How's the quality of Forged Specialties wheels? Their FS-M20 wheels looks great....

lemansz20 · 10-26-2010, 01:57 PM

I have seen them in person, and you could not be more right. THey are GORGEOUS, I am all over the Z forum and I messaged the guy who has them on his Z. He says he loves them, his direct words were "The pricing insane, and quality is amazing". Lol I was laughing, called him a bit obsessed, but they are nice.

Kind of reminds me of the BBS ones, but without the price tag haha. I vote do it, the guy said that they the pricing us so much better then comparable companies that he jumped on it.

Took this from their website lol so we can all

together haha.

CamaroDreams07 · 10-26-2010, 08:29 PM

So what is the pricing?

ddunerider · 10-27-2010, 12:07 AM

Looks like about $820.00 a wheel......

CamaroDreams07 · 10-27-2010, 12:31 AM

Holy crap. Exactly what wheels are these priced so much better than. Lol, it makes me feel bad when people say that's a cheap price and I'm looking for something about 40% of that

I guess it's 'cheap' compared to other wheels at the same quality level. Of course you can get cheap wheels that cost around or less than $300/wheel, but after seeing some horror pics a member posted here I'm not gonna go with cheap wheels, either the stock wheels or quality wheels.

The pic above was posted by IBM/2SS/RS/LS3 , that's what happened to his Konig wheels....

lemansz20 · 10-27-2010, 10:15 AM

WOW, that pic is crazy, I mean their is always a story behind wheels though. Guys being the champion I have and having no life, I contacted the dealer that sells them on the nissan forum. The guy quoted me, but I am not sure of the policy on the forum so Ill wait or pm me.

Though I am not sure if this matters, they are looking to do a little below cost deal for a couple of cars. I already sent them an email, but I am wanting to know the details. From what I got from the dealer was, they give you a good cost deal, and you just need to take some pictures for them, thats a pretty sweet trade off. I emailed them already, so if I hear something I will let you guys know.

2010SS · 10-27-2010, 09:00 PM

That mesh wheel looks nice. Whats a set costing to Ga?

sw5thgen · 10-27-2010, 09:34 PM

apparently the wheels are being made in china.. you can contact the factory directly and purchase them: ye ming ye1966@163.com

if you look closely at the rivets those are the same ones that come from all wheels made in china.. the photos attached show a replica forgiato made at the same factory

lemansz20 · 10-27-2010, 09:55 PM

Actually common misconception, I know alot of guys in the wheel business. Hardware is apparently an option, most use the cheaper screws from what I understand. From what I have been told from talking to Asanti, Forgiato and stuff, is you have your choice apparently. You pay extra, but that is what I have heard.

Also thats definately NOT an forgiato replica lol. That is the real deal, pretty crazy looking wheel, that matte black. The other one lol not so much. Believe me, I might as well work for one of these guys, b/c a good friend of mine works for axis and I hear all the news haha. Some people just go by what they see on the internet instead of knowing facts.
