This rim costs an almost unbelievable £140,000! It’s touted as the most expensive wheel in the world, and for a few very good reasons…
The 18in rim is chrome plated and features 19 solid gold screws. In each screw is a 1-carat diamond gem, making 19 diamond carats per wheel.
AWR and jeweller Gerard Chopard Guillaumont build the rim, which takes around 100 hours to construct. A set of four wheels takes three months to complete, and deliveries have already started.
Unsurprisingly the first customers are believed to be the bling-hungry blokes from the Middle East.

I think the problem lies with RDM and not I-Forged.

Alot of the issues that iforged had at the begining have been resolved by moving into a bigger location that can handle the large amounts of orders that they receive for their wheels..I can say my experiance with iforged was very good and I would do business again with them..I also would like to add that I am really pleased the quality of their wheels...
