Deep Concave: $9,869
TS Contoured: $10,600

^ ADV response to the wheels note being the same size:

he did, but they wouldnt offer him a full refund, only credit towards another set of wheels. They are dodgy as ****

But I guess you would expect such behavior from any shady business from Miami.

That's a lot of money for some rims! Not really understanding what you're trying to convey? What was the issue?

ehaze 04-25-12 08:39 AM

just sharing what i found when looking at these wheels.

was floored by the prices, then finding that the company/owner is shady.

OSU 04-25-12 08:48 AM

Okay. I clicked on the google link and I see the complaints. Needless to say, I'm sure you're staying away from them. Those prices are ridiculous! Did that even include tires, Lol?

custom stuff cost money now im not saying i am going to pay that but 5 g's and up for some custom 22's is really not much just dont pay retail. there not mass produced they are made in 3 pieces forged and if you give them dimension you get a set of wheels for your car hub bore offset all that.

OSU 04-25-12 08:57 AM

Well, I paid $6K for some Forgiatos with tires. They are 3 piece and they are 24s. You can get a 3 piece 22 with tires for way less than that.

Wow, that's about a 1/3 of what I paid for my entire LS vehicle...meh. Some of yall just ballin outta control and got it like that..more power to ya and props to your success!

FrankyBoy 04-25-12 09:15 AM

Wowzers!
 
And I thought the $4800 quote I got on VIP Modulars was too rich for me! 10k for some damn rims that will get curbed and scuffed up! I'll pass on that as well! I was always curious to how much they charged for wheels and know that I know, I will PASS ON THEM! THAT ISH CRAY!

Nat 04-25-12 09:28 AM

Maybe it's just my taste but I don't think any of their wheels looks good.

ehaze 04-25-12 11:17 AM

Nat, when it comes to modding cars...
i try to take the approach of to each his own.

try is the keyword!

Lextrician 04-25-12 11:36 AM

the question how much would drop on some HRE if u had an exotic???? dont think u would be too far from that price! them wheels. better come with free hand jobs for year for that price!!

Those prices are simply insane. If I was going to drop some serious coin (8-10k) on wheels ( would never happen) I would do JDM wheels . These guys must be smoking some serious stuff to think they will stay in business selling wheels like that. At least a company like HRE or BBS have a reputation and can charge like that. These guys are nuts. VOSSEN is popular for many reasons......pricing is simply one of the many

G-SharK 04-26-12 07:28 AM

The car in the pictures, looks like a Porsche so you know they are balling out of control. If you own a Porsche, you are expected to pay 5-15K for wheels. Wheel manufacture will hike the price on exotic cars.
