranteed to be delivered in 3-5 weeks or your money back, no questions asked I went ahead with the purchase. Janoy @ ISS answered all my questions and was EXTREMELY helpfull!

Anyway, long story short I wound up going through ISS, and right on schedule my wheels are being delivered today, literally today (10/23). ISS was awsome to deal with and even gave me these step by step pictures of the progress of my wheels.

Here's the thread I dedicated to my wheels in the 250/350 section if you care to read through it:
http://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-s...customize.html

1 month update (10/12), centers are forged:

(10/15) centers are clear coat finished:

(10/19) centers are assembled to barrels:

(10/23) Delivery date! "on truck for delivery" - I'm working from home rigth now sitting around waiting for my UPS guy to get here. Its crossed my mind once or twice to jump in my car and go hunt him down I'm so excited... lol.

So thats my experience. A very positive one! By the way Janoy @ ISS is the one that hooked me up with all these updates & pictures. Thanks again Janoy! But I know Janoy was working closley with 360 Forged so they were ovbiously involved too.

All in all, I would say confident you'll be taken care of. I was!
