And this is why I'm afraid to get aftermarket rims since I plan on tracking my car. Don't want to spend like $4k on forged wheels. I'll probably just buy a set of the sport rays or Nismo wheels if anything.

COR's Brands:

COR Forged
AXIOM Forged
BESPOKE Forged

That is directly from COR Forged. If you want you can call and ask them... Strasse Forged is not on that list now is it?

OK man... I would think a vendor would be more informed. Unless you are just in denial.

I'll let the forum decide what they see as true and false in this thread.

So just for clarification, as a former vendor you are stating with 100% certainty Strasse is not cut/manufactured by COR, their centers in particular as Strasse outsources outer and inner from other sources.

I am stating that their wheels are cut on their own tooling and machinery. This is directly from the owners of Strasse Forged.

You are evading my question.

You should run for Congress.

Just popping in to remind everyone to keep the arguments factual and gentlemanly. It's going okay so far, but if things gets nasty we all know how it's gonna go.

Cheers

As someone that has been looking for wheels for my roadster, threads like this just make it even more confusing. What i take away from all the negative forged wheel failure threads is that one company makes wheels for every forged US Wheel "manufacturer" except for HRE and Kinesis.

I need a flowchart of brands.

So now the don't buy list is:

360 forged
ADV.1
COR - And any private label they make
MHT - and any private label they make

CCW cuts their own wheels. One of the best wheel companies out there.
