1.Out of those 2, I would say Vienna
2. H8R is sexy
3. Stay away from sevas... their wheels are knowen to fall apart!

I am looking at 360 forged too. I like the mesh 8 mesh 10 and the multi spec.

what do you think about brush center with a black lip on a Titanium Silver car.

Really that sucks those are some of my favorites. Fall apart how? Do you mean literally fall apart? I tried to check their website and it was not there anymore.

Capitol Forged is a pretty new company. Havent heard much info on these. Could be either a good thing, or a bad thing.

Forgiato - Good quality with some very unique designs
VIP Modular - Clean styles and dependable
Asanti - Pass
360 Forged - Nice stuff, but a little on the pricey compared to the competition. If you could afford it. go for it.
iForged - Older company that been around for quit some time now.


My suggestions are Vellano. Quality of the product is excellent and customer support and service from Vellano is hands down, one of the best Ive ever dealt with. I rank Vellano's customer as high as HRE's customer service.

I will look into the Vellano, I dont care that much for Asanti. I just got a quote for the 360 forged and damn they are expensive. Not sure about iForged the styles dont really apeal to me much. I have not heard fo the VIP but will check them out. Forgiato has some really cool styles but may be a bit to flashy for me. Thanks for the info Sam. How is the Vellano stuff priced compared to the others?

Pay a little more for the Vellano and know that you have a great company that will back you up. The Vellano's should be less than the 360Forged.

Wow just checked out the Vellano's those are nice. They have a ton of styles to choose from. I will have to find someone that sells them.
