Saw a post of them having issues, I would be extra cautious!

I have a set for a Z06 I just sold (and these wheels are now for sale) and the are beautiful. Very light...a good deal overall, but they did take longer than anticipated for delivery.

I have seen their "special Member pricing" pop up. I think you'd be better off either paying for BBS, or HRE. At their price point you may look at CCW as well.

Post on here and RL a ton (or used to). Plenty of pics but when folks have been asked about CS and quality, pretty quiet.

Proceed with caution.

Like many wheel companies some people have better experience and others. I found a post or two about them taking longer and having communication issues but I ordered anyway and seems to be very good so far.

Will keep you posted.
I think you'll have a good experience. Raz is nice and the wheels really are very, very nicely made. They were a few pounds lighter than my stock Z06 wheels and those are not all that heavy to begin with.

Just stay on him to get them done, that was a bit frustrating.

While we have not worked directly with Race Tech, we have a client who ordered a set on a project we built for them.. the wheels came out beautifully and seem well made, but did take quite a bit longer than originally quoted to produce. That is a fairly common issue for some wheel brands...

If you have any wheel questions feel free to shoot us a message!

watch out for RTF wheels...

I would watch out for Race Tech Forged as well. I called and spoke with Raz who uses a voip exchange. He had advertised specials for the the holidays with shipments by December 18th. When I called he stated it may take a little longer. Raz sent an incorrect order form from his accountant Carl. After making several corrections he asked that i pay via cash at wells fargo. I instead paid by pay pal.

Here is where it got shady. I made a payment to RTF at the email for their business acount per their instructions. Raz immediately called to apologize and stated that due to the previous owner no longer being around they did not have access. calling Pay pal as well as RTF calling pay pal I received a refund due to Raz's inability to get the money. They even tried to set up a RTF email at gmail but it was linked to the same RTF business account which was frozen.

I reached out and spoke with Gary as well and at that point we chatted about the hustle. I even shared emails.

Rennlist should have taken other complaints more seriously. There other threads that had red flags, most of which have been taken down. My guess is there is no money to sue Raz for and he will disappear and pop up under a different name.
