A decent amount of Viper guys have 360 forged so I have seen a handful in person and it is a great looking and quality wheel. Their concave wheels are pretty sick. One of our local guys was a distributor but moved to Houston a couple years ago. His name is Andy Wheeler but I don't have a contact email or number for him anymore. He shouldn't be tough to find by doing a search.

My recollection of 360 Forged is that there was a lot of controversy surrounding this company and when there were a lot of outstanding orders existing, the company was then sold/bankrupt. In the following months, the previous owner (Jordan I believe) re-opened up shop as ADV.1. I haven't had any interaction with these companies myself, but I personally would be careful about ordering wheels from 360 Forged.

Just a few of the online review of this said "company":

do you need a 3 pc wheel??? Have you looked at VOSSEN. They arent going anywhere and have an amazing warranty and truly stand behind their products

Check out HRE or VIP Modular

I have a set of Weds Kranze Bazreias for sale if you're interested.

HRE will run you something insane like 7-8k probably. Not sure but I can only imagine what a 22" HRE would run.

I was going to say if someone says Vossen when the guy is asking about 3-piece wheels, my head was going to explode.... too late!!!

the 360 forged are in the same price range as modulars or HRE, so 7-8k is probably not insane to the OP haha

I asked if he really needed them. I had a bad experience with 3 pc very expensive wheels. Many of the shops I go to always say they are a pain and the seals will go bad therefore leading to slow leaks. You may want to ask yourself why you are seeing so many people with Vossen wheels. 3 pc styling ( fat lips, flat faces, and rolled lips) at a reasonable price. They arent cheap but they are reasonable and the company actually be around in the future, unlike many of the smaller " high end" 3pc wheel manufacturers who made crappy wheels for to much money and have disappeared . Just my 2 cents.


To the OP I hope you find a beautiful set. Good luck buddy

If you dint like three piece which I can agree on the 3 pieces, cop some 2 piece wheels which the barrels are one piece and the face is another, stronger but it just comes down to not wanting to rock what others are rocking, if everybody didn't have vossens then they would be hot!!! but the fact that everyone does make me as individual to go a different route.

The problem is everyone is using vossen wheels I want to be different with wheels with big lip I don't have a feel for concave wheels I would go with hre wheels but I'm not gonna spend 8-9 grand for them just sayin

PhatDad

I hear you but I'm on my 3rd set of 2 & 3 piece wheels with ZERO issues. My point was not to knock vossen wheels but it always amazes me how, know matter what a person comes on here and asks about high end wheels, vossen is always brought up in those talks. Vossens are not even in the same league as a 2 & 3 piece wheel. Not trying to hurt feelings, just speakin' the truth.

OP, there are some great wheels out there like: Forgiato, HRE, Asanti, etc. Within these builders there are tons of different configurations you can go with. Most of their sites will let you build the wheel to YOUR exact specs, offsets, colors, etc. You won't get that with a one piece non- forged wheel.

Hope this helps a little. Good luck and have fun!
