I am just saying if I am gonna go aftermarket, I am gonna go with something other than 5 spoke. They are nice wheels, but 5 spokes are very common. IMO

I hear ya not knocking where they are made I read sv1 was the same sevas company and I've seen a few wheels of theirs cracked on various forums and by the way:

Company History:

Forgiato was launched in 2005. In 2002, We started by importing wheels from the far East. unhappy with the quality product we were getting, In 2006 we sold our import business and moved forward to pursue our goal to offer the Forgiato line to the most extreme high end vehicle owners.

We have combined our knowledge of the art of jewelry manufacturing with technological advancements in CNC automation. We use all American Alloy Parts. The end result is… Wheels that look and perform like fine Piaget watches… Proudly made in the USA using all American parts.

We were in 2005 and continue to be proud to announce and produce the line of 3-piece Forgiato Wheels. Manufactured to exacting tolerances, Forgiato offers the discriminating auto enthusiast an unrivaled choice in expression, performance and reliability. Forgiato combines a leading design philosophy with modern construction technology. High grade Aluminum inner and outer halves along with forged 6061t6 heat-treated CNC machined centers bring those ideas to life. All done in house in our California Facility….

Importer in 2002, Forgiato in 2005…

We continue to Move forward..
in 2007 Forgiato Produced Radurra “The Clear Wheel”
In 2008, Parlaro “The one spoke wheel” was introduced by Forgiato

Forgiato The Very Best in 3-Piece Wheel Construction.

Forgiato uses forged aluminum parts to custom manufacture 3-piece wheels for your vehicle.
Each wheel is manufactured to the exact specifications the end user requires, such as a
replacement of the standard original wheel or one for an exotic, one-of-a kind fitment and finish.
