GewoW is on a distinguished road
360 forged quality

In particular...looking towards the "competition spec"...has there been any incidents on the track that anyone is aware of? Are they strong wheels?

Thank you in advance.

Very strong wheels for sure, but if you are planning on tracking your car, maybe go with something lighter weight and more designed for competition.

I want a street wheel that I can use on the track also...and their weights are said to be 20-21 lbs on the site..so that's pretty light to me.

check out our Forgeline ZX3-R, lightweight, designed for the track, also has an optional center cap for the guys that want to run them on the road for everyday driving.

Those are nice, but unfortunately they're not my style. The wheel spokes are a little too thick for my liking.

FWIW i just ordered the 360 Forged split seven, seems like those have a little more support with the 7 sets of spokes.

Not sure i plan to weigh them before i install them. I believe they said low twenties but it all depends on the width of the wheel.

No association with forgeline, except that I had a set of ZX3-Rs with lightweight barrels and jet nuts. 18 8,5 and 18 12, weighed 19lbs and 20.5 lbs respectively. Superlight, competition proven (not just "competition" in the name) great service, quick build time and well priced with the competition.

Whereas there is no doubt they're great, they just aren't my style.

Possibly you may want to look at a different style. Visit the Forgeline web sight to see if a different wheel is more your taste.

ummm, he's clearly interested in a set of 360 Forged wheels, why would you come in and try to take business from us like that? We wouldn't even think of doing that to you or any vendor. I see you're new to the forums, but that's not how we do things, you should know better.
