Its lasted since Nov '10! For the extra $300 go Fikse...do it once, done. Danny will work with you. I'll tell him to, if you get any lip, lol. You'll never need another set of wheels. Just dont pick the same color as djfury

I don't know man, there has got to be someone building great custom three piece wheels @ better prices. I'm looking at Damn near 5 grand or more for wheels not including tires for the staggered sizes I want. 19x9/9.5 and 20x10/10.5 rears

Tran I believe I posted in that thread. I remember those on his car. F05s were actually discontinued and I hate rivets even if their holding together a 3-piece wheel.

LPE I just home from vacation and had 2 emails from Danny since I talked to him last. Just got word the sale was ending this month. He is by far the best person I have dealt with regarding anything car related. I really want 18s though and for me to step up from 18s with tires it would be close to $600 more. Like I said it seems stupid mulling over $600 when Id be spending close to $4000 on wheels/tires but $600 more is alot when your a full time student and part time worker. I have been putting money aside for awhile just to get to this point.

Just bought a set of Iforged astras and dealing with theyre customer service was like having teeth pulled. I waited 10 weeks for my wheels. When they finally came 3 out of 4 were damaged from shipping. Iforged basiclly told me I was on my own and didn't return my calls or emails. I threatened them with a chargeback and they finally made the claim with ups. Well, I just got them back last week undamaged. They look great but I will NEVER buy another product from them again. Iforged customer service sucks big dirty ***.

Ya my brief experience with Iforged wasnt good either. They returned one email then never again once I asked more specific questions. 8-10 week build time is retarded if you ask me. What the hell takes so long..

I was going with CCW or Iforged and chose Iforged because everyone has CCW. I regret ever dealing with Iforged. They make a good product but I have never been so pissed buying anything.

I cant wait 8-10 weeks so I never even bothered going through with it. Everyone has CCWs on the internet but Ill be damned if I ever see another WS6 around my area nevermind one on CCWs.

Set of staggered Profil 10s for sale on here. Good price and no waiting time. Dont know how much I like the idea of 17s up front and 18s out back but its very very tempting.

Little late on this thread
Call me biased but 18" Senekas on a TA any day of the week
FM10s would be nice also but these flow with the curves of the car better imo

Ya I saw your wheels for sale before. I like them alot but Ive heard too many bad things about Iforged and the wait was silly in my mind. I held off on buying wheels until the winter anyway. Other things came up and I couldnt tie up $4000 on everything but im hoping winter will bring shorter build times as well.

I bought them second hand in the first place so no wait for me haha. Probably gonna keep em anyways, not costing me anything right now and they'd look killer on my SS now
Could always go for a slightly cheaper wheel

Love the SOM SS but I dont think you can beat FM5s on a Camaro. Sell the Senekas so you can lower that bad boy, get a CME, get a sweet grille, and still have some money for go-fast goodies. Im gonna buy a SOM SS one day.

All in the works, CME deal i had fell through so that might be a while but i got suspension goodies coming slowly and i'm still undecided on what grill. Might make another thread on that.

Recently on here Ive seen a black SLP grille with SS in SOM and it looked badass. That car was on chrome ZR1s too so I can only imagine the same setup on FM5s

Lol dumbest comment of the year award goes to......this guy. Everyone has them? Yes lol...everyone has 4000 dollar wheels on their car...but no one has ZR1 wheels right? Hahah...sure it may seem as though "everyone" has CCWs when there is a forum page dedicated to them, with people all over the world posting pictures of their ride on CCWs...but can you honestly say every time a Camaro/Firebird/Mustang pulls up next to you at a light it has CCWs on it? Because I come from a fairly large city and as far as I know I'm the only Cobra around here with them..
