Made by 360 Forged, pictures by Jordans photo guy?

 

that brings the total to 129 forged wheel co's in Miami!
Just kidding, pics look great.

 

huh?

 

Welcome. I think what Dynamic was saying is that the pictures looks a lot like the 360 forged pics and they have a similiar benz to model their wheels.

Also your website is not ready for primetime

Is MIAMI the next Mecca for Wheel Manufacturing?

 

Not my shots guys.

 

Welcome!!
A few questions....
Do you have any third party test data on these wheels regarding load rating, radial and lateral durability, impact tests, etc. that you would like to share with the group?
Do the wheels comply with US Rim and Wheel standards including safety beads?
How about a speed rating?
Just curious....

 

LOL at the guy who posted above me. looks like these are built by COR wheels!

That Brushed Tinted finish is a dead giveaway!!

 

Not feeling those wheels, yes the website is juvenile, sorry.

 

Forget all that, I want to know how cheap it is to start my own wheel company out of Miami. These guys are either making a fortune making all these different brands or its just super cheap to start your company.

360 Forged seemed to have got successful through this method. Its surprising how many followers there are behind him.

 

True, alot of guys have jumped on the band wagon, all with different methods and marketing, but it's not easy at all. 360 has close $500k invested to get it to where it is today. And it's not just selling wheels, the hard part is the production end, warranty issues, deadlines, finishing, and running the business.

I wish Kranson luck, he's a good friend of mine, but like I always say when they ask "how did we do it", it aint easy! My team and I work 10-12+ hours a day to make this happen, my wife's about to divorce me for working too much...It's 4th of July and I'm at the office while all my buddies are at the Keys on the boat : (

Alot of these small companies have started and failed before you ever heard about them, it's a much more difficult business to run than you would think TRUST ME!

 

Thanks for the honesty man. We all know you have put a lot of time and money into your company. These comments across the forum are meant towards these smaller guys. I'm sure big companies like HRE are making a lot of money at this. It hurts companies like them when smaller guys like Modular Concept and Kranson come out with only hope to be successful, claiming to be just as great as the big guys like HRE. Those who have had a chance to take the HRE tour know that there is a lot more that goes into a wheel than just saying it needs to have 5 spokes and gold finished. They all claim to manufacturer in the USA and machine themselves in house, etc. I would rather buy from a company who tells the truth from the start than trying to inflate themselves bigger than they actually are. Knowing business well enough, this doesn't only hurt all the new "wannabes" who are popping out, it hurts everyone in the industry as it devalues and floods the market.

 

Thanks Jordan for your wishes toward kranson I really appreciate it.

 

As far as FORGEDWHEELER I had a long talk with him, I've asked him why is he personally attacking small companies like mine, I saw on this forum in the past he went after all small south Florida based 3 piece wheel companies challenging us to reveal our company test data. I asked him what is the reason for these attack, with this conversation I concluded that several bigger companies encourage him to do this I’m not going to mention any names of such companies as I don’t like to attack anybody. I also told him that test data is our company's proprietary information, to this day I have not seen a wheel company reveal such information ( including big wheel companies) also this information is not to be released out in public for other companies to examine. I assured him that he is more than welcome to visit me at my place of business to inspect any test data he wishes. I told him if he wants to save a little time he can contact STL (standard test lab) out of Ohio they can assure him we have all our product tested before we bring it out to the market. STL is one of the biggest test labs in the US, most oem automobile manufacturer have the products tested by stl. I also told FORGEDWHEELER that instead of having bigger companies encourage this types of attack, why doesn’t he starts a thread challenging every 3 piece wheel company to reveal their test data as I will be more than happy to comply if other bigger companies do so.

FORGEDWHEELER a lot of questions you are asking are steering consumers the wrong way. You know that 99 percent of US based 3 piece wheel companies used the same vendors. ESPECIALLY you :knowing that the company you work for supplies some of those material to companies like mine.

 

SPEEDAPPEAL I'VE also seen you reply to some of the smaller wheels companies thread and notice that you seem to have a small problem with a small 3 piece company getting some descent exposure. The comment you made about how much does it takes to start your own wheel company; I bet it was sort of a joke to you (a way of negatively make fun of a small wheel companies). I tell you what if you want to start your own wheel company let me know I can definitely help you out, if you are willing to sacrifice a lot of money and a lot of time. I've been in this business almost 11 years and put in about 14 hours a day and 6 days a week in this business. I have helped many wheels companies either get started or they used me as their consultant. I have several wheel brands out in the market for more than 2 years, my company as to this date has never experienced and faulty products problem because when I produce a wheel I concentrate in the function of the wheel and then I move on to form (aesthetics). And no my wheels are not manufactured in house, like 99 percent of the wheel companies out there I sub contract a well know cnc machinist to produce my centers. It’s just not cost efficient for me to operate my own machinery at this time. I don’t lie and make myself look bigger than what we are. I purchase forging from one of the 3 major forging facilities in California. These forging companies produced forging for 99 percent of the USA based wheel companies including some very big companies mentioned in this forum. Our wheels halves are purchase from another company in California that dedicated itself to producing wheel halves only. This wheel halves manufacturer supply 99 percent of USA based wheels companies including very big companies mentioned in this forum. The hardware that we use in our product comes from Italy since they seem to have the tech we need, so far is the best quality hardware provider, again used by many USA based companies. And yes I don’t have a 100,000 square foot facility for you to walk through, but you are more that welcome to visit my 6,000 square foot facility any time you want. My company not only produces a few wheel brands it also dedicates to rebuilt of most any 3 piece wheel out there in the market, we are also great in the wheel refinishing services. We that said either rebuilt or refinish if you own another brand of wheel we are more than happy to work on it. Our wheel brand is not intended to take over the world when it comes to sales, everyone that knows me should assure you that my passion is quality therefore I go by the saying quality not quantity. I can also assure you that since we are a low production company our customer service is one on one. So not only do we offer quality product we give our customers one on one service. I think that counts for alot. In conclusion I will like to add that what’s makes a wheel company is the quality of products they use, the testing they do and most of all the marketing they do. So please let a small wheel company like mine expose itself to this forum, because I think you are keeping a lot of consumers from experiencing a very good quality product and service.
<O> </O>
And to all forum member is there anything you need help with as far as wheels, whether is our brand or any other brand, let me know I m more than happy to help.

SPEEDAPPEAL my company is already a successful one so there is no hope here..

Oh another thing the bigger the company the more consumer spend on their wheels remember someone has to cover their overhead.

You seem to push a lot towards HRE do you have any special treatments there?

Thanks to 6 speedonline for letting us used their space.

sincerely
