D,

After all that coilover talk, I forgot to give you some Iforged customer service feedback! Ask Manaray about delivery and production times when you communicate with him. As Dingo posted there have been some horror stories!! LOL

In the 18" size, you have lots of other great options as well! You can get the Zaubers from GS4Will and they will be about the same price as the iForged.

I saw you earlier note the price of the iForged were expensive. Although I am not about to hang out the price, , it is about the average price of a imported set of WORK rims. Compared to HRE, the similar styling that iForged has is almost the same with a lesser cost but more.. how should I say.. unproven customer service and delivery time. I'm sure with time this will improve though. Just wanted to update on the price

Good point Cap, I guess I should have been more clear, compared to HRE's iForged are a GREAT deal, probaly 1-3k less. But compared to other brands, Moda, Mille Miglia, etc, they are expensive! I always think in 20" so I'm not really sure how 18" pricing goes.

I guess an iForged 18" chrome staggered package with tires would go for about 2500-3000k??

True, True. Chrome always increases it quite a bit.
