Default Pics of my new iForged wheels!

Aloha all, it's been a long time. Just dropping in to say hello for those who remember me...figured I'd share some pics while I'm at it.

Well my wheels finally got here. The order took quite a while to complete, but after speaking with Vince at iForged, I came to understand that there were a bunch of difficulties in getting the finish perfect. The correct blend for the powdercoat, the right amount of metallics, the prepped finish, etc....all together took quite a while to nail down perfectly. I am happy to report that iForged had them redone 4 times to make sure the finish was 100% before sending them out.

A big thanks to Vince at iForged and Aaron & Stacy at Nu Image Motorsports for getting the deal closed and for taking care of the mounting & balancing of the tires. I'll let you guys decide on the product.....








Aloha, Dave

Those are the best wheels I've ever seen on a Vette. Very nice. Now you need some drilled rotors. Can I ask where you got those wheels? Thanks.

Thanks, I'm planning on the 6/4 Baer kit in the next couple of years. So I will hold off on the drilled rotors for now. The wheels are directly from Vince @ iForged. If anyone is interested in a set let me know. I'd be happy to line you up with a good arrangement!

Aloha, Dave

Those are BADASS!

I havent really been much of a fan of painted centers, that I have seen. I like them, but not enough to buy. Those wheels look completely amazing. Love the finish.

I had to sell it. I mentioned I was thinking of selling it and the guy came back 2 days later with the full asking price + $500 in hand......so I was "Forced" to buy the Z06. I do miss the SS though.....wish I could've kept both.

That looks very very good. Probably the best looking Z0Sex I have ever seen.
