They are planning it for a specific lightweight competition line, but thats all I have heard of it. They are more focused on getting out their, and customer service has been the best I have seen out of a company in 4 years. They actually pick up their phones haha.

Wait till you see whats coming, they are bring 3 piece super concave wheels for reasonable pricing, finally someone took the hint that $6k wheels are just ridiculous. If you guys are seriously interested in purchasing wheels, let me know and I can show you the wheels.

what kinda pricing?

I have seen the car in flesh and have met 370zee, the car looks sensational in person.

If I hadn't gotten my Advans I would have ordered from Chris too

thanks for the feedback.. i am trying to find some time to organise a proper photo shoot (i dont know if its the camera or if 10megapixel just doesn't cut it) but the photos have come out real grainy - as if they're taken from a camera phone..
the diffuser is from Fujimura - really happy with it.. seemed like the evo-r had fitment problems - this was perfect fit.
the camber arms are spc..

the only thing im torn on now is that i've put a deposit on the F.I exhaust, but it is going to be way too low.. so i'm seeing if tony can modify it in anyway to get some more ground clearance without effecting the end product.. almost contemplating just getting hfc's and no cat back.. lets face it - the majority of the power is from the HFCS and the sound... well... the injen cai's give it good sound but i know that doesnt compare to an exhaust.. =(

Let me know when you are free we'll take photos of our cars together

Pricing depends on sizes, and certain finishes, but if your interested guys, just send me a pm and will work something out.

Those are hot. Holy lip batman!

Chris--can you shoot me a rough idea on what those guys are going for?

Chris_1 · 09-16-2010, 04:04 PM

Haha, I know Forged Specialties is AWESOME. These guys tell me one thing and bam, they do better. I will hint this for everyone, but in about 2 months I just want everyone to look out for these words being formed into wheels: SUPER and CONCAVE and 6.5" LIP!!!!!! OH DEAR.

Dan, I will pm you now. I assume the same sizes and all?

lemansz20 · 09-17-2010, 11:08 AM

OH man OH man. If being poor was not in my situation, I would be rocking these wheels. That lip is insane, and holy heck someone is actually gonna have a 6.5" lip? Man I gotta see that.

two tone wheels FTW

but you can get forged specialties in brushed aluminum or lots of other colors too. something for everyone.

370Z JT · 09-17-2010, 11:00 PM

I want Jeffblue's rims but with a step lip. Will eagerly await for it.

Chris_1 · 09-17-2010, 11:15 PM

Not going to happen for a while JT, they told me plans for a step lip are just not in the cards right now. From what I understand the primary focus is to deliver a clean product, and a quality product for much much more competitive pricing. I am sure it will eventually come, but they are just not doing it for now.

Flat lips are the new step lip.
