Wow thats a shitty deal, 360 has some really really nice collection of wheels... As long as they come through with customer satisfaction its all good. (and wheels dont fall apart like sevas lol)
One of the horror stories I read about on MBWorld was a customer who got his wheels after some long delay and when he looked on the back of the wheels, the fasteners were all rusted and there were mounting marks on the back of the hub as if those wheels were just taken off some other car. :thumbsdown:

Anyway, supposedly Forged Distributing is a new company that has taken over control of 360 Forged, Systems Forged and Modular Concepts and promised the re-org will address all the prior product and customer sat issues. A lot of people do not believe this story and believe that it's the same group of guys behind the scenes under the new name. So much drama.

Tony, how long did it take for your wheels when you ordered it?

8 weeks. Not bad compared to what others had to endure but still a bit longer than the 4-6 weeks that was promised.

The other issue I had was that I spec'd the wheels to be machined for big brake clearance but they didn't clear my Brembos in the rear. had to use 3mm spacers to barely squeak by. When I complained about it, they said that's normal.

I really like them, however, asking price is off the hook, no way to clear that past the wifey...

I think when he said "heavy", he meant to say they're "really deep" concaved and not heavy as in weight.

i wasnt talking about weight either, i understand he was saying a deep concave look is the way to go but he doesnt have a deep concave or even a concave look. i was just confused.

Definitely avoid 360 forged...the admin on the m5board even created a few sticky threads to warn their members
